The Joys of Motherhood

Let's begin by saying if you have a weak stomach you may not want to read this! It all started while we were in Phoenix, I rarely give Lily a bath (my bad shoulder) so Ryan has always done this and never has this happened to him. Lily had a blow-out in the tub! YUCK! Thank goodness Grandma was there to help out!

Tonight, was the mother of all YUCKS! Lily was in her jumper when the prunes she ate for dinner hit. She was having a wonderful time jumping! I thought I smelled something while I was on the phone with Ryan, he's in Tucson right now. After hanging up with him, I decided I better tackle the diaper because since I'm by myself nobody else was going to change it! Let's just say the poopie made it out of her diaper and up to her shoulders. I was trying to figure out how in the world am I going to get this onesie off of her??? Should I call my friend Jill? No wait, she doesn't do well with poopies. I ended up remembering a story Joy Tomochek told me about having to cut off of her daughter's clothes. Yep, that's what I ended up doing. Of course then I run out of wipes, I'm trying to keep her from laying down and reaching for a new package of wipes. I ended up getting her cleaned up, Lily enjoyed her nice warm bubble bath! I think I need a nice warm bath now! So the next time you are having a bad day think of me cleaning up "Jumper Prune Poopie"!

You should have called. . . . I had a great idea.. Take Lily out and roll her in the snow, then put her in a warm bath. :) Okay--really just stick her in the bathtub clothes and all, then take her crap filled clothes off in the tub.
