My husband and I put our kids to bed last night like we always do, I stayed up for awhile, while the DH got ready and went to bed early, for an early wake up.
After a couple of hours, I headed upstairs and found my older son in the bathroom. His underpants (aka pajamas) were wet. Now this isn't a regular occurrence, but it isn't necessarily unusual either (small bladders run in the family). Herding him back to his room in the dark to change and go back to bed, I with my bare foot came across a wet spot on the carpet. Now unfortunately my first thought went to dog puke....really. For the moment I thought it was more important to get my son back to bed, I headed in, made sure his bed wasn't wet, (it wasn't) and put him back to bed.
By the light of my cellphone I located the wet spot, which alas was not puke, yea! I went downstairs got a handful of paper towels to soak up the mystery wet spot, and started cleanup. Of course in an attempt to discover what it was, I sniffed the paper towels, after soaking the first handful and of coarse it was pee. He must have gotten up, then stood in the middle of the room and just went....
It took me two more trips downstairs to get enough paper towels (cause I couldn't have just brought the roll up) to soak it up enough to feel okay leaving it until morning.
In the morning, bringing the spot bot upstairs, my son asked what I was doing. He didn't remember any of it. Awesome.
