Pooptastrophe

Today's pooptrastrophe is brought to you by the letter 'G'.

I have learned from weeks of practice with Little G to give it some time after I hear the initial squirt because one of the things he just looooves to do is poop in a clean diaper. And sometimes the next clean diaper after that. But today will go down in the history books.

Urbandictionary.com defines poop as:

"a large, atrocious enormous blob of brownish stuff that comes out of your a** in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes crawling out, other times catapulting out, creating huge splashes."


Yes, you read that right. Catapulting out. Creating huge splashes. That is what went down (or out, rather) this afternoon. I was almost done cleaning him up when he let out a squirt. A HUGE squirt that came flying out all over his changing table and all over me. I wasn't even standing that close to him - my body was a good foot away from the exit. It's like they teach you in driver's ed: leave enough distance between you and the car in front of you. Well, the same principle applies to diaper changing. I kept my distance and had the clean diaper underneath to cover the danger zone, but my safety measures were not enough. I wasn't adequately equipped to handle today's situation.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the evidence*:

It was AWFUL. The amount of poop that came out in addition to what he had ALREADY released was insane! And the force! I stood there dumbstruck (and covered in his poop) for a few seconds before calling for back-up. G decided to add some more (the more the merrier, right?) and to top it off with a nice pee. Thank goodness I had already contained his "business."

But seriously, do I need to start wearing this when I change his diapers from now on???




Little G is a lucky little boy that even after all of that...
