Diaper Explosion Monday!

Just another crazy Monday morning. I woke up and got ready for work and shortly after Ryan awoke. Greg picked him up out of the crib and gave him to me "gotta let the dog out" and he was off.... Yeah and our child was super stinky! How Greg could not tell I do not know. But I have a super sensitive nose these days and I can smell poo a mile away almost immediatly as soon as you open the door. So I put our stinky boy on the changing table and un zipped his jammies and I knew it was an explosion. It was all over his onsie up his back and up his belly....sorry to be so graphic I tried and tried to wipe him off (I think I used like 8 wipes) no such luck so I made an executive decison to give him a half bath..yep in the bathroom sink. Which was sort of a bad idea but frankly I was too lazy to give him a full tubby so the sink just had to do in a pinch. I could see my breakfast time escaping me as I tried my hardest to scub his bottom, back, and belly in the sink whch was overflowing at this point. Picture a 30 chubby baby in a tiny bathroom sink...yeah it was a sight to see. All the while he was grabbing at anything and everything. And of course my worst nightmare. He managed to grab Greg's toothbrush and put it in his mouth (remember he just got over that nasty stomach bug a few days ago?) Yeah so I nearly lost it. I had reminded him last week to throw it out and get a new one but I guess he forgot (I immediatley put it in the trash). Needless to say if Ryan gets away not getting the bug this time around I will clearly diagnose him with having an iron stomach!

Oh well I managed to have breakfast after all. Scrambled eggs and toast with jelly. It is the only way to calm the nausea I have to eat a lot of protein in the morning. And sometimes I actually dream aobut breakfast at night too. Odd I know. But there was a time when Ryan loved scambled eggs but sadly those days have come to an abrupt end. He no longer will even look at an egg. So I ended up sharing my toast with strawberry jam and he loved that of course then off to work. And to top it off I was only 10 minutes late to work but there was no way I could skip breakfast. Those days right now are over. Although I was the last of the Dr.s to show up usually I am the second but no harm done. Dr. W and Dr. A are almost always running later than me but not today. Oh well it is turining out to be a good morning anyways the sun is out and the weather is suppossed to be nice.

Not to much to report over the weekend. Greg recovered from his illness you guessed it on the golf course Sat. I was feeling so so so over the weekend so Ryan and I sort of layed low and napped. We did go to Sakura our favorite Japanese hibachi restaruant on Saturday. Ryan was so scared of the fire. He winced and almost cried and leaned towards me while in his highchair for comfort. It was really cute there was another boy across the table about 17 months old and pretty much him and Ryan had the same reaction to the fire. Ryan loved the food. The noodles are his favorite and he even ate some steak and chicken. He enjoyed dipping his apple wedges in the mustard sauce. Yesterday we went to Sunny Daes for ice cream. Boy did Ryan love it. I ordered a small vanilla soft serve and he managed to hijack my entire cone and eat most of it. He could not get enough then we hit the mall for some last minute touches on Mother's Day gifts.

I made frozen chicken patties for dinner last night b/c I was too tired to cook and I though Ryan might enjoy them they were similar to chicken nuggets only patties instead. Well I cut some up for him and gave him some ketchup and a few apple slices. Guess what he did with the ketch-up...no interest in the chicken...liked the apple....but decided to scoop the ketch-up with his hands and eat it straight up...then demanded more. I tried to dip the chicken in the ketchup but this resulted in him licking the ketch-up off and spitting the chicken out. So what did our son eat for dinner last night? Mutiny due to ice cream and mall snacking. Ketchup and apples...yum yum. The things toddlers do is so bizzare especially when it comes to food. Hopefully he will eat better for Polina....the child practically eats her out of house and home!
