POOPING IN THE TUB



It had to happen sometime.  After all this talk about how such a relaxing and special time it was to take a nice, warm bubble bath with my daughter it.  finally.  happened.  Sofia pooped in the tub.  She didn't poop just once, but twice.  Back to back nights.  And you know what?  I'm okay with it.

I really didn't think I'd be okay squatting over my freshly drawn bath with a plastic cup fishing for pieces of yellow turds, but alas, here we are.  I can't wait to tell her about this when she's just old enough to be embarrassed.  I'll tell her about how red her face got as she was pushing it out.  I'll tell her how the moment I looked into her eyes and realized what she was doing I just started busting up laughing at her telling her "no no no no... not right no... ohhhhh my gosh... here we go..."  I LAUGHED while YOU POOPED.  Do any of you remember the last time your mother was two feet in front of your face holding on to you while you took a crap in your bathtub?  I have that memory.  So does she.

the birthing of alba mae

From the beginning, this pregnancy seemed so much the same, yet so distinctly different all at once. I didn't get sick, I wasn't too turned away by my favorite foods, I had occasional heartburn here and there and overall, was able to relax and enjoy the experience.  What was strange was how differently I was carrying - having been told more times than I could count that I had looked as if I had "swallowed a basketball".  I think I was persuaded a few times in my head that maybe this was  different, maybe it really was a baby boy.  Yet still, in my heart I had an overwhelming intuition I would be holding another little girl in my arms, someone so very similar to her sister yet so distinctly different all at once. My little may flower. Saturday night, the air was warm and sticky.  Sofia, Erick and I read stories by a big window fan in her room trying to distract ourselves from the heat in our upstairs apartment. ...
