Visiting Willets

Josiah's childhood friend Lance and his wife Erin, recently sold their home in Az and bought a mobile home. They travel and he has a website business. Need him? contact him @ www.LanceWillet.com .

They stopped by Sac-Town and paid us a visit. We had dinner, Josiah and Lance played Frisbee Golf while Erin and I watched Arwyn and a freind, after a lovely picnic of course, laid around our home, Josiah and Lance jumped in the American River and swam with beavers, Erin took pictures ( view them at http://flickr.com/photos/lance_mountain/sets/72157594239938769/ ) and I kept Arwyn out of the dirt and on the safe edge of the banks, then to finish up with a delicious bang we went to Zelda's Pizza downtown, Yum!

p.s. Erin is a great photographer you really should look at our visit with them at the link above!

What a poopy mess!

In the middle of my disgust and horror i managed to think that this moment might actually be funny someday. But the camera was dead!

I set Arwyn in the bath tub, deciding to use adult soap in the hopes it would get her cleaner. Meanwhile she was excited and glad to be splashing around and I was gagging and trying to think of who i would call first to say" YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT ARWYN JUST DID!"

"what? walk!" said my my mom, " NO! WORSE!"

I was just telling a friend before Arwyn's nap that day that she has learned to take off her diaper and now i have to put her to sleep with pants on so she wont emerge from her crib hours later with a bare bottom and a wet crib.

But I managed to forget the pants and enjoyed the next two hours taking a nap of my own. When I awoke i was surprised to find that she had just woken up but was content playing alone, so i let her be and dozed some more. i woke an hour later and she was still happily playing. This never happens!

The phone rang and as I was returning from the call, I ascended the stairs and had a preminition, " oh! i forgot to put pants on her, what if she pooped this time and took the diaper off?!"

I opened the door to find just that! i think she pooped after the diaper was removed. But either way it proved to be a good toy, and possibly a snack! She had it all over the bed, her hands, feet, the railing, and a nice ring around her mouth.

Honestly if she did eat it, I am shocked cause she is such a picky eater, that I doubt she would like her own poop.

In the bath tub she was happy until i started scrubbing the ring around her mouth with a very soapy washcloth!

Once i got her washed, though smelling like clean poop, i got a hold of Josiah and told him about it. I also let him know that i cleaned her but i was leaving the crib for him. He was delighted!

Somehow through this experience she seems less dainty and girly. I think "Yeah she is beautiful, but she eats poop!".

If you see her anytime soon, just don't go sniffing her hands!
