Scents-a-rific

I don't know about you, but I've always heard about how a woman's nose is on overdrive when pregnant. I do recall it being a little stronger when pregnant with the kids, but it didn't seem as much like it was actually stronger, I just had more of an aversion to certain smells.


This weekend I discovered what they really meant.

Yesturday my daughter had an 'accident' in the bathroom. She almost made it to the potty, but somehow didn't quite get there in time. My husband cleaned up the mess (yay!) as I was downstairs at the time. Came down with the bath matt and a towel, looking less than pleased. But, he took care of it.

During the night, as per usual, I had to visit the 'ladies room'. My goodness, but what a strange smell there was! I remembered the evening's escapade and decided that the incident must be the cause. This morning I washed everything up really well... and was happy to note it smelled a little less... gross. However... I went back in to shower and smelled it yet again. Now I hadn't a clue what was going on... until I stepped into the tub...

...And I saw the new shower head my husband just installed Saturday afternoon.

You know, the new plastic smell? It is usually not so strong that you'd notice it unless you put it right to your nose... but this smell permeated the entire bathroom for me. I'm just so glad I know what it is now (and that it isn't what I first thought it was, haha).

Anybody have any silly stories to share?

Haha...

When I was expecting, I had forgotten the name of a familiar piece of furniture. A friend kindly reminded me that it was a chair.

Good times :)
