Men are taking a more proactive role in parenting these days. Forty years ago, 43 percent of men had never changed a diaper or dressed an infant. Now, that number is down to only three percent. That is huge but creates hilarity in the learning curve as men adapt to this new parenting role. Fortunately, the baby won’t remember those moments when dad dresses them funky.

Placing a beanie on backward is a simple mistake. After this video, I’m sure Dad won’t do that again when he dresses the baby. However, there are many other ways to declare that the dad dressed the baby.
When the dad is clueless, it can make for funny parental moments. But not all dads are entirely clueless. One dad has a baby girl and takes extra time each day picking out the perfect outfit. As if that wasn’t awesome enough, he also coordinates his own clothing choices to match what he dresses his daughter in!
Some dads, unsure of their own choices, might confide in a fashion-conscious five-month-old infant to help them make choices. This dad holds up outfits for his young daughter and selects an outfit based on her smile reaction. Genius!
Some dads take a bit longer to get into a routine with dressing the baby. On his third child, this dad still can’t grasp that the onesie snaps go inside the pants.
It is great to see dads embracing a more sharing role in parenting. They are learning, and (while we can’t stop ourselves from laughing) we should continue to encourage them. They are doing a phenomenal job of stepping up. Kudos to every dad who dresses their baby!
Please share if you laughed.
