A Messy Day

Back in June we had a very eventful day on one of our drives to visit grandparents.  We were taking Aubrey for her first swim and on the drive there we fed her; Evie driving, Brandon feeding Aubrey.  When Aubrey was finished, Brandon was securing the bottle in the diaper bag.  In the brief seconds he took his eyes off of Aubrey, she grabbed a toy that was nestled between her legs and the seat.  When Brandon first looked up he saw something on her face, but he thought it was just spit up.  Upon further reflection, he realized she hadn't eaten anything of that color that day.  This left him with only one likely culprit...he was right.  It was all over the toy and all over her hands.  It was on the seat and yes...it was on her face.  We're talking about number 2: poop that is. 

Brandon quickly exclaimed, "Pull over now!" I retrieved the wipes and the camera from the trunk and we cleaned her up the best we could before continuing, but not before we had time to snap a quick picture.  Needless to say, the clean up was not fun.  The second we got to Brandon's parent's house we stripped her clothes off and brought her straight into the shower to hose her down.  (As a side note, her diaper was almost empty....talk about bad luck).  The seat was then also hosed down and washed thoroughly and set out to dry for a day.  Aubrey proceeded to go for her first swim and the day was then salvaged.  Definately a car ride to remember!
