I have found taking a shower while Phin is sleeping is off limits. The only bathroom with a shower backs up against his room and it wakes him up every time. So the babe has to be in bathroom prison everyday.
This was a non issue when he wasn't mobile. Stick him in his little vibrating chair and bust it out in 5, 10 even 15 minutes. 15 glorious minutes.
Mobile baby, for the most part, is exponentially better.
Not during shower time.
I have not totally baby proofed this bathroom. The basics are done. Toilet paper sits on top of the toilet, not in the roll holder. No poisonous cleaning chemicals are under the sink. Razors are hidden. Even I no longer know where those suckers went. So sorry about that world.
He still finds stuff. Yesterday I was showering and every five seconds he would throw back the curtain and pelt something at me. The Old Spice. A race car. Travel lotion. A dog toy. His shoe. Tried to shove the cat in, but she won.
I think he's trying to tell me something. Mommyhood is dangerous business friends.
Have an awesome holiday all.
I busted up laughing at this one! Sorry if it isn't meant to be funny, I can only imagine his delight as he chucked things into the shower! :)
ReplyDeletedangerous business indeed, i imagine. but who really needs razors anyway!! love this post. love for your spirit.
ReplyDelete@Sara - If flying toiletries aren't funny, what is?
ReplyDelete@Wilybrunette right? Not shaving is sure to show up in some trendy magazine soon (lucky maybe?) I'm a trendsetter.
Hi! Thanks for your lovely comment.
ReplyDeleteAnd isn't it mad how the most innocent of things can become lethal weapons! My Dad had to hide my niece's twirling baton after she just used it to repeatedly crack him on the head!! Nice!!

ReplyDelete@Crafty- I wish I had shower doors. Then again, he'd probably just bang on them until I opened them up anyway. Babies.
