Potty Humor

Who knew that such a tiny baby girl could make so many dirty diapers!!

Faith does not tolerate wearing a dirty diaper. If she's screaming it's either because she is hungry or because she is dirty. She is becoming notorious for waiting until her diaper is off for her to have a bowel movement. I wish I had the video camera the other day when it all started! I came into the nursery where Alan was running around frantic trying to get new clothes out of the closet while Faith laid on the changing table pooing away! I stepped in and tried to help. I grabbed her legs and lifted her hiney up to remove all the soiled linens out from under her when Alan approached the table. Just then, she let it blow! There was poo all across the changing table, it hit the wipes bucket and everything else at the foot of the table, passed the table and landed behind the rocking chair! She just barely missed her Daddy and he's yelling at me to put her legs down! It was pretty hysterical! She has since done this many times. We may have to put up Plexiglass at the end of the changing table to have to keep from cleaning the carpet as much!

She also enjoys waiting until she has a clean diaper on to immediately use it, sometimes we can't even get her clothes changed before she's screaming for a new diaper! We can go through 3 diapers before getting off the changing table!

However, you know you're a mommy when you have to go out in public covered in your child's urine! Friday I had my 2 week post partum c-section visit at the doctor's office. Before I headed in leaving Faith and Alan in the car, I changed Faith's diaper. Now I pondered laying all the pads out incase she decided to go with her diaper off, but I thought I could swing it with no problem. Sure enough as soon as I took her diaper off, she peed in my lap! I had to walk through the clinic building and into my appointment with a wet crotch! Oh well...welcome to Mommyhood...right? Anyway, as much work as it is, I love her and wouldn't change it for the world!
