January 8 - Poo(h)


This picture seemed highly appropriate for todays blog. If you have kids, you will get this. If you don't...read at your own risk! This is my day! It is seemingly just a cute picture of Alaina and her Pooh Bear but little do you know, over the last two days we have been on a "Poo Watch." Nope, not some fun new spin-off with a David Hasselhoff and some busty blondes... We have literally been waiting for a dirty diaper. At first I didn't think much about it. Yesterday the day care mentioned they didn't have a dirty diaper all day. Hmmmm...okay. She just saved it for mommy. But when Alaina woke up this morning after sleeping all night and we were still waiting I was a little more concerned. I called the daycare once during the day to see if they had any "luck." Nope, not yet. By the time I picked her up I was debating calling the pediatrician or at the very least going home and reading my "What to Expect: The First Year" book about how long you wait before you worry. Especially when your child normally has 5+ dirtys a day! We got home and the cable guy was coming so I popped Alaina in her swing to take advantage of a few minutes to do a quick sweep of the house to make sure it was in order. After the cable guy left it was finally time for Alaina to eat and she was ready!! So we get settled on the couch and she starts to eat and then suddenly stops. I tried again and she appeared to not be hungry anymore. Suddenly...there was a rumble and just like that, the poo strike was over! (I will spare you the details here) Hooray!
Other then that, not much happened today. Did I mention how much I love being a parent? Seriously - no sarcasm there. :O) Love you Alaina and your poo(h) too!
