"Poo-poo"

We have been waiting for Charlie to start saying consonants, as he's had his vowels mastered for a while now. At dinner last night Jonathan was feeding Charlie his rice cereal and Charlie was eating like a pro. (We usually put him in his bouncy seat on the table, since we haven't purchased a highchair yet.) Then, suddenly, Charlie started squirming and poop started exploding out of both leg holes of his diaper. We both just stared at it and at him. I started giggling, because it was so unbelievable. Then I gingerly unbuckled him and picked him up by his feet and under his neck and quickly carried him, hoping he wouldn't drip on our white carpet, to the changing table. There were pools of poop in the seat and his diaper was not better and for some reason I found this unbelievably funny. (note: it is much harder to change a diaper when you are laughing hysterically)

Anyways all this to say, Charlie topped off the event by voicing his first consonants, which we thought very appropriate. His comment was "poo-poo".
