Diapering a cat...


When did this happen? Oliver was the easiest going little guy. When I would change his diaper he would just lay there and smile at me or coo as he looked out the window. I changed his diaper today and it was like trying to change the diaper on a cat.

At the end of the event his diaper was changed but not before everything on the changing table (new diaper, wipes, pants and socks) had been in his mouth and then thrown on the floor and the curtains had been pulled off the wall. I was almost sweating by the time I was finished.

A few minutes ago I tried to clean out his nose with the bugger sucker. I attempted to do it while leaving him on the floor, which was my fault. So, I had to straddle him to keep his arms from poking the device into an eye. Then I had to hold his head still with one hand while sucking out the boogies with the other. And though he was pinned to the ground he kept snorting like a mad bull until I was finished. He smiled at me when I was done, at least I thought it was a smile, it turned out to be his 'poop' face.

My last note on these events, aside from the fact that he poops too much, he isn't even mobile yet. I think it's time I join a gym.

  1. Oh my goodness! Remember me telling you in January that the day would come when he no longer would lie peacefully on the changing table (or anywhere else) while you changed his diaper? Guess that day has arrived. But I really enjoyed your description, almost felt like I was there!
    Instead of joining the gym, just carry him up and down the stairs for an hour, that should be a pretty good workout! : )
