Diaper Changing Lesson Learned!

Abigail - 3weeks old

This week has been an adventurous one for Abigail and Staten and I!

We now understand why it is a good idea to change babies diapers on the changing table EVERY TIME there is a diaper change. I had been changing Abigail's diaper on my bed at night and early in the morning. I was very careful. I placed a blanket each time underneath her just in case she might have an accident. I did not however account for what to do if I am wiping her sweet behind and it is placed up in the air for perfect aim toward me. Yes-me! And I am not talking about urine ladies and gentlemen, I am talking milky, breastfed poop shot straight onto my shirt, legs, sheets, and the so-called protective blanket. I yelled out another word for poop, so Staten came in the bedroom to see what was wrong. He picked Abigail up by the blanket and carried her and half of the poop with him. Great husband right!! Yes, I think so. He cleaned her up while I changed clothes and the sheets on the bed.

Staten's sister, Jennifer, also known as Jelo, came to visit this week! I was very weary about taking Abigail to Wal-Mart by myself, so I asked her to come with me to give me pointers and keep us company. Poor Abigail had to endure the Wally World of Germs. She did very good. Slept through the whole thing.
