My Grandpa must be really old. I'm thinking this because Grandpa tells me that when he was my age people didn't have computers and there were no such things like Blogs or Facebook or Twitter or Skype or email. Grandpa says that back in his day people actually wrote letters by hand when they wanted to share what was going on in their lives. OK. Seems kind of backward to me but what do I know. Grandpa says that all this new technology makes it too easy to share too much about ourselves. He says that people sometimes share things that no cares about or needs to know about. So sorry Grandpa, you may think that what I'm about to tell the people is a little too much information (and it probably is) but I'm going too anyway. Why? Because number one, the whole purpose of this blog is for me to have something to look back on and remember things that happened when I was a baby, and number two, it's just freakin' funny.
So last night night we all stayed up a little late watching a movie. It's Complicated with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin. Because we stayed up late we had a little trouble getting up for church this morning. I needed a bath. So to save time while Mommy was taking a shower, Grandpa put on his swimming trunks and got in the bathtub with me . He washed my hair and got it all clean. I played with my rubber duckies (they make bath time sooo much fun!) and splashed around a bit. Then it hit me. You know that special feeling that you get in your lower abdomen...when your intestines start to tell you something is about to happen. Well, what can I say. It happened. Just like those tee shirts and bumpers stickers say. It happened, right there in the bathtub. I don't think Grandpa noticed it right away but as soon as he noticed those little floaters....well, I've said it before and I'll say it again...he can move fast for a big man. We were out of that tub like a super charged dragster taking off at green light.
Now I will agree with you that is was more than a little gross, but you should have seen my Grandpa. Talk about freakin' out. He dumped me off to Grandma and went straight for the shower. Then a few minutes later you could hear him through the entire house gagging while he was cleaned out the tub. It was hilarious! Hilarious for everyone but Grandpa, that is. I don't feel too sorry for Grandpa because he knows I'm a pretty regular girl and I take care of my business in the morning and also because he deserves it for not getting the flu last week like the rest of us.
OK...that's all I have to say about that.
Remember how I said my Great Aunt Joy was coming? Well she is here. We are having so much fun. She is trying so hard to use her good words but it is difficult for her. She's being really good for the most part although she did send Grandpa a text message while he was going out for Chinese food that included some words I can't share on this blog.
Aunt Joy bought me some new toys including a new baby doll that I am calling Baby Joy. Baby Joy is completely bald and Grandpa is very inappropriate and has been calling her little chemo baby. I don't care what Grandpa says I love my Baby Joy.
Aunt Joy gives the best baby massages. She's got the magic hands!
My Aunt Joy is also very silly. If I didn't know this was a pillow under her blanket I would think she looks a little far along having only been married for two months.
