The Devinator strikes again...

I just wanted to share our latest adventure with the Devinator. I was making heart shaped chocolate covered rice crispy treats on a stick for Aiden's Valentine's party at school, and let Devin lick the spoon. If you remember the Christmas Cookie making post with Devin all covered in chocolate, or have a toddler of your own, you know they get very messy. So I herd the boys upstairs for a bubble bath. I let them play for some time and finally start by getting Devin out. I dry him off, put lotion on, put some Vicks on since they've been a little congested. And of course dress him in a clean diaper and set of PJs. Nice squeaky clean baby.
I set him down and go to grab Aiden's PJ's and underwear from the next room and I hear a *SPLASH*! I rush into the bathroom and there is Devin sitting in the tub-fully clothed. UGH!! So I get him out AGAIN, strip off his wet clothes and carry him back to the changing table. I take off the diaper since it's soaking wet on the outside and bend down to get clean PJ's. What does he do next?? Pees all over himself!! Now, I'm very proud to say that Devin hasn't done that since he was an infant. He was never one to pee as soon as a diaper was off, so it's a rare occasion. But not tonight...this was a good pee. So back to the tub he goes for his second bath, and 3rd trip into the tub.
Now I've learned my lesson-so Aiden gets out first this time. Water is drained, and Devin is just sitting in the empty tub awaiting my return. I get Aiden all lotioned up, Vicksed, and PJ's on, and then head over to the tub to retrieve my precious child for the 3rd time. Lucky for me this next time of lotion, Vicks, diaper, and PJ's have seem to held up. Nope, spoke too soon...he just pooped!
Now as I've had a few minutes to relax, I'm sorry I didn't snap a picture with him in the tub fully clothed, but what are you going to do. In that moment I was thinking "NOOOOO!!! Save the diaper!" And it was too late for that anyhow. But I just thought I'd share another "A day in the life of being the Devinator's Mom". Till next time...
