the case of the vanishing urine

My wife and I just had a very curious experience. She was involved in a pretty intense diaper change and we suddenly noticed that our son was sweating profusely from his head. We originally thought that it was from a new beanie which was trapping in heat. Being the new overly worried parents we are, we rushed to take his temperature (which came back normal). We figured it was a freak occurrence and so my wife began feeding him while I cleaned up the diaper station. I started to notice a few odd things. First, the corner of the diaper changing table was pretty wet. There also was a washcloth that had significantly more moisture than normal. I also noticed that Honest product gift box (don't ask, it's a popular granola brand of baby stuff) was soaked. At this point, I asked my wife if she noticed Micah had engaged in a mid-change target practice session. Although we both were in the room, neither of us saw him in the act of newborn graffiti. I began looking around the changing station and sure enough, there was liquid substance everywhere. What is baffling to me is not that this right of passage occurred, but rather that it happened without either my wife nor I noticing it.

We need more sleep.

Hey~! This is great! I remember these brand new infant days like it was just 6 months ago... Maybe because it was just 6 months ago! 😬😬😬 I love that your doing this! In addition to sharing and assisting our friends (and beyond) with your insights and observations, it's a great way to preserve your own memories of this special time! Good on you!! This post make me laugh. Just last week, our daughter peed WHILE I WAS STARING STRAIGHT AT HER OPEN DIAPER. Still pee everywhere. Sleep deprivation still going strong 6 months in. The best part is that no matter what she does, I do not find it even a little bit disturbing or gross. True love. ❤️ Welcome to parenthood. It's the most awf-some (awful-awesome) experience ever.
