Bowels & Sunscreen



It seems as though "poop" is the theme of the month at the Hooley household! After a failed attempt to put Bailey to bed for a nap, Brandon shut her in her room... needless to say she didn't exactly fall asleep! She took off her diaper (which she only wears when sleeping) because she "didn't want to get it all dirty" and decided the floor was a better place to have the runs... then, heaven only knows how, she climbed up on her little nightstand and left a cute little puddle of urine! As if that wasn't messy enough, she proceeded to dump EVERYTHING off her bed and shelves - much of which were quite high up on her wall...

When she started calling "mommy, come help me!" I hurried into her room. Instead of yelling, I quietly turned around and walked out of her room to tell Brandon his daughter needed him.:) All the while I hear Bailey telling herself, "it's okay, it was an accident..." As Brandon started being "the dad" I grabbed the camera to document. Then we went to work cleaning up the monumental disaster! Not 2 minutes later, we spot Bailey crouching in the hallway. Brandon chased her down and found she had climbed up on the kitchen counter to retrieve a bottle of sunscreen (hence picture #1). I then had to dismiss myself to call my mom since Bailey mistakenly was taking my hysterical laughter for "cool, this is funny" and her responding giggles weren't sitting well with dads lecture... and to think this was supposed to be our day of rest! lol:)

  6. HA! I am so glad I'm not the only one that has these blessed experiences :) Both my kids went through that phase... Hailey more-so than Xander. She used to rip off her diaper almost 2 times a week! Finally I found that putting her in jeans or pants seemed to help discourage the fun act of taking off her diaper and then playing in it :)
