His Blanket Response

(My two-month-old son keeps kicking his blankets off, unless I swaddle him really tight. As we live in a basement, it gets rather cold at night, so this is a problem. He also doesn’t smile much, looking at everything very seriously. My husband is getting exasperated, after the fifth or sixth time he’s replaced the blanket in ten minutes.)

Husband: “Honestly, child, do we have to pin the darn thing on you?”

Baby: *gives the biggest grin we’ve seen to date, and coos happily*

Me: “Did he just…?”

Husband: “Yes. Yes, he did. ”

Me: “Don’t look at me; he’s your son!”
