"when the nurse started his bath, she sprinkled some of the water on him, and he sprinkled her right back."

It doesn't count yet. [Taunt] It isn't valid until he's ordained with the proper priesthood authority.

Has it been 9 months already??

Well good on you two for making such a lovely boy.

Hello, Benji!

My oldest boy was a whizzer of the first rank. We got home from the hospital and I took off all his clothes so Daddy could see his beautiful boy. The next thing I know Graham whizzed right over my shoulder from flat on the changing table and made a puddle on the carpet. Within a few weeks he also got the pediatrician, who muttered "25 points." I asked him what he meant:

5 points to new parrents who have no experienc
10 points to baby nurses who have some experience
25 to peds docs who ought to know better.

How many points has Benji now?

Congratulations many times over! Yes, it's true that little guys have their own special way of welcoming the world. Our oldest son soaked the Dr.'s gown the minute he was born. Hell-o, world!

Great name! Benji period, or Benjamin?

Benjamin is his full first name.

And I'd have to say he's at 10 points(the nurse [Laugh] ) on the whizzing score. So far I've had something blocking him both times he's tried to get me. And his mother has yet to get squirted. [Grumble]

My guess is she'll be get it before me as I am so careful/paranoid (I know he's gunning for me). [Big laugh]

Our son only ever nailed Shiz. And frequently. You'd think after the first 5-10 times he'd have learned to use the cloth burp rag that was left with the diapers for a reason.

Oh well. At least it wasn't me. (Though I do think he tried once.)

You should see my sister's baby shoot poo....

Casi, that reminds me of the time my husband tried to change a poopy diaper before baby dearest was done... [Laugh] It just kept coming...and coming... He didn't think it was nearly so funny. [Big laugh]

Hmm... it sounds like perhaps these would be a good idea for more than one set of parents here... [Wink]

And congrats to DaKnife and Janey. It seems like just yesterday I was lurking in the singles thread watching the tumbleweed mafia do their work. *sniff* where does the time fly to?

Jaimilyn: "the pee-pee teepee" [ROFL]

Actually, we got pretty experienced at avoiding the sprinkler. You put a clean diaper under baby's bottom before you take off the wet one. You take the wet one off with one hand and immediately pull up the new diaper and cover up the "sprinkler" with the other hand.

It's the poopy diapers that get you though ... they sprinkle while you're wiping the bottom.

oh what they won't think of next... LOL

Wonderful wishes for your family's very bright future! I'm so happy for you!

p.s. I learned by experience that uncircumsized boys don't squirt, they just dribble. [Smile]

My husband got his doctor IN THE MOUTH when he was born. [ROFL]

Don't tell him I told you that!

Oh we were so young when my first baby came. She was the fascination of every one of my then-hubby's cronies. This was back in the day of free love and long hair and lots of creative hanging out so as the first parents of the group we had a load of "uncles" always inhabiting the living room. Every one of em waiting in line to hold the baby.

Rebecca was a nursing baby and for those of you who do not know, nursing babies poop soup. Sometimes her ecologically sound cloth diapers were up to the task, but more often she leaked and it was a true mess. One of the guys was around more often than the others and had his share of diaper failure experiences so he created adaptive defensive behaviour. He would gently take the baby up and hold her a foot away from himself and ask " She s..t yet?" [Roll Eyes] before settling in with Becca parked on his chest to listen to Emerson, Lake and Palmer. What was funny was this guy was a real hippy and here was my tiny beautiful pink package all nested on her "uncle" bioth happily zoned out.

I felt more like a den mother than a wife in those days.

Congrats!!!! He is a cutie.

My nine month old has not yet sprinkled us. I keep waiting for it to happen, I am actually a bit freaked out that he hasn't. My toddler got everyone and anyone that came into his reach. When my toddler was born there was a line of clothing at Carter's that had a whale and it said "Little Squirt" on it. I got a few pieces for my own little squirt. [Big Grin]

I have to say, I'm a mean sister. When I saw my neice shot poo at my sister, I grabbed her camera and took pictures instead of helping her clean it up, lol!

My brother and SIL used a rectal thermometer on my niece without knowing that it's kind of like giving an explosive enema. When baby blew out, they went and got a camera and took pictures of the mess before cleaning it up. Nasty pictures.

I am 5 years older than my next sister, so I remember this real well, after she could sit up and stay, she started giving herself a hair treatment. And she used materials real close at hand. She has the prettiest hair of the 3 sisters.
