It's Officially #1

I can officially say, Jete had the worst dirty diaper of his whole life today! A little background info first....He has been struggling going to the bathroom for such a long time. Usually when he tries to go, he grunts and pushes so hard his face gets all red, and he just freezes in that position. And if he's lucky, he drops a "little nugget" as we call it. Today as i was talking to my sister on the phone, i saw him freeze, but he wasn't turning red, so i thought oh, he hasn't started yet. I was feelin all bad for him cuz it's so hard for him to go. A couple minutes later i got off the phone and picked him up to smell him to see if he had actually pooped. To my surprise....my hand felt a warm sensation as i touched his back. I checked and yep, poop half way up his back! Most people probably get that "Aghh!!!" feeling about now, and when he was littler, i used to too. But now that he has this issue with going the bathroom, i was kind of happy. That means his stomach doesn't have to hurt cuz he's all cleaned out. Well my thoughts quickly changed. I took off all of his clothes but his onesie. Wow. I didn't even know where to start. I could tell this was going to be tricky, especially because he did not want to lay down. So i started by taking a picture of him with my phone and sending it to Had to show him what he was missing out on. My sweet husband, I love him so much. He texts me and instead of laughing and saying "Glad it's you not me", which i was fully expecting (though he probably secretly was thinking that), says he's sorry he can't be there to help me. Anyway, after procrastinating for about 10 minutes, and my house really starting to wreak, I decided to tackle the monster.
He has had bad diapers before, and poop up his back millions of times (This one wasn't only up his back, but up his front, sides, legs, everywhere!) but the reasons this makes the #1 worst diaper: he can roll over, sit up, maneuver his hands to places he wants to put them, and it was a thick runniness if that makes sense. All of these combined makes for a very difficult and disgusting changing session! I layed a towel down cuz i knew it was gonna get messy, but i had no idea. WHen i took his onesie off, he saw it and started trying to get it with his fingers. I was trying to wipe as fast as i could, but he was so fast. I tried as best as i could to not get any poop on me and to keep it off his hands. I cleaned off his back and sides as good as i could get in 2 seconds, and layed him down. Whew, made it past that part. Then i had to actually take off his diaper. As soon as it came off, his little hands dodged my arms that i put up as baracades, and his tiny fingers instantly found what i did not want them to. I hurried and grabbed for another wipe with one hand, holding his feet in the air with the other so that i could wipe off his hands again, and he rolls over and puts his fingers in his mouth. Jete got it in his mouth! Aghh! I wanted to puke for him. He made the funniest face i've ever seen, and then started crying. After that, so much for me trying to be careful and not get any on me. Oh man, poo was all over everywhere. I know this is getting long, so to finish off the rest of the story cuz it sure didn't end there, everyone and everything was cleaned up and smelling good after only using 12 wet wipes, a dirty towel, a soapy bath, a soapy sink (with toys from his bath), scrubbed carpet, a clean diaper, pajamas, baby lotion, and a batch of laundry. Oh the joys of being a mom!
