The Proper Care and Feeding of your Gremlin

I have a 22 1/2-month old Gremlin. Sometimes he is cute and smiley and quite cuddly. Other times I am reminded that he is almost two.

Yesterday, before heading over to Danny's parents house to visit, I thought it would be very time-efficient to shower with my Gremlin. He needed a shower and so did I. After much ear-piercing shrieking that little Gremlin pooped on my foot.

Lesson #1
Never shower with your Gremlin.

LOL - At least it was in the shower where you could easily clean it. My little 2 year old munchkin wanted to take a shower with me the other day and I said no. He preceded to undress himself and he apparently had a dirty diaper. He was running around my bedroom with a dirty behind...

What is up with you and your sister and having issues with your children #2ing whilst trying to get clean??? (I believe Erin had a similar story but her's was in the tub) :)

This is too funny! I, too, have a little Gremlin, but he's a tad bit older (23 months). I think this is my favorite age, almost 2...despite the diapers and messes and all (deep sigh).

PS: Are you expecting twins? Congrats! Mine are now almost 6, and while the first year was crazy, they are such a blessing. My twins were home birthed and were overdue and had amazingly huge birthweights...I've blogged a bit about it if you're ever interested. ;)
