I'll apologize in advance for this somewhat graphic post, but as a parent of a baby the topic of "poo" seems to come up pretty often...
As Lincoln gets older, his digestive system has been maturing and his previously semi-liquid mild-smelling poo is tranforming into a semi-solid horrifically-smelling assualt to the senses. He has also become "irregular", sometimes pooing every day, sometimes going for 3 or 4 days without a "delivery". As such, Scott and I (along with our unwitting daycare provider) are playing a constant game of hot pootato. No one wants to be home alone with Lincoln when he finally poos, but as days pass wihtout a dirty diaper, we each know that the odds of either of us being stuck with changing duty goes up exponentially. The risk is exacerbated by the fact that Lincoln can't sit still long enough to do a quick "wet only" diaper change, which means that when he poos we risk having him try to crawl away while diaper-less and dirty...
I've decided that when Lincoln turns 16 I'm going to show him and his buddies this post and then maybe...just maybe...that will make it all worthwhile...

Interesting story. I'm so looking forward to those days with our boy. Can you tell when he is making the dirty diaper? That may be a good time to have to go shopping...if not left alone with him!
The fun part of having a baby! we are finally on the internet. John has been working onehanded to fix it. Lincoln changed a lot since we last saw him- teeth, hair and crawling. We miss him a lot and all of you.
Yay! I'm glad the grandparents Hauner are back online!
Lincoln is a pretty gassy guy, so it's sometimes hard to tell if the stench originating from his behand is an actual poo or just a fart. Except for the smell being a *bit* worse, it's really impossible to tell when he's making a "delivery".
Poo must be the thing to blog about. Check out Amy and Keith's blog site!! http://rubymoondreams.blogspot.com/
That is hilarious! Good times!
