Emma had art class too...

and there's NO WAY I took a picture.

Hers involved POOP, the PLAYPEN, and her MOUTH.

I made it through clean-up of the child and I can't quite go back in the room yet. Waiting for the fan to hopefully clear out the odor a bit-- YIKES.

I suppose I should get out some finger paints??

  2. OH- the lovely poop art! My son was a great artist. Luckily for you, Emma can't walk through it to make poopy footprints all over the house! Hoping it was a one time thing for your household!!

  7. You have my sympathy for sure...I've had two that liked tose kinds of arts and crafts. We had to resort to one-piiece zip-up pajamas for one of them. Hope her bursts of inspiration are few and far between!

  8. been there, done that!! UGH, hopefully she'll forget where she found that aromatic brown paint at. I had to wear onsies on my guys for about a month to get them to forget.

  9. Ooh, I have been there! (And I'm not a mom, just a nanny :) There's not much worse than trying to clean poop out of a kid's mouth!

  11. Lily doesn't paint with her poop, but watch out if it leaks from her diaper (her new favorite accomplishment is to take her pants off so she is just in her diaper). She has been known to leave a trail or her mark -ICK!!!

  12. Oh no!! I have an awful g-tube/poop/bathtub/mouth memory with Darah! She was in the bathtub (it was a very deep garden tub) and I was on the opposite side of the bathroom reading a magazine while she played. I heard her cough and looked up and she was fine. A few minutes later, I went to her and it was time to get out....um, the cough was actually a gag from putting poop in her mouth. The gag was so strong, she busted the balloon on the g-tube and was sitting in poopy water. Of course I didn't have a spare button and went to the hospital before the stoma closed. Mortifying!! The nurse told me Darah had pyka to which I replied I must have it as well, since I ate my poop and dirt once or twice as a baby. I am trying to remember the other stupid thing that nurse told me.

    Sorry about my little stroll down memory lane!! LOL!!
