One Stinky Day

2 dogs sprayed by a skunk + 2 diaper blowouts + 1 raunchy cat butt = ONE STINKY DAY!!

We woke up at about 4:30 this morning and let the dogs outside. I heard Chopper barking and some knocking noises. I told Jared about it and he went to inspect. He came back in and said it smelled like a skunk and then let the dogs in the house. BIG MISTAKE! The smell of those dogs could make a morgue worker vomit. Out they went and we have shampooed them with "Skunk Off" and will repeat tomorrow.

Lainey is not a subtle pooper. She grunts, groans and gets the reddest face when she's doing a number in her diaper. Today, however, she managed to sneak not one, but two loads by me. We had to wash 2 bouncy chair covers and two outfits. They should warn you in books that once you start feeding your baby fruits and veggies, that you should also start clothing them in plastic garbage bags or rubber suits. Ugh. So we changed and bathed and we are all set for the night.

The cat....13 years old and foul. She is the anti-Christ of the animal world. She chews power cords, hisses and bites company and runs around the house roar/growling (that's the only way I know how to describe the noise coming out of her). Her butt and guts have gotten increasingly stale over the years. I'll spare you the details, but maintaining her litterbox added to the fun of the day.

The day all seems worth it, though, when I go to get my little Lainey out of her bassinett and she issues me the sweetest smile I have seen in my whole life. Here's hoping tomorrow is a little rosier.....
