Before getting the boys tucked in for bed I decided to take a bath. I was tired & wanted to do it before time got away. The boys are calmed down enough by this time of the night that I have little to fear as far as them getting into trouble. Plus the littlest had already fallen asleep at 5:30 with a fever in my bed. So I had no more than ran my water, lay my head back and C & B are inquiring whether or not I'm going poop or taking a bath. I inform them that I'm actually taking a bath and could I please just relax. Conner then says "well I have to take a poop" (which means he would need wiped). He then says he doesn't have to go bad so he'll hold it. Keep in mind I'd been in the tub a total of five minutes at this point. 2 more minutes pass and Biruk informs me he has to poop. There is no negotiating with a 3 year old so what do I tell him? "Fine, poop in here". Nothing says Valentine's day like sharing a small bathroom with one pooping while you soak in the tub. And there were NO candles burning. Gross. So I did my mom duties and he was on his way. 2 more minutes passes and Biruk is back "mom, Conner is done pooping". Me: "Tell Conner to wipe his own butt" (no time like the present). 1 minute passes and Biruk is back "Mom, Conner done pooping he needs you". Me: "Biruk, please tell Conner to wipe his own butt". His response "I wipe Conner's butt mom" and off he runs. So I gave up, grabbed my towel and headed upstairs to wipe yet another butt within 10 minutes of trying to take a bath. Guess what we'll be doing this weekend?
Butt Wiping 101 (advice welcomed)
Your blog post made my Valentine's Day seem great :) I didn't have to wipe anyone's butt while I took a bath. Hopefully next year will be a little better.

Fair enough.
ReplyDeleteThough it only really would have been bad if I had to hear about you pooping.

ReplyDeleteha ha. Isaac waits until I'm eating my lunch to go. Every. Single. Day. Even if I don't eat until 3:00. lol.
ReplyDeleteGross! How about some kind of warning if you are going to write a post like that?
ReplyDeleteWhere was your stupid husband? Shouldn't he have taken care of this? Valentine's day should be YOUR day! What a dummy he must be.
ReplyDeleteI feel for you!!
ReplyDeletewhat is with those anonymous comments?
ReplyDeleteare they kidding or being sarcastic? because, um, you did warn.
i hear you sister friend.
i am up to my freaking armpits in poop.
today the four year old had a random poop accident, the first in a looong time.
i seriously said "toss those undies in the trash. i don't want to deal with them."
I recently had a sink or swim moment with my oldest on the whole bottom wiping thing. She swam. More or less. I choose to focus on the more.
