Shitastrophe

Steve and I invented a new word to describe the situation that unfolded on Wednesday.  One of the many reasons I love cloth diapers is that the kids never go through that stage where they rip their diapers off.  My boys have never been able to get the snaps undone so we skip that whole not so fun stage:)  However, I have been adding to my diaper stash for baby #3 and got some good deals on Bumkins diapers from Zulily.  (I heart Zulily!) And look at this print!  This was the exact diaper he was wearing when it all went horribly wrong. 

They are not high quality diapers like Bumgenius but then again the price is waaaaayyyy lower so I went for them.  Don't get me wrong, they work and I actually like the fleece lining but these diapers are not for leaving the house or leaving them on too long.  So why did I decide to put Pierce down for his nap in just a t-shirt and Bumkins diaper?   I will blame baby brain or maybe I was just too darn tired when I grabbed for a diaper.  But I regretted that decision immediately.   

Brady gets excited when Pierce is up from his nap so he volunteered to go get him.  Which basically just means he wants to open the door and say "where's my moosie?" which is what his mommy says.  And then I heard Brady say "Mom there's poop everywhere!"   SAY WHAT!?! Oh and there was poop EVERYWHERE.  Brady was actually not exaggerating for once :(  Apparently Mr. Pierce did the deed and managed to get his diaper off.  The snaps aren't as strong (damn cheap diapers).  Let's just say it was squished between his toes - everywhere!  He got a bath and I got to wash everything, including the bumper, sheet, blanket and mattress pad.  I was a little worried how the bumper would turn out but it stood up to the hot cycle very well.  Thank you PBK.  Luckily, Daddy arrived home just in time to help.  It IS good practice for his future career.  Later that night we came up with our new word and think it perfectly described the above situation.  Here's hoping you don't encounter a shitastrophe.  We are hoping that was our last!
