Ok, so this post is for my cousin Andrea, she was deeply upset that I didn't tell this story on the last post.
I returned home from Denver on Monday afternoon. Jack and I were in the living room. He had a wet diaper and I usually take him back to his room to change him, cause I don't have to climb stairs so it is pretty easy to do so. This time I thought I would take his diaper off and sort of let him do the sometimes, necessary "dry out" due to some little minor rash he has. No biggie, right? Sofie is in the kitchen and as I am headed back to Jack's room to pick up a diaper, I get a little side tracked, which happens frequently, just plain scattered these days. So I am getting Sofie her juice and whatever else pops into her head that she wants at that moment, pull a load of laundry out of the dryer and put a load in ect. ect. Go back to the living room and I look down at Jack on the floor, covered in poop. He not only pooped on the carpet but rolled his-self around in it. Smiling up at me, with a chunk in his hand about to join the other chunk in his mouth. EEEEEKKKKKKKK! I do the scoop with my finger into his mouth to get the big piece in there and freak out. What do I do now? I don't want to get poo on me, I don't want to get it on Sofie and I certainly don't want him to eat anymore of it. So, I am holding him, running to the bathroom, I turn on the tub and how now do I get the chunks off him without getting it all over? Cause I can't put him in the tub, cause I don't want to have floaters in the water. So as I run to get the baby wipes, I get back to the bathroom, I laid Jack on the floor, (travertine cleans easily) there is Sofie sitting in the tub-HEAVENS- with her clothes on. Yes, I know she could have drowned. EEEKKKK Jack is still trying to eat his BM. I get the large chunks off and everyone gets a bath.
I go back to the living room to clean the carpet, no poop to be found. Just a dog sitting there happy as a clam.
Welcome home Mommy

Cherie,
Laughed out loud at your poopie-poo story. The things we go through once we have kids.........
Janice
Oh my gosh!! That is terrible! What a wonderful Mommy moment that you will always remember! Ha!!
Jen
I feel much better now.

Oh goodness, Cherie! What a great story!!!! That tops anything my five kids ever did! The twins pooped once in the tub when Jodie was their nanny (she was the first one before Christina). Poor Jodie was totally freaked out. BTW the term for that is coprophagia in case you were wondering! Hugs to all!
Love,
Pam
OMG, Cherie. I was laughing hysterically at your poopie blog story, because I could totally see that happening at my house. You are so funny! Hope Jack had no residual effects from the BM lunch he had! LOL!
Angie (Eric's sis)
Yuck....it must really take a mother's love...I don't think I could handle that!!!!
what cuties those kiddos are (if their mother can keep the "junk" out of their lunch!) Love to all!
Your poop stories are the absolute best! You always make me feel like I'm right there watching it all unfold, I can pretty much picture the entire thing in my head.
I had almost no poop stories until my fourth one came along and he has given me several - you are getting them all in with child number two (no pun intended) and we readers are getting highly entertained! "-)
Cherie, your poop stories are so funny! That one had me cracking up! I totally did not see the ending coming with the dog!
Cherie!
Funny post! I know exactly what you were feeling!!(what mom doesn't)
I remember once when Cam was a baby and he pooped on the floor. I ran to the kitchen to get something to clean it up with and when I came back, it was gone! One of the dogs took care of it for me--that grossed me out, but I guess that is what dogs do.
Lurker alert: Ugh! Mommyhood is so glamorous at times. I found Kathryn playing in poo in her crib once (9 months maybe?) Cranberries and corn, anyone? On the wall, sheets, hands, face. AGH!!!! I feel your pain.
Maybe we need to get a dog...? Definitely seems like the easiest way to handle the situation. Props to the old boy (or girl?) for helpin' out.
I am SO super duper impressed by you actually doing the Chicago marathon. I would love to see you...please be in touch with details. I've been out of computer luck of late so am getting caught up. I have managed to start joggin' a bit and am super excited that I am down 8.2 lbs (don't forget that .2 you know?)...but a marathon...wow. I think my first running experience ever...was with you around Hobe Sound church late at night...remember when?
In response to The Kite Runner comment you left....yes, I am thankful I read it, but it is indeed disturbing at parts. I think One Thousand Splendid Suns would be my first pick recommendation to others to read. Partly, because I am a woman....and because I am a mother.
Thanks for the laugh!! I have so been in your shoes...or whatever!!! By the way, your family pics are BEAUTIFUL!! How do you stay so young and georgous!
