First time for everything, and a second, and a third...

Golden fountains, I forgot they were a package deal when you give birth to a boy. One would think it wouldn't be that big of an issue. Just change the diaper quickly, you say? There is no "quick" that is quick enough. He beats me every time. We were given "pee-pee tee-pees" to use in order to alleviate this problem, but they are still in the package. Ironically, I had to wipe the pee off of the package of pee-pee tee-pees. Excellent work Jack.

Upon cleaning up the mess he made with the most outrageous fountain of urine I've ever seen (ok, maybe Grandma Jeanne cleaned it up), Jack proceeded to mess his new clean diaper with a totally different surprise, resulting in 2 diapers in about 30 seconds. Not to mention the fact that he peed all over the extra diapers on the changing table. We went to Target yesterday to buy...well you can deduce that yourself.

Finally, I was able to sit and feed him. I had gotten myself all cleaned up and dressed, ready for our adventure to Target when Jack decided it was time to spit up all over me. My mom simply said, "That's why you don't get dressed in your regular clothes before you feed him." Thank you mom for that late, but important piece of advice.

 Is he going for the pacifier or the beer?

The rule still applies to babies...don't fall asleep at the party or we'll take funny pictures of you!

So, I'm learning. Slowly, but surely, I'm learning. Being a mom is REALLY hard work and a REALLY messy job.
