So I have my two youngest laying side-by-side on my bed. One is still wet, wrapped in a towel and smelling like baby shampoo. The other is awaiting his turn in the bath but before he makes his big splash I must take care of one detail: the unmistakable scent of two-year-old poop under his size 4 diaper. (
Odoriferous, wouldn't you say?)
As the diaper is removed from him, the newborn next to him - completely naked under that soft towel - is grunting up a storm. I try to console myself... "Well, at least I just saved the expense of a diaper."
Weston is now in the bath, and the sacrificial towel is saturated with stain remover. I must end this blog now, because our track record for
poop in the bathtub is not good. (We are up to two episodes in two weeks, now.)
On the bright side of infants and bowel movements (you mean there is a bright side? and a dark side?), this is
the first poop-or-pee-outside-the-diaper we have had in Drake's 6 weeks of life. (unbelievable! Not even a cheap shot mid-diaper change!) But there is a first time for everything.
I wonder when the first spit-up occurrence will be...?
