It is never a good thing when you find your child, that usually wears diapers, without their diaper on but it is increases ten fold when the stench of poo is also in the air. Let me explain...
I got home from work today, and the kid's were both asleep. After about 20 to 30 minutes Elena started crying, so I went to check on her.
The first thing that I noticed was that her diaper was off. The next thing I noticed was that the room smelled like poo and Elena had an
impressionistic brown design down the entire right side of her body. If you look closely this design is also present in small amount all over her face.
Sometime between when she laid down for her nap and when woke up again, she removed her diaper, went poop, and
proceeded to smear all over herself, the mattress, and the crib. (No wonder she was crying when she woke up!)
After one shower/bath, a good scrubbing, a bunch of bleach and a washing machine full of soiled linens we finally go the poo cleaned up.
THE MORAL OF THIS STORY:
If you are going to lay your kid's down for a nap, make sure that they have clothes on to keep them from taking their diaper off, so that you won't have your own story to add to the ever growing list of..."Adventures in Motherhood"
