We had a chocolate lab when we first got married, and she was great. We've really started to miss her, and it was nice not having to sweep my dining room floors after each meal. He convinced me she was potty trained, and kinda starting to not be hyper.
So, he and the two big boys brought her home last night while I was cooking dinner on the stove. The twins, while the were excited talking about the idea of a doggie, were scared. to. death. when she came in. Here I was cooking dinner, one twin hanging off one of my legs like a spider monkey, another twin squished between me and the oven, the baby crying in the playpen, and the big boys chasing the dog around. Oh boy.... After about an hour the twins warmed up to her.
So this morning my husband let her out, as promised, and I was dressing the boys-just like I usually do at that time of day. All was going well. The oldest two were dressed, and I was gathering clothes for the baby while the twins ran around in newly cleaned diapers. My groove was totally messed up when I hear, "Mommy, she poo-ooped!"
Yeah. You read that right. There was a poop trail down my carpeted hallway. Ugggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...... (I'd make that longer, but I think you get the point.)
So I put my diapered baby and twins in the crib while I send the dog outside and I use baby wipes and diapers to clean the bulk of it whilst trying not to barf. The smell didn't go away, so then I got out the shampooer, all the while the youngest three are crying and screaming to get out. I finished shampooing, dressed everybody, and now I'm nursing the baby as he drifts to sleep. When I put him down, I'll be diffusing some of my Young Living essential oils down in the smelly part of the house. Purification is my go-to oil for smelly occasions, such as this.
