Just say no to "Reverse Lion King" sans diaper (this post is pointless)

MPJR91910 · January 2013

I'm going to start by reiterating that this is a stupid and pointless post. However, I am bored at work and feel the sudden need to warn others who, like myself, tend to do things without thinking. Also, I've never really introduced myself here, so please forgive me for being one of those newbies who posts something weird right off the bat.

Here goes:

Lately, LO has gotten really excited any time he is held at or above my eye level. This is probably the result of playing rocket ship a few too many times, but he likes it. He especially loves being held the way Rafiki held baby Simba in the opening scene of The Lion King, only without the cliff, and usually I hold him facing me (thus my calling it the "Reverse Lion King" hold).

Anyway, fast forward to last night. I undressed him for his bath, and out of habit I picked him up and held him in the RLK hold and talked/sang to him (it may or may not have been the Circle of Life song...). After a few seconds of this, I realized the error of my ways when I narrowly escaped getting pee-pee right in my mouth. This was an obvious risk that I hadn't considered, despite getting showered by LO countless times. So, in case you are tempted to do the same, just be warned.

That is all.
