Who's my googly woogly baby dumpkins? *Who's* my googly woogly baby dumpkins? |

Some of you might know by now I'm a new dad. Well, I swore when I became a dad that I would not be one of those people who insist on talking to their babies in that high pitches falsetto gaga language you hear people using. I was going to speak normally to my son, in the hopes that by talking normally it would speed up and increase his language comprehension and teach him that the normal sound of my deeper voice is more soothing and pleasant than high pitched squawking. Little baby Mainegreen was not going to be some dumb kid who thinks mindless tele-tubby style sing-song ranting is cool.
Well, that didn't work out. Evidently babies come preprogrammed to love that high pitched nonsense and have a highly effective system of training you, the parent, to engage in the loathed behavior by crying, forcing you to rapidly shift through many entertainment techniques until finally, in desperation you cry out in that high register "Who's my baby-waby diddums?" to finally be rewarded with the stoppage of crying and the commencement of smiling and giggles.
.....
So who's my googly woogly baby dumpkins?
:P
