A day of accidents

Sometimes posting about silly childhood incidents helps me feel better about them :). Therefore I am writing about our very accident filled day!

Warning: This is a story about all kinds of pee outside of the toilet within a 24 hour time frame. Words such as urine, aim, pee, and wet the bed are used in the content below. Read at your own disgust...or delight, since it didn't happen at your house ;).

Clay woke up covered in pee last night. He was not a happy baby. Somehow his diaper flap had come undone. So we changed his sheets and pajamas.

Then a little while later...

Hailey wets the bed every once in a while. This morning I entered her room and could smell that fragrance coming from her bed. There was no denying it!! She had wet the bed last night. So we washed her sheets and covers...

Then a couple hours later...

Estes elementary called. Seems that a certain kindergartener who is dependent on us for his care and upbringing had wet his pants at recess and was now in the nurses office. The nurse said "we don't have clothes small enough" for him (they have random extra emergency clothes at school I guess) so I was summoned to bring proper fitting clothes. I went and helped him change his clothes and took home a bag with his wet clothes....

Then a few hours later...

I walked through the kids' bathroom and could smell that (unfortunately) all too familiar smell! There was urine lurking in that bathroom somewhere and it was not in the toilet! I looked all around found a big puddle at the side of the toilet. Miles and I had a little chat about the importance of aim. "Aim for the toilet son! Only you can prevent puddles."

Phew, I sure hope I'm done cleaning up urine for today. Four different times and we're not even potty training anybody.(Although it probably sounds like we should offer a refresher course!)

I take pride in knowing that I took charge of and cleaned up all the pee mishaps though. I fought the good fight and finished the course.--and now our house is pee free and smelling good again!

And just for fun...some recent pictures of those sweet little urine leakers :).

Hailey has a new buddy to pal around with when Miles is at school.

 I'm going to make this super cool "morning jobs" chart for Miles so he

can remember what he needs to do to get ready for the bus without me reminding him. To make the chart I took pictures of him doing his daily routine. This one was pretty darn cute.

Good thing these kids are washable!

 

 

 

 

 

Family scripture study puts Hailey to sleep. Good or bad?

Ok, he's pretty cute. I think we'll keep him!

Get used to it Clay. She's not going to stop anytime soon!

I love being a mom!
