Oh yeah. I was gonna talk about bowling and stuff. The problem is that I don't have the pics uploaded yet. So, instead of a pleasant interlude about bowling with an "almost 3" year old, I'll tickle your fancy with some gross potty talk instead.
Okay. So, changing diapers isn't that fun. It can be gross. Poop has a tendency to explode out of diapers sometimes, especially in the baby ones. That's 'cause all they eat is liquid. Silly babies.
But, changing diapers is something that just becomes routine. Like, it loses it's grossness after a while or something. It's hard to explain. Maybe your brain just shuts off the part that realizes that you are voluntarily sticking your hands into someone else's bodily waste. Not quite sure, 'cause I know for damn sure it turns back on when you are changing some other kids diaper.
I have discovered something quite profound. This "diaper changes are okay" phenomenon does not hold up when confronted with cleaning poop and pee out of tiny tot potties.
I'm not sure what is worse. Seeing the waste sitting in the small pot all mixed together or smelling it. Ugh. I feel like puking every single time I have to dump it and clean it out. ROWLFFFF.
Then sometimes you gotta do a "clean-up" wipe to make sure all the poop is off the butt. Oh man. Not pleasant.
Don't get me wrong. Not using diapers is great; it means less money and less impact on the environment. All good stuff.
But, not using diapers means that I get to get up close and personal with poop and/or pee at least six times a day. It's just gross.
