Poop, Poop, and More Poop!!

    So I woke up this morning to a pile of cat poop next to my bed... yes, I know, disgusting!! I'm not sure what the cat's deal is, but he's been pooping all over the house lately and it's driving me mad! So anyway, I guess that was a precursor of what was to come, because the rest of my day was just filled with poop.
    We went over to the Herlong's this afternoon and the girls had a blast playing princess, and tea party, and just really had a great time. We are so blessed to have people like them in our lives :) Well, while we were there, Alyssa (who is still potty-training) pooped in her pants twice!! I felt bad the first time because Catherine had to clean her up and change her (I was nursing Eli) but then, she did it again!! We were sitting talking and here comes Alyssa down the stairs with no panties on! Grrrr....
    Then, later this afternoon right before we walked out the door to meet a friend for dinner (yes, I'm crazy and decided to meet a friend for dinner with all 4 kids by myself) I made everyone go use the bathroom. So Alyssa is on the little potty at the bottom of the stairs and after she went we all said "yay!" and clapped for her like we always do... well, Ansleigh was on the potty upstairs and got so excited about Alyssa that she jumped off, mid poop, and ran to the top of the stairs screaming "I'm still pooping!!!!" And she was. It was everywhere! All over her legs and the floor. I just couldn't believe it, I have no idea why on earth she did that. So I got that all cleaned up and we went on our way to Chick-Fil-A for dinner.
    Half way through our meal Sophia decided she's has to go to the bathroom "reeeealy bad", so I take her and come back, then Ansleigh has to go. So I take her and come back. When I get back Alyssa looks at me and says "I poop." The kid had pooped her pants AGAIN!!!!! Seriously??!? How many times a day can one child go? So I had to change her clothes once again (we're on the 4th change of the day now). While I was changing her, she went potty so I figured she would be good to go play on the playground... but of course, I was wrong. Right as we were packing up to leave Alyssa comes out of the play area and says "I pee." She had peed all over the bottom step of the playground! I had to make all the kids leave the area and get someone to clean and sanitize it, I felt so bad.
    So, that was my day... lot's of time spent cleaning up poop :) I took a picture of the kids when we got home this evening. After calling my sister to share the story of my poop-day, I realized how funny it all was, so I wanted a picture of them to remember the craziness that was our day.

Sophia is doing a "shake your booty" dance and Eli thinks it's the best thing ever, Ansleigh's pose is too funny, and notice Alyssa is not wearing any pants (they all have poop in them), as she tries to copy Sophia's dance.

  3. I think tomorrow you should just stay home! But wait, then you still have the cat to clean up after, so who cares! Leave the house, get out, enjoy the sun :)
