Thank RITU for discovering Flutterbug!!

Austin used to hate it when we changed his diaper. He would scream bloody murder whenever we got anywhere near his change table. It was really embarrassing because our neighbors could hear him and they were probably wondering what we're doing to the poor baby. When it was at its worst, he would scream so loud that he would even start choking! So, needless to say, we really needed to find a solution to that because it's hard enough to change his dirty diapers when his crap is flowing out all over the place. Add a screaming baby on top of it and it was a really messy job.

Well, our friend Ritu discovered this amazing toy which her daughter loves. So, we figured it was worth a shot to see if Austin would also love it. Anything was worth a try at this point. I was at my wits end getting his crap all over my hands as I tried to control the kiddo while he kicked and screamed. Don't get me wrong...I adore my son, but there's only so much crap I can handle!!

This toy is called Flutterbug. We put it above his change table and guess what?!! He adores it!! Austin can't get enough of Mr. Flutterbug. He even gets upset (grunts a bit) when we forget to wind it up (which plays music and makes his wings turn). So, thank you RITU for sharing your discovery with us!!

Unfortunately, he now kicks his legs out of excitement while watching Mr. Flutterbug. So, my days of dealing with flying crap aren't over yet! I have a feeling they're just beginning.

Below are some shots of little Austin (taken Oct 3rd -> 8 weeks old) as he watches Mr. Flutterbug.
