Happy Fathers Day

It's Fathers Day and Scott had the weekend off!! He has been working so many hours the past couple of weeks it's no wonder he's been a little stressed. So with his weekend off, he told work not to call him. Colton had a Primary activity Saturday afternoon and it was a Fathers Day activity. They had all these compititions and races that you could do with your dad. He had so much fun and was so proud. They won the sponge competition. You soaked up the water from a bucket, ran to the other bucket and squeezed out the water. Whoever got all the water out first won, that was my boys! Colton had the wonderful idea that dad needed breakfast in bed. So we made none other than "Colton's favorite breakfast." We took it in to dad an sang to him and somewhere along the line, Colton got the idea that we ALL needed to eat with dad so we should all pile onto the bed....WITH OUR FOOD!! Nicholas crawled back and forth between everyone grabbing what food he could. Needless to say, my sheets and comforter now need to be washed! We then made a wondrful big dinner for dad and strawberry shortcake for dessert. I had him bathe the two little boys and his response was, "but it's Fathers Day, I'm suppose to have the day off." I explained that he did have it off...from work. But my gift to him was for him to have some intimate quality time with the boys...bathing them. Once Nicholas hears the water, he heads straight for the bathtub and stands up waiting to be put in. Scott undressed him and when it came time to take off the diaper, he undid the tabs and lifted the baby up, hoping the diaper would fall to the floor. Well, it didn't quite go that way. The diaper stuck to Nicholas because he had filled it! so when Nicholas went up, so did the diaper. Gravity set in once hanging over the tub and the dirty diaper fell into the water. At this point, Nicholas was so excited to get into the tub, he was kicking and squirming and laughing, trying to get down into the water. In the process, he bumped up against Scott a few times and left "marks" on Scotts shirt. I was hanging outside the door listening because I KNEW that the baby had a dirty diaper and wanted to see how Scott would react. (Aren't I a stinker??) Well, it was then that I heard a loud AMY, HELP QUICK, THERE'S A DIRTY DIAPER INT HE TUB AND NOW I HAVE POOP ALL OVER ME!! I walked in with the wipes, calmly fished the diaper out of the tub before it's contents washed out into the water and cleaned the baby while Scott held him in mid air arms straight out while practically gagging over the smell. Oh the joys of Fatherhood. Wonder if Bill Cosby had anything similar happen to him for Fathers Day? Didn't get any pictures of the day, but do have this fancy one of him in his Honor Guard uniform. Happy Fathers Day dear!!
