So not everything that happens in our usual day involves bodily fluids, but for some reason those are the memories that stick with you as you finish out a day. Today was a good day. I am dreading going back to work next week, but I have witnessed first hand how great of a mom Lesley is and I know that she will be everything Emily will ever need!
Most of my time with Em today was spent resting or napping together. During our second such napping session she gave the now familiar squirm, accompanied my the rumble below, and after a few brief groans had a look of satisfaction and fell back to sleep. Usually I return the favor, shift in the recliner, let out my own 'relief', and dream away.
About ten minutes pass and I notice that the warm feeling from Emily's bottom isn't really going away- so I check it out and realize that something went horribly wrong. She has a nice 4 inch spot on her cute cherry outfit. Somehow she sprung a leak... luckily I had a blanket between us that absorbed all the 'fun juice' and I was left unscathed. As I called for help and Lesley swooped in we worked fast and furious to get her clean and avoid further contamination. OH NO- it is now on her socks, oops- it has spread to more of her blanket... In the rush to get her clean I forgot about her bloomers and reached down and got a big, full-palm, sasquatch load of butt-mud. We are now officially in the stinky diaper phase, so I instantly squealed like a little girl and ran off to the bathroom leaving Les to fend for herself (sorry baby). Finally we got her all clean and had another great day with our happy, healthy baby!
God is good- even when poop seeps through a diaper!
