Baby Poop

Warning! Yes this post is about poop!

For whatever reason boys are fascinated with poop. This became clear with Jonah early on. We went through phases with every bathroom word where it was so hilarious to him resulting in using it well beyond the capacity that he should have. To make it less of a big deal we tried to remain open and talk about these words as if they weren't a big deal. I even bought ever book I could find on the subject to decorate my bathroom with. "The Truth About Poop." "Everyone Poops." "The Gas We Pass." "Once Upon A Potty." "Walter The Farting Dog." On a recent visit my mother in law was far from impressed with this bathroom reading.

He's a boy. Boys are made of Frogs, Snails, & Puppy-dogs' tails. I continue to learn from him daily, and a boys fascination with all things gross is part of their DNA. I grew up with two sisters so this is all new to me. It was thus not surprising when Jonah took a high curiosity to his sisters poop. He acted disgusted, but yet couldn't help but want to see every dirty diaper that Gracie produced. He would then fall to the floor screaming in disgust and run from the room. He began telling everyone we encountered about his sisters glowing poop. Yes to him it seemed to glow.

This week his newest baby poop game has become decontaminating the sector, aka the diaper pail. He puts on his spider man mask, power ranger gloves, and grabs his toy grip claw and heads for the pail. He then takes it into the bathroom and with his claw decontaminates each diaper by removing them from the diaper pail and placing them into the trash can. Cheap entertainment at it's finest! Now every diaper change is a family affair as Jonah stands by waiting for a glowing poop diaper to decontaminate. Time to decontaminate the sector! Somethings I will never understand.
