explosive poo

so the last few days the little princess has had a little gas. today she finally got it all out with a gigantic explosive shart that sent poo all up her back. it was gross. i was meeting a friend out for lunch and heard the little girl pooting and tooting in the backseat. when…

baby noises

i honestly cannot believe the noises that come out of this little princess!!! her burps are quite manly and her farts put my husband to shame. if you are holding her, she vibrates your whole hand. and they are loud and usually wet sounding. its gross. i am not looking forward to the day that…

spit up
