Poor Juliette. She has come down with a bad case of diaper rash. Bryan and I are doing everything we can for her, but she's still uncomfortable. We've been soaking her bottom, using one of my extra peri-water bottles I got from the hospital to clean her bottom after every bowel movement, and letting her air out while I'm feeding her or she is napping. Who knew such a cute looking baby could produce such gross noises or make such a mess. If she has a larger bowel movement without her diaper on you better watch out. She can shoot that stuff at least 6-12 inches. Bryan has yet to get used to it. To make things worse for Juliette, her bottom gets irritated from even the smallest mess in her diaper, which happens very often at this point.
On a sweeter note, today, while the oven was on, nothing was burning but the smoke alarms went off while I was changing Juliette. To fix the alarms Bryan got the shop vac and took it upstairs to clear out whatever was making the smoke alarms go off. As soon as the vac went on, Juliette's eyes closed and she was down for the count. She slept with the vac on for almost 20 minutes. We've also noticed she likes her changing table downstairs and will start to doze off in it sometimes - as long as she has a clean diaper, of course!
