Playing in the shower

Carson LOVES to play in the shower. In fact, it has been the cause for a few time outs when he keeps opening the doors and trying to climb in. He's not allowed to be in there unless Mommy or Daddy are in there with him.
On Monday morning, Carson tried to open the shower door and climb in as I was in the shower, so I opened the door and undressed him to let him come in. I got a nice surprise when I undid his diaper to find out he was poopy. Lovely. So, I brought him in the shower and put his little buns under the water. He had a grand ole time playing, then Daddy got in the shower with him so I could get out. They even sat under the water together. It was actually kinda cute.
Tuesday was another fun day. Carson came and got in the shower with me again. Daddy walked in right after we got in and asked if Carson had pottied yet. As soon as he said that, a tiny little fountain started going for about 10 seconds. Crack me up!! Carson had fun playing in the water again and wasn't afraid for the water to touch him, like he was before playing with Daddy on Monday. I got out and let him stay in and play until I got my lotion on. Before I could get him out, Daddy and I both looked over to see someone pooping in the shower. Ew! Gross! Daddy took care of it and all was well. Needless to say, we got Baby Buns out of the shower to clean him up and get a diaper on. I had to chase Carson thru the bedroom and get him out of my closet. (He had run over there and shut the door to hide from me as I ran after him with a baby wipe. Would have been a great video.) I got him out, cleaned him up-- much to his dismay, and got lotion and a diaper on him.
I came home from the gym today to Carson shouting "Mama, Mama" as I walked in the door. It was the best!! So, he helped me potty so we could take a shower. He was more than ready to get in before he was undressed or the water was on! So, I turned the shower on so the water could get warm. I got him undressed then started to get myself ready to go. Before I could get Carson in the shower, he peed on the floor mat. Lovely. This should have been an indication to me. Once in the shower, Carson played then stopped and squatted. Are you freaking kidding me?!? He stood up and there was the green corn poop. YUCK-OLA!! I moved him underneath the water away from the poop and cleaned it up with Kleenex - thank goodness the toilet is right next to the shower. I had to move Carson back under the water while I finished cleaning since I really didn't need any more help at this point. Gross!! After it was done, he was back playing as if nothing had happened. I let him play again once I got out, but not for too long before getting a diaper on that little bottom. I wasn't about to clean up again!!
Hopefully tomorrow will go a little bit smoother! :)

  1. I guess he knows that all of the pipes lead to the same place. Too bad all of his deposits don't go directly down the draim. What a mess!!

  2. That is hysterical - keep the shower in mind when you start potty training:)

  3. I agree this is hysterical--unless I'm the one cleaning it up. Maybe you could turn on the cold water in the shower long enough to trigger that little pooper BEFORE he gets naked and in the shower. Fun family time. Enjoy.

  4. OK, this should be the sign to let the water run with his diaper on for a little bit and then take it off, glad that I am not the one cleaning that one up. Sounds like lots of fun though!
