    Is it a sad commentary on our status as a new parent that I have to claim if it was me or the baby that dealt the fart cloud?

    Sometimes it’s evident it was an adult fart but my boys belt out some major tunes.

  2. H* says:

    what a big truth!

  3. It is entirely possible I *may* have said this exact same thing to my hubby. :)

  4. Megan D. says:

    I have said this to my hubbers on several occasions lol

  5. Stephanie K. says:

    It’s very true! Baby farts are super cute!! Any other fart is yucky…

  6. Christina says:

    I think its the grin that comes after… Especially a newborn farting…lol that smile cracks me up every time.

    And my toddler…”Pooping?” is his response to every one of his farts. Totally cute.

    This question pops up at our house all the time. Kid farts just sound funny, and make them laugh, and that makes us laugh. Cute! Grown up man farts turn the clean Febrezey fresh atmosphere into a dank, heavy, Louisiana summer next to the sewage plant. More of a health concern than family fun sounds.

      Why is it that only men get picked on for farts. My wife can clear the room as well, and I have know many women that can.

      • Russ says:

        I truly wish that was the scenario at this house. It would really help my case. Regardless, I love talking about farts, so thanks for the post! :)

      • Christina says:

        I don’t fart as frequently, but mine are severely more smelly than the husbands…lol

        Especially after ice cream or chinese takeout. Or when I’m pregnant. Or when I’m PMSing…

        Yeah…I think that’s it.

        Because I bet you still fart more than she does! And it’s so true, grown up farts are gross but little munchkin farts are cute. And recently my 2 year old has started blaming his smelly ones on the cat. All on his own. The cat farts more than my husband does.

    “…because Finn doesn’t eat bratwurst, Honey.”

  9. Danielle says:

    Best when you can blame it on the baby’s poopy diaper.

  10. Alan says:

    Our six year old son has already become skilled at blaming on the dog.
    I am filled with pride.

    Dude,

    isn’t bigamy illegal (even in Utah)? How come in the “my wife said” section you have 2 names mentioned (Avara and Elizabeth)?

    Being a newbie dad myself, i enjoy your blog immensely.

    • Andy says:

      Uhhhhh… Because there are two dads who run this website. My wife is Elizabeth (Lizzie) and Charlie’s wife is Avara. Glad you’re digging the site!

  12. Susan says:

    My son’s farts smell the same as my husband’s farts.

  13. [...]   I accidentally posted this quote twice. The earlier one is here. [...]

    Funny….usually when my children fart I say to my husband “Continuous proof that they are indeed yours”
