Holy crap...

If you've ever needed a reason NOT to have children...here it is.

First of all, let's take a closer look at the cute little girl known as Ella. Such a sweet, innocent little girl. Not a care in the world...big bright eyes...rosy cheeks....aaaawww....lets all take a minute and oooh and aaawww....

........
You done?

Okay, now that that's done. Let's take a closer look at the monster within....

Today, I put Ella down for her regular nap. I gave her a bottle and she went right down. Usually after about 20 minutes or so she will start fussing because her bottle is empty and she wants another one. So...after about 20 minutes she did start fussing. I waited about 10 more minutes so she would be good and tired and go right to sleep after I gave her a bottle, but when I opened the door.

Oh...

My...

Gosh...

Let's play "Guess What the Brown Stuff is??"


Chocolate? Noooo....


Pudding? No....


Brownie Mix? No....


Oh no...you don't mean its.....?


Oh yes. Yes, it is.


My sweet, lovely daughter decided that it would be a good idea to take off her diaper...and poop in the crib. Yes, poop in the crib. Then, she thought 'Wow! What an interesting texture! I think I'll finger paint with it on the wall!' Then she thought, 'Wow! That is fun....think I'll rub it all over me!' So she proceeded to rub it aaallllll over her. This picture does NOT do it justice, but I didn't think it would be a good idea to take time to pose her or anything.

Yes, she got poop on the wall...all over her crib....all over the inside of her crib...and all over herself: including in between her fingers, up and down her legs, in her hair, and on her tummy.

The kicker of it is....there was not ONE piece of poop or wetness in her fresh diaper. No, she made sure to get it ALL in the crib. If you look at the first picture, that is her diaper, neatly laid in the corner with her bottle on top of it.

I swear....I coulda killed her....except I didn't want to touch her 'cause she was covered in POOP!!!!

My question is: at what age do kids develop the sense of smell? Apparently not at the age of 1! Oh Laura, I can’t imagine how you felt, but think that she might be the next PICASSO???? :-) This memory of Ella is priceless. I'm glad you are keeping record of it :-)

Opps, that anonymous one was me (Iva). I selected the wrong identity by mistake :-)

That was so wonderfully, atrociously hilarious! Thanks for that. And I am so glad you took pictures. So glad. Now you have another great horror story from the trenches. :)
