Thanks to
everyone who asked about James, he is feeling much better now and his appetite
is slowly coming back. He had a few bites of cereal this morning, avocado
as a snack, then some sweet potato & chicken for lunch, some of
mommy's chicken and rice, and a few bites of cereal for dinner. I am pleased
with his progress so far. :) Plus throughout the day he's been munching on
Gerber Graduate Puffs (the strawberry apple ones are delicious, I even like
them) and Cheerios.
While I was tidying up in the kitchen earlier this afternoon, James was playing on the living room floor like he normally does. He was chatting away, then I heard him do his usual strain so it was time to poop. Once he was done I went to change him. I touched his but to see how heavy it was, but didn't really feel anything, but I knew there was poop since there was a strong smell. Once I took off his pants I saw the explosion all over his shirt and legs. Uh-oh was what I was thinking. I quickly started wiping hoping that James wouldn't get to the poop before I did, but there was so much I couldn't get it all. This resulted in him grabbing the poop with his hands and smearing it everywhere. The whole time James was screaming/crying at the top of his lungs. I knew I was in a losing situation and with this type of explosion there is only one way to clean him... bath time!
So I picked him up, poop and all and proceeded to get the tub. Luckily I had cleared the dishes from the sink so I just needed to set the water. As I was doing that I felt warm water on my belly then my leg and feet. Before I could sit him in the tub he had peed all over me! I looked down and could see the poop on my shirt and wet spots covering the rest of me. You'd think I'd be disgusted or hysterical at this point, but I wasn't. James was doing what he's supposed to do and who could get mad at him for that! So before I put him in the tub I held him close and kissed him. Only a mother could still kiss her baby after all that!
As a side note: I was debating taking a picture of my clothes for the blog, but I think it would have been too gross. Instead I threw them in the wash which was the right decision! Right?!?! Lol!
