like, even the thought of that conversation last night is making my throat tighten up.

It's amazing how quickly you get used to it. Poop, spit-up, pee, boogers...all easy to take...now. - Jim Jul 23, 06:44 16
- I think the fact that it's your responsibility now has a huge factor in it. No one else is going to clean it up, so ... you kind of have to do it. - JaxSean Jul 23, 06:46 3
  - plus, it smells like your own. baby beef just makes home feel more like home. -- nm - TFox Jul 23, 06:47
  - boogers is the only thing that grosses me out now. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 06:47 1
    - Suzanne still can't stand the kids puking. I'm the hair holder. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 06:49
- strawberry milk puke is the absolute worst. - groiny Jul 23, 06:45 11
  - Yeah, in the car puke is the worst. - JaxSean Jul 23, 06:48 8
    - that is the only time I wished I had leather seats. - groiny Jul 23, 06:49 4
      - Yeah, mine were leather, but under/between the seats was not. - JaxSean Jul 23, 06:50 3
        
        How old was baby? -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jul 23, 06:53 2
        
        Probably about 6 or 7. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 07:16
        
        15 -- nm - Jim Jul 23, 06:57
    - And they never do that shit in the winter...only when it's 100 degrees outside so the smell can bake into the seats. -- nm - Jim Jul 23, 06:49
    - i a hot car :) -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 23, 06:49 1
      - yup -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 06:50
  - ANY milk is horrid. Add to that milkshakes, ice cream, cottage cheese.... - Jim Jul 23, 06:47 1
    - not sure what it is about strawberry, maybe the color? - groiny Jul 23, 06:49
the way i look at it, if i'm ever going to be defeated by something, its going to be something bigger than a little beefmeat. - TFox Jul 23, 06:43
there is abig difference betweer you kids "nastiness" and any other kids...."gag-reflex" wise -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 23, 06:39

  - it's only for a few years hopefully at most....then that stuff luckily goes away in your memory -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 23, 06:41
I was like this also, but it kinda gets easier. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 06:39 14
- Yup. It's different when it's your kid. Your brain just overrides things and that's a good thing. But there was that one time my son's - HdnAgnda Jul 23, 06:42
- 5 times a day hardens you fast :) -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jul 23, 06:40 12
  - I got over it after the first diaper blowout. - groiny Jul 23, 06:40 11
    - Yup. And make it quick when changing the boys. Nothing worse then the fire hose getting you right in the face -- nm - amoxy Jul 23, 06:42 9
      - That doesn't piss me off as much as actually catching it with the diaper (which ruins that diaper) and then he does it again and again. I HATE a 4-5 - Jim Jul 23, 06:49
      - much prefer changing boys, girls have too many places for stuff to get stuck in. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 06:47 1
        
        SOOOOO glad I don't have girls. -- nm - Jim Jul 23, 06:50
