Man Vs... Pug?

In today's epic episode, a child get's gassy, a dad goes wonky and a pug goes.. well.. he just went.. no 2 that is.. at 5 freaking 30 in the am!

So it wasn't enough that Jalen had a multi-poo day yesterday that stretched our diaper budget (hey at 30 cents/diaper it adds up!), but our pug Scrabble had to get in on the act and deliver his own version of the Hershey squirts. Woke up to the little pugger scratching furiously at the bedroom door - after i took him out, i was relieved to see I still had approximately 30-40 mins till Jalen's official wake up time.

Jalen had other ideas.

5 minutes later, yep, you guessed it... another diaper change.

And here I was hoping for a slow day.

Fortunately, Jalen was feeling a tad bit better today, no explosive poo's and he only had 2 bowel movements. I wonder, 12-13 years from now, if he'll appreciate me blogging about his no.2's? hmmm.. food for thought.

Either way, was an ok sorta day.. we were expecting the cleaning lady to show up, but she never did so Jalen and I took a well deserved 1 hr nap.. did that ever feel good. Felt so good that I even summed up the courage to delve into cooking and serve up a dish so succulent it would drive Anton's out of business.

Yes I made pasta... from scratch.. well.. mostly.. i mean.. i bought the noodles and yeh the sauce was out of a jar but hey, i cooked the lean meat myself! Wasn't too bad, although i think i made enough for a small army, so if anyone's hungry, feel free to let me know!

In other news Jalen also farted on my face today. Good times.

It was a tough day missing my wife tho i must admit.. we only got to skype for a few minutes so that was good but considering this is day 4 we've been away from each other, it was pretty difficult. Thank goodness the Canucks were playing today! :)

My observation of the day : I now understand why Flo relegates tasks to me or leaves stuff for me to do. With all the OTHER crap that needs to be done which i never really see to appreciate, it's nice to be able to leave the simple stuff for the other half to do so you can get some moments of relaxation. As it stands right now, i've got a huge clean up job to do this weekend since the cleaning lady didn't show up so it will be exhausting. Anyone want to come help feel free, you'll get pasta :)

oh and Jalen had the garbage fell on him and like any good parent, first thing i did was take a pic :)

Enjoy!
