So, I have a wonderful aunt who I love and my girls do as well. She and my uncle were never able to have children of their own and during my "growing up" years, she treated me as her own. Now that I have three little girls, she treats them as her own as well. The other day, Breck, Taylor, and I, ventured out to have lunch and a little shopping with aunt Shirley. We went to McD's and had a great time catching up with another cousin. After lunch, we headed to Elder Beerman to return something and check out the sale racks. Breck needed to use the potty and Taylor supposedly had to too...Taylor normally doesn't have any interest.
Since you can't take unpaid merchandise into the bathrooms, Shirley decided to take the girls and I stayed out with the goods. Next thing I know, Shirley comes walking back out...kidless. (Keep in mind, she never had kids of her own.) She informs me that Taylor has pooped in her diaper...not surprised at all. However, the diaper bag is out in the truck. I walk into the bathroom and find Taylor standing butt naked outside of the stall...remember, she left them alone. Luckily, there was no one else in there. I proceed to walk in and find the poopy diaper in the stall...she had taken it off without checking first. I was attempting to "clean" the diaper best I could so I could put it back on!!!!...when Shirley says, "what's on her finger?!?!" Ugh!!!! I pick her up and go to prop her on my leg so she can wash her hands in the sink, when I realize that Shirley hasn't cleaned her up yet!!!...so, now I have poop smear on my pants!!!
I have no clean diapers and no wet wipes!!!...remember, they're in the truck. I wipe my pants off...and Taylor's little biscuits...the best I can with dry toilet paper (the only thing in the restroom). I then again attempt to clean out the diaper so we don't have any more "accidents" before we leave the store. Taylor refused to put the diaper back on...I don't really blame her...so I agree to let her go commando and pray that she doesn't pee before we get to the truck!
I'm happy to say, we successfully finished our shopping...which included a couple cute outfits for each of the girls...with a happy ending :) We made it to the truck with no accidents and got a clean diaper on my poor little girl :)
Oh, the things we go thru being a mom!!!....I love it!!!
Thanks for the chuckle! I could imagine this perfectly as you described! :) Especially the poop on the leg!
