A poopy diaper, a hospital trip, ice cream and a pedi

Well, I've had a few days at the baby home now. They have treated me so super! I feel more like a guest, but I try to help out where I can. I change diapers, and make funny faces/noises. I hold and rock babies when they cry... And i try to do the dishes.. until they notice then they make me stop. haha.

So, I have a story for you. In all my years of babysitting and what not I have never had to change a poopy diaper. I don't know how i managed this. But none the less, it happened. I knew it woudl happen here, i mean, how could it not-with 9 babies and all.. For the first 3 days it didn't happen. Could i possibly get away with this? Well, i think not. Teresa was my number one poopy diaper change. It was runny and gross.. plus they don't really have cleaning supplies so i had to run her under a tap, wipe her up with a piece of cloth and rinse the cloth diaper under a tap until the poo was gone. Yum. But, I managed.. and now i am basically a professional. haah. NOT. (remind me never to have children.. tee hee.)

A blond moment. Haven't had one in awhile so it was about time. I got in the van and tried to move these mini fans they have all around. You know when you're little and you wonder what will happen if you stick your fingers in the fan.. well, mine slipped and my fingers look like gills on a fish. I went to the hospital to get cleaned up, and some ointement. It wasn't as horrifying as i thought. but yes, one visit to the hospital, 70 rbs... less than two dollars.

I went shopping for the day, got some last minute things. i can't find vogue anywheres so i need to do that later. I was looking and looking, and almost at the point of giving up when a light of happiness spread upon me...a LAKME SALON! I got a pedi, for the cost of 5 dollars! I wanted to cry. my feet no longer feel like sandpaper... and as i was walking out.. what do i see.. a nice a/c ice cream parlor... could this day get any better?

I am looking forward to coming home, 6 days.. I feel like i am just exsisting through the days. I am looking forward to being busy again.. but, i guess i should enjoy this while i am here since i'll only be home for 2 days.

Thanks for reading, the emails and prayers.
Lots of love.
Cassandra
