Eliza had another poop incident today. And it wasn’t in her diaper. I wonder if I should change the name of this blog to “The Poop Chronicles.” On second thought, I don’t think that would be a very good selling point. But for some reason I seem to develop an insatiable need to tell a minimum of five people about each major (child) poop incident I have to deal with—especially if it happens before 8:00am. Or at least blog about it. For widespread enjoyment. Or sympathy.
Today’s details: Eliza wouldn’t get out of the tub, even though the water was freezing and we had a little friend over for an all-day stint (another reason for requesting the sympathy of my readers). When I left the bathroom, I heard Eliza calling “Poopies, Leia!” to her friend. I rushed in to find Eliza had done the deed, and launched the evidence out of the tub onto the bathroom carpet. (And I ask myself for the 600th time WHY DO WE HAVE CARPET IN THE BATHROOM!?!?!)
FYI, Lysol and bleach smell horrible together. And I love my rubber gloves.
And Eliza is grounded for a month. Or a year. Or until she's potty trained.

Sick!!!!!!!!!!! Although, I think the Poop Chronicles sounds like a very interesting read. Even more engaging than the Narnia ones.
Here's a big dose of sympathy, from one Mom to another. Launching Poop? I would've liked to have seen that! And whoever thought up carpet in the bathroom needs a good swift kick in the bottom!
Yuck Janel- and being pregnant through it all. . . you deserve the Mom of the Day award! Wow. Eliza sure is going to be a great big sister, with all sorts of tricks to teach the new little one! ;)
JANEL - I am just totally laughing because I just posted on my blog complaining about the carpet in our kitchen - only to sumise that the only thing worse than that is carpet in the bathroom. And it's true - it's awful - and I completely sympathize with you.
Hi again - I just put a link to your blog on mine. Hope you don't mind.
I think the only thing that could be worse than carpet in the bathroom is WHITE carpet in the bathroom. I would like to know who comes up with these ideas, anyway? Obviously not someone with kids!
My taste buds are dying of delight. Thanks again for the bread Janage.
Gotta love the poop chronicles! Carpet in the bathroom? Only my grandma has carpet in the bathroom.
