The new Grandma requested a photo every week, so here is this week's!

Isn't he a cutie?!
Jeremiah has achieved a new level when it comes to diaper changes. He has discovered he's a boy and can, as we call it, "geyserize", at unexpected moments when his parents are busy trying to put on a new diaper, pull out the wipes, apply diaper rash cream, or whatever. I did warn Bobby that Jeremiah had found this new little talent and to beware, but it still caught him off guard. Not once, but twice in a row! I have rarely seen Bobby become flustered and panic. But he did those times. :) It's a dilema - cover with old messy diaper, or use the new one and once it's ruined grab yet another clean one, try to find the burp cloth to use it to stop the flow, use the baby blanket, etc. At this point in your mental reasoning you just completely loose your head and hope everything at least stays on the changing table and avoids the carpet below. Because you're already too late!

Aaah, the joys of parenthood.

I got a photo and a good laugh this week! He is looking so good! That's my little Jerimiah!

He is such an alert cute little guy. The solution is easy, along with wipes, cream, and clean diaper you now will always have a cloth diaper/burp cloth handy for all diaper changes. Better yet 2, one underneath for puddles, and one draped on top for geysers. Yes, it really works
