sigh

Today was bath day for Greyson. Since he doesn't enjoy a bath we have taken Tonks advice and started just bringing him into the shower with us. I sit cross legged in the shower and soap him up and then get under the stream to rinse. It works really well and he actually seems to enjoy it and find it relaxing. So relaxing that immediately upon being placed in the towel in dad's arms Greyson proceeded to take a giant poop. Thus soiling his only moments old, clean bum. At first we just wiped him off and thought - well, good enough. It wasn't. As soon as we had him clean a second time he pooped for a second time. Back in the shower we went. This time he stayed clean long enough to get a diaper on.

Oh my. :)

Mr. Tonks used to refer to those as "code browns!" Believe me when I tell you that it's better to have it happen in the shower than when they're fully immersed in the tub. There's something inherently nasty about that.

I'm happy to hear he likes showers, though. That makes life easier on everyone!

HaHa, thats rough! I'm glad I get to sit back and laugh and laugh at this!!
But I'm more glad that you've found something that more or less works for him. :)
