Burping in Bed for the First Time

It took me a couple days to realize why Padon was describing throwing up all over his bed and on his blanket as "burping". It wasn't until I was patting Sophia and saying to her, "do you have to burp?" and thinking in my head "please don't let it be a gusher..." that I realized oh, ha! Baby burping was just a pleasanter version of vomiting! Sadly Padon's burping came with a lot of sharp stomach pains and necessitated a night on the living room floor, on an air mattress, near the pergo (?) floor (easy to clean up), with Mommy sleeping on the couch near by for moral support and lots of hugs and kisses.

Funny enough the next morning, after a night of no vomiting, Padon was playing with some bandaids left out by me, and Walter went to take them away saying, "Oh, no Padon, those are only for owies." To which Padon replied, "Tummy owie, have that bandaid?" How can you say no, when your toddler just justified your logic? So out came a bandaid to cover the spot that had an owie. Padon was careful to make sure the bandaid stayed and two days later it was still there until it became the casualty of an exploded diaper.
