Ah, a baby’s floppy-headed stage. There’s nothing more nerve-wracking than putting a shirt on a baby with an elastic neck and soft spots on his head. It’s like aiming for a moving target of Jell-O … on two hours of sleep. Of course your reflexes are off.

 

You move left … he flops right. Go right … and he does a surprise maneuver. His head falls forward and he spits up all over you and that cute little shirt you are trying to get over his head. Game over. That little bugger.
