Oh, Crap!

It's been a long time since we had a diapering incident, other than several major blowouts in recent weeks.  Fortunately, all of those other incidents (like this one) had been of the #1 type. 

This all changed on Thursday evening, when I was changing a diaper Jonah dirtied during his 11:15 feeding. A bit of poo had escaped the top of his diaper, soiling pajama outfit #1.  I got that off of him and the area cleaned up, and was in the process of putting on diaper #2 (with pajama outfit #2 under him), when he let loose again.  Poo all over the inside AND outside of diaper #2, because as soon as I heard that sound, I moved my hands as far away as possible from the source while still being able to make sure he didn't roll off the changing station.  So much for diaper #2 as well as outfit #2!!!  Ben was up at this point and helped me extricate Jonah from the mess and select outfit #3.  Thankfully, Jonah had apparently finished his duties by that point and I was able to get the diaper and outfit on him without incident!  No wonder parents with children have mountains of laundry!

All you can do at moments like those is laugh. Or smile, like this little guy:

  2. haha, at least the diaper was there to catch it. Alex had one blowout when he was teeny tiny, at something like 4:30 in the morning, where nothing was blocking the gush. Talk about MAJOR clean-up... :)
