Pewy! Stinky!

Jadon's learning new things every day, and closely watching Derek and I all the time! His latest new learned skill is really cute.... of course everything he does is cute! In the past, whenever he would toot (fluff, fart, pass gas... whatever you care to call it), we would say "Pewy, stinky!!" and wave our hands in front of our faces like it was stinky. Now whenever he toots, and we say our "Pewy, stinky!" line, he smiles and waves his hand in front of his face! :)

Beautiful day gone sooooo wrong!!

Well it surprisingly turned out to be a beautiful day today! With that said, while Jadon was napping, I was able to go outside and get some flowers planted. I've been waiting to do that for a long time! Seems like its been a very long long winter, and that it doesnt want to go away!

ANYways, as I was sitting on my driveway planting flowers, there was one area that was pretty heavily bark-mulched. I start moving it around with my hands (I was not wearing gloves, I should add), and grabbed a clump that I thought was a rock, or a wad of clay. Our yard has been a real mess to deal with since the day we moved in because all of the soil in our yard is clay. So after years of experience with the clay, that is what I thought I had picked up. Turns out it was a nice, FRESH, yellow cat turd!!!!!!!!! I just stared at it in my hands for a minute, shocked at what was currently taking place in front of me, and awaiting that too familiar scent of cat poo. It never came though. For that, I was grateful! But ick, it was all over my hand, so I wiped my hand on the grass, then I hosed my hand off, then came inside and washed my hand twice, and I STILL feel dirty! YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!

This yellow mess was no doubt from a very LARGE cat....

Poop, and other things in that general area.....

One of the things I find very humorous about being a parent is that suddenly a great deal of your adult conversation is centered around your child's bowel movements! With that said, Jadon has recently discovered his winky, and so whenever I'm changing a dirty diaper, he likes to grab himself and giggle! He just thinks it is soooo funny! He's probably laughing at me though, because I'm trying to hold his legs and bottom off of the changing table with one hand so I can wipe him with the other, and then I see him reaching for his little soldier and I only have 2 hands that are both occupied so I try to tell him to not touch it yet since its dirty, but its already too late, so I groan in disgust. Oh but its not over yet!!! Now I have to really hurry to get him cleaned so that I can stop him from putting his now poopy fingers in his mouth! (As I'm sure most of you know, he LOVES to suck his fingers.)

So, now that he's discovered his winky, he also now has a new bath toy! ;)

Well, thats all for today! Have a great weekend!
