Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for July 09, 2024

Hᴀ-Hᴀ!

he deserves a treat for that

3⠄⠄⠄ was he planning to share?

Hammie, good one!

At least she didn’t answer, “Not NOW.” (It’s always “now”, so basically: NEVER!)

He’s not as close to his dinner now.

How far away does he have to be?

I once told eldest son to lower his voice, whereupon he put his head near the ground and resumed speaking at the same volume.

So literal at that age.

Ask for 3, maybe settle for one. Good strategy, giving you both a sense of victory.

And when he’s told to get a way from Zoe, he moves an inch.

Wanda, you are a parent, what part of just saying NO do you not understand?

Now that’s thinking outside the box — or the house, anyway!

funny

Panel Three, Hammie looks like he’s in “Ten Cats!”

Who makes hot delicious melty cookies wafting incredible smells so close to dinner time and doesn’t allow anyone to eat any?

Either a sadist or an apartment complex salesperson….

Just wait until they’re cold, hard and less appetizing as an after dinner desert…

Hammie’s future memoir : “Traumatizing Cookie Dough”

Calvin-esque, for sure.

Yep, she should have said dinner time.

Cute

3? Not one? or some? Must be an Ernie Bushmiller thing…

Start with three expecting to be talked down to two.

Good one Hammie. Always thinking.

A for Effort. Didn’t work for me either.

The format for this list of comments looks odd. Everything is centered. ??? Wanda should have Hammie read some Amelia Bedelia books.

What I wanna know is: who uses tongs to remove cookies from a pan??

I like his thinking.

why is he so tall in the second panel?

is it just me or is this spanish
