I would like to start out this post with saying that my Gabriel is a thrower.
I woke up this morning to the usual, gabriel can see me from his crib and he stands there and yells at me until I wake up and go get him. So... I got out of bed. Keep in mind I didn't have my contacts in but as soon as I walked into his room, it was filled with the sweet stench of fresh baby poop. Then I saw it, it was reminiscent of Gabriels recent birthday party in which he was smeared with cake...but this wasn't cake. Brian in all of his brilliance decided to put the baby to bed without a onsie on. I woke up to DRIED poop smeared all over the crib, hand prints on the wall and every slat in the sides of the crib covered in dried poop.
I stood there for a second trying to decide whether to get the camera or just start the ugly cleaning process, then I realized it was in his MOUTH. So I woke eli up and drew a bath. Eli was so excited, he grabbed his toys and headed for the bathroom. Jumped in the tub and gleefully started role playing some vicious alien attack and how he was the only hope for mankind.
I walked in holding the baby by the arms, poop covering his chubby little legs. Eli looked at me as if I had just tied him to a guillotine and was pulling the blade up. I had to let the baby soak for a while so I didn't have to scrub the poop off. I headed over to the next room to start cleaning. I could hear eli whining saying "THIS isn't the kind of bath I wanted Gabriel, why did you do this? HOW did you get POO on your FACE?!"
I used clorox wipes to clean the crib, took off the linens and started scrubbing. Then it happened, I stepped over and realized there was something cold and squishy under my foot. I used a wipe to clean it off, went to the bathroom and put in my contacts. I went back into the room with full clarity and realized that he had THROWN poop all over the place. I might cry later, right now I am still in shock.

Oooohhh! Barf-a-roni! I'm so sorry!
Are you laughing about it now that it is all over? That is one for the record books!
Oh Heather I laughed so hard. With my twins we had a whole slew of adventures, but never anything quite like this, you poor Momma!
Yeah I am sort of laughing about it now. I keep thinking about it, I honestly think I was sort of traumatized over the whole thing. Gabe was happy about all of it. I can't wait to remind him that he ate poop when he was a baby. As soon as those teenage creep up!
