Last Monday I was sitting at the table cuddling with Kyle. Tim was at the sink washing bottles. All of a sudden Kyle let out a BIG toot. everbody knows what comes after toots! I was holding Kyle in my lap and I guess his diaper was half wedgied up his bum, because there was a poop EXPLOSION all over my leg! It dribbled down my legs, onto my feet, then hit the floor. I couldn’t move for risk of more poop going everywhere, so I waited in disgust for Tim to finish what he was doing. He then came to my rescue with rags a-plenty and wiped up the mess enough to get Kyle to the changing table.

We cleaned Kyle up and decided it was time for a bath since he made quite a mess of himself over the last day. We fixed his bathwater, nice and warm as usual. Tim stuck him in the water and began to wash his cute naked baby body. I was standing in my skivvies washing my soiled, poopy pants in the sink before a good load of laundry. As Tim was soaping up Kyle’s top half, Kyle let the bottom half loose. It was like a fire hose…. a well aimed fire hose. Not a drop was splashed on Dad (who you’d think was in the direct line of fire), but a direct hit was delivered to Mom. Awwww, what love. Insult added to injury. All we could do was laugh… and laugh hard.

We’re awaiting poop story #3. I’m sure it’ll come sooner or later.

Kyle had some serious playtime tonight! He LOVES to play ‘eat the pacifier’ with me. I hold the pacifier about a foot from his mouth, and he opens his mouth expectantly. I make ‘wooosh’ noises and stick it in his cute, gaping maw. He closes down, then promptly spits it out so we can play again. The cycle repeats until he gets tired. He smiles alot during the ‘game.’ It’s sooo cute!

Meghann still needs to post her other Poo story. (no not the Winnie kind)

Kyle had more visitors this weekend. His Uncle Rob and Aunty Alisha came for a short visit from Northern California. We had a very nice time with them. Kyle sure thought they were cool! He even felt comfortable enough to spit up on his Aunty! :p

We took some adorable photos “here”:http://www.labrodeurs.org/photos/2005-09/Auntuncle/

Kyle’s Grandma came for a visit this weekend. He really loved her company! I’m sure the feelings were mutual. Of course we took some photos. Click “here”:http://www.labrodeurs.org/photos/2005-09/Grandma/ to see them.

Meghann has another poop story to tell. This one adds insult to injury at the end. I’ll let her tell it again. Let me just say that the kid has good aim (for not hitting Dad). :p

Here’s the poop story Tim alluded to… Last Saturday, we made the first family trek to Costco. Kyle was an angel the whole time! We knew he was going to be hungry when we got home, so Tim ended up putting the groceries away while Mom fed Kyle. You may not know that Kyle for some reason likes to do his “business” while he’s in Mom’s arms, eating! (Great Grama Cecka also seems to have the magic touch with Kyle and poops!) So, on this Saturday, Mom’s sitting on the couch with Kyle and he’s being his usual little “chow-hound” self. As he nears the end of the bottle, he starts tooting… Mom knows what’s going to come next! Here comes the poop! Kyle doesn’t want to finish his bottle at this point because he’s concentrating on his poop. Isn’t that what all babies do? So, Mom, after waiting 10 minutes, thinks Kyle’s done with his monster poop decides to change him. So, we go to Kyle’s room and get set for his diaper change. Mom gets his diaper off and is reaching for a wipe to clean up the poopy mess and silly Kyle starts to pee on Mom! So, I yelped and started to grab for a cloth to cover him up to stop the pee! As I reach down to grab the cloth, I see a bit of poop coming out of Kyle. Uh, oh!! You should also know that Kyle has lots of gas too. Then……. an EXPLOSION of poop comes shooting from Kyle, down the changing table and onto the wall! I yelped again and yelled for Tim to come, and bring the Lysol wipes! What a mess that was! Poop was everywhere! Silly boy! And silly Mommy for not waiting long enough to change Kyle’s diaper. What do you do but laugh? That’s all we could do, all the while cleaning up the mess!
