Water logged

This morning, while my husband, Dave, was getting ready for work, and me and my 6 month old son, Jesse, were cuddlin' in bed, a memory popped into my mind. Why is it, that some memories just seem to fade, or disappear, and others seem to play over and over? I'm sure there is a very logical answer to this question, but I really don't have time to look into it. Let me know the answer if you do! So... as I was saying, all of a sudden, I remembered the funniest thing Dave had done back in the summer. Dave had decided to give Jesse a bath one sunny and warm evening in July. I was pretty useless and quite emotionally unstable for the first month after giving birth (why didn't anyone tell me how horrible life would be for the first few weeks?!) My helpful and relentlessly kind Hubby had been doing all diaper changes and baths since the baby's birth. It's not like Dave didn't know how to go about this bathing procedure. I was laying down trying to get some rest, and I hear this distressed wail from the bathroom, "Chris...can can you come here?" I go into the bathroom, and Dave has run the bath water, gotten out the brush, facecloth, soap, and prepped the baby towel for afterwards. I look into the bath, and Jesse is totally immersed in the water WITH ALL HIS CLOTHES on. The poor little waterlogged onesie and diaper were sucked to the poor child's skin, like poorly fastened cling wrap.

"Can you help me get his clothes off," Dave had asked me.

"Why didn't you take them off before you dunked him in the water?" was my reply.

"I..... dunno......." Dave had replied back slowly with a totally confused look on his face. We worked together peeling off the wet layers, off an already PO'd baby, and Oh how I laughed....

And then POOF. I forgot about it. I don't know how. I didn't even tell anyone about it. But then this morning, "it's all coming back it's all coming back to me now." (I had a Celine Dion Tape when I was a kid with that song on it, and that line pops into my head, and out through my mouth on several occasions) Anyways, LONG story short, I thought I would keep a blog of the day to day interesting things that I want to remember, and some of the random thoughts I have. I'm currently on mat leave and am home with Jesse, while Dave is out in the real world teaching history and English at a Private High School. I think it'll be good to keep my fingers agile, and my brain sharp. Jesse will be up from his nap soon, and I should likely go eat something for lunch while I have a spare minute. I made some delicious home-made gluten free meatballs yesterday in the slow cooker, and I'm salivating just thinking about it. I'm off. Thanks for reading :)
