Showering will never be the same again...

It used to be that I could bring my little guy into the bathroom with me when I showered and place him in his little bouncer. He would sit there for as long as it took me to get ready, just looking around and playing with the toy spiders. Then one day, he fell out of the bouncer and I decided he was too big for that, so I just started sitting him on the floor in the bathroom with a toy, and he would sit there leisurely until I was done. I loved showers.

NOW, he can crawl, and it's all over for me. I tried taking a shower just now and it was hell. He soaked himself because he kept crawling into our walk-in shower, slipped and hit his head 3 times because he made the floor all wet, and finally (and this one's for you, Nicole) crawled over to the toilet and licked it. (sounds of a frazzled mother throwing up in her mouth) What used to take 10 minutes just took 30. Oh well, cleanliness is overrated anyways.

LOL! OMG, he LICKED the toilet! That is so funny that we were just talking about that the other day... the difference between a new mother and an experienced one... Nicole: "Eh, a lil toilet lick never hurt anyone..." haha!
