This Morning’s Activities

I was the first one up this morning. I decided to work on a little project while I was waiting in my crib and suprise Mommy when she came to get me out of bed. So I took off my diaper and went to work.

Just as I was putting the finishing touches on my face, Momma came in. The first thing she noticed was my diaper on the floor. She looked puzzled. Then she sniffed and looked at me and my crib for about 3 seconds. She was so thrilled with what she saw… with my creation… that she screamed for Daddy. She started saying, “Oh no no no no no no no no, no!” (This was confusing because I am sure that what I did was a good thing, but I thought “no” was for bad. She must not know how/when to use that word yet.)

When Daddy came in he stared at me too. Just to make sure that they knew that what I did was for them, I gave them a little smile.

The rest of the morning is a blur. They both started moving very quickly. Momma ran and started the bath. Daddy lifted me out of bed, making sure I came nowhere near him, and took me into the bathroom. I heard the washing machine start and Momma running around the house while Daddy gave me not one bath, but two! When we went back into my room my creation had been removed, my bed was stripped, and it smelled faintly of disinfectant.
