The Trifecta of Bodily Functions
I've been piddled on. I was nearly pooped on. And now I've been thrown up on.
Last evening we went out for a few hours and when we got home and took Asher's coat off we found him sopping with sweat. Poor baby - we'd totally overbundled him! Then I took him upstairs for a feeding, since it'd been a whole 3 1/2 hours since his last meal, and, boy, did he eat and eat and eat. When I took him over for a diaper change afterward, he nonchalantly looked up at me and spewed all that milk he'd gorged himself on - the milk I'd worked so hard on making! - all over me, himself, and the floor.
I now feel officially welcomed into motherhood. And I know it's only going to get grosser.

Oh, just wait...it only gets worse. There was a day when I changed shirts five times.
Adam wants to know if Asher is giving you "The Stink Eye"? I think is is amazing that he is already making such animated faces! How precious!
P.S. Here's a little tip that works for me. I have found the Em gets too hot in a coat and her bundle me if we are in a store or restaurant too long. On cold days, instead of a coat, I have been putting a flannel or fleece blanket under the bundle me for extra warmth outside but can be taken off easily once we are inside.
Yay, spitup! Poor little thing.
Kim, we overheated Rowan once too, early on. I had him swaddled in a thick blanket and also put a space heater in his room. When when he woke up, his chest was covered with a heat rash. Doh. We didn't do that again.
Rule is, if you'd be hot they're going to be hot! Of course that rule doesn't apply if your Dawn, saying she's always cold! (: Cute expression Asher!! Hopefully you're free next Friday Kim, I'd love to come over and visit with Asher, oh and you too!!!
