flea

I was zooming through a Natter thread from ages ago, and ran across a story David told once of scooping a baby Emmett from bath to diaper to bed, only to realize upon a midnight changing that what looked like blue poo was, in fact, a blue rubber fish toy that got scooped up with baby.

So, a hairbrush, although outlandish as these things go, does not hold the record for WTF parental brain-fry moments.
