Night life with JT

Ever since we have been in Utah (the last 10 days) JT has been living up the night life. I am not a fan! He has never kept me up at nights UNTIL NOW. I’m sure all of the time in the car seat during the day which promotes naptime isn’t helping. What is interesting is that he wakes up at the same time with a poopy diaper? Can’t wait to get home and on a better schedule.

This morning we experienced a first. Four previous babies and I’ve never seen this happen. Lily thought she would be a helper and started changing JT’s poopy diaper this morning. We were in a hurried frenzy to be on time for Grandpa and Grandma’s setting apart for their mission. Anyway, I walked in the room to catch Lily’s helpful deed and my blood pressure rose a few notches. This wasn’t a one wipe job, I started to take over when guess what happens? JT started urinating and it went straight into both of his eyes!!!! YIKES. Yes, I started screaming and throwing wipes like crazy. I quickly started wiping up liquids when he started doing it again, and like the first time it went in both eyes! I’m not sure about the precautions with urnine in the eye, he is still smiling at me when I talk to him so I don’t think he went blind. Hopefully that NEVER happens again.

These sound like part of the great memories of Motherhood. You know you’ve really been here and had the true experiences of Motherhood. You wouldn’t have wanted to miss this one.

That is really funny! I don’t mean to laugh, but you have to admit at times like that the only thing to do is laugh! JT will thank you someday for loving him so much! Good job!

The experiences that revolved around JT’s and Livvy’s body fluids (and solids) were too, too funny while you were in Utah. I know this is mean, but I am “sooo” glad I am out of those stages!
