Baby poop...its a surprise every day!!

So Kaden, who turns 6 months tomorrow, has been eating cereal and food for a month now.  So far he loves rice cereal, cantaloupe, strawberries, and avocado but spits out sweet potatoes and carrots.  I'm still trying the carrots though since we just tried those for the first time last night.  Fingers crossed that he'll like at least some veggies.  I'm sure my mother is laughing though since I was such a picky eater!!



I'm making my own baby food since its so easy and so much cheaper.  I think its nuts how much baby stuff in general cost.  Luckily I've found lots of recipes for baby food, and some great charts on when to start feeding them what.  Click here for great ideas!!

 



Since feeding Kaden something other than breast milk the poop has changed...for better and for worse!!  It's a surprise everyday-like today, kinda mustard colored and really soft.  The other day it was a little more solid and brown.  He still only poops every couple of days, which is not unusual with breastfed babies, but I'm guessing the more he eats food then the more often he will start to poop.  Gee I can't wait!!  It's been nice only having to clean a poopy diaper every few days.  Plus his poop doesn't stink that bad.  Kinda have to be pretty close to even know he has a poopy diaper.  Not so much the case with his gas.  The kid could clear a room with that gassy ass!!  Lord love him though cause no matter how smelly his gas/poop is, he sure is darn cute!!

Catholic Blowout...aka poopy diaper!!

So last night we went to Saturday night mass with my "in laws" in this cute little church in Elba Minnesota.  It is only one room, so if your child is screaming you step outside not into a cry room!!  On average there are maybe 30-40 people there however last night it didn't seem as full.  I am not catholic(or very religious at all) so I don't know all the rules of church when I go.

In March when we visited and I ended up downstairs(which you get to from outside) because my 1month old scream within the first few minutes of being there.  He's now 2 1/2 months and this time was quite...until he let out very wet sounding fart!!  But it wasn't a fart!!! :)

Oh my Lordy did it smell, so bad that the man in front of us moved up a pew after communion(I'm assuming that's why he moved).  I was going to get up and go downstairs to change him but he was leaking everywhere(including on my sweater...little turd, no pun intended) but ended up changing him right there in the pew.  To make it worse, when I took off the nasty poopy diaper and the edges folded in right on the poop so I couldn't roll it up correctly.  I ended up wrapping a wipe around it then the poopy clothes and sticking it on top of the diaper bag.  I could smell it thru the rest of the service and wondered who else could too(but didn't really care).

God forgives bad smells...right??

Blowouts...

Ok...my son is now 2months old and in that time I've had only 2 leaky diapers. Those leaks left little evidence on his clothes.   Today however (and its only 1130am) he is now in his 4th outfit.  I don't understand what makes today different!!

But wait I do know, we're leaving town tomorrow so I'm doing laundry, packing bags, cleaning house...oh and my parents are coming over for dinner.  I also have to go to the bank and the grocery store all while cleaning up poopy diapers and poopy wet clothes!!

Today is not the day for this...no day is really the day for cleaning up poop.  At least he's not to the age of playing in it yet.  Oh the stories to come once that day hits!!
