Setting: my house
Time: about 2:30
Scene: I am getting Alex and Gavin ready for naps. I change Gavin's poopy diaper and then I change Alex, but he escapes before I can get the fresh diaper on him. Not concerned, I let him enjoy his favorite pastime of running around naked while I feed Gavin his bottle. Then I take Gavin upstairs and put him in his bed. I come back downstairs and take Alex upstairs, nurse him, and put him in his crib. Meanwhile, I go and make dinner (check it out at serendipitykitchens.blogspot.com).
Two hours later I hear Alex crying so I go upstairs and lift him out of his crib. He has something on his face and I say, "What were you doing, eating chocolate?" That's when the smell finally hit me..."Oh no! I forgot to put a diaper on you!"
Yes, I did it, or should I say didn't do it...he was diaper-less for a good 2 hours, in his bed, sleeping most of the time, but from the looks of the brown fingerprints on his singing dog and all over the crib, he had a little play-date with the poo-monster as well. It was the biggest poopy mess i have ever had to clean up. This is coming from someone who has been sprayed in the face with poop.
Needless to say, Alex got a bath and Gavin woke up and had pooped (again!) and so he took a bath with Alex as well. They had a great time crawling around naked afterward.
Here is Gavin in front and Alex in back.
Here is the little poo-man himself.Moral of the Story: Don't put a baby to bed without a diaper on.
I am hoping this story will help Megan feel a little bit better when I say I understand how she feels. Luckily, Heavenly Father gave us a sense of humor.
