Madness #4--"Poop much?"

So, when we found out we were having a boy and told the world, the responses we got often revolved around the fact that we were going to get peed on.

We were told to invest in "Pee-pee Tee-pees", little covers that you put over a boy's pee-pee (for lack of a more appropriate word) while you're changing his diaper so you don't get sprayed. We even got a couple blue onesies that said "automatic sprinkler" on them. Pretty funny. And when it actually happened for the first time, we laughed our heads off.

But no one told me that he just might poop during a diaper change too! My goodness. That caught me off-guard. And he usually does it right as I'm about to wipe that adorable little butt of his. It's like a fun surprise--but not the kind of surprise you want to get.

I guess this is a warning to all new moms or moms-to-be:
If you're doing a routine diaper change and your child starts grunting and turning red, strap that diaper back on and wait it out. You'll be glad you did, no matter how deadly that stink gets. Count your blessings. At least the stink won't be on YOU.
