Don't tempt fate

When it comes time to change your babies diaper, quickness is the key to dryness. Prepare your new diaper, wipes, creams/ointments before hand. Before leaving the hospital, the nurse asked to watch me change our new son's diaper. This would not have been a problem except that with a fresh circumcision there was a new step of adding petroleum jelly to a gauze pad distracted me as he lay naked on the bed. The lack of sleep didn't help my decision making either as we watched our son pee directly into his own left eye. Lauren has always warned me to cover him with a wash cloth and even suggested having his new diaper underneath his old one just in case the cool breeze inspires a little yellow rain. Stay dry.
