FYI

By the way moms I posted the pictures from the last play date. There's a link to the bottom of the right hand side of the page where you can click on and view them. There's some really cute ones. I can't wait to take more and get some of those chubby cheeks advertising us. With your permission of course!

Poop in the Tub

So I have to ask, or vent or just blog about Nugget and his latest poop in the tub episodes. At first it was a random thing. I remember calling my husband at work, "Nugget pooped in the tub today!" We laughed.
Two weeks later, on a horrible gone wrong day which I labeled "Knoop Luck" back in one of my blogs, it happened again. I called my mom, "He pooped in the tub again!"
She laughed.
Now, a month later, at least that's what it feels like in mom time, it's happened twice in one week, only this time I caught him before more than one-shall we say nugget-came out. Dripping wet I frantically yanked my son from the tub and sat him on the toilet. Now, we're not even close to being potty trained yet, he's only 1, and though I've wanted to start introducing the seat others have informed me it will be a waist of time since baby #2 is due in 3 months and he'll quickly revert, if I believe that or not is another story, but anyways I sat him on the toilet. He did the rest of his business while I held on to him and drained the tub, catching the floating-nugget-before it went down the drain. I called everyone who would listen this time. No one laughed. "Maybe it's the warm water?" "Maybe it's because he plays so hard and splashes so much?" "Maybe you should wait a while longer after you feed him before sticking him in."
Whatever the case I have come to the conclusion that my son is a tub pooper, and that maybe ruling out the possibility of putting a swimmy diaper on him isn't such a bad idea, for me anyways. After all I am the one who spends the extra time cleaning him, the tub and the toys that might have come in contact with the -nugget- water. Just don't alert my mom or elders on this one. I just might have to hear about that for a long while to come if this swimmy blog leaks.

Event Thank You

Hi Moms,

I wanted to take a moment and thank all of you for attending our first Boardwalk Babies event. I think the Baby Play Date went off great. It was wonderful to meet some of you and watch everyone laugh and share amusing stories over what they've experienced as a mom. For those of you who were unable to attend Megan and I are hoping you'll join us and the other moms for our next event.
In the coming months Megan and I are going to be hard at work planning some new and exciting special events that we think you'll love. We're even looking into setting up some mom events that exclude the little ones, so stay tuned.
Our next event is planned for February 28th at Kids by the Sea. Please log on to www.boardwalkbabies.blogspot.com to check out the event, and future ones to come. As we're changing many things Boardwalk Babies site will also be getting a fresh face and pictures from last weeks event will soon appear. If you'd like me to send you any copies of the photos email me and let me know. Again, thanks again for making our first event a success. We look forward to several more to come and to inviting several other new moms as well.
