Why is there desitin on the floor?

If you walked into the ghettoplex kitchen right now, you would see an interesting sight. There is/are: two frosted cakes, a tube of desitin, some dirty bottles, a pile of wet cloth diapers, one uneaten ham and cheese sandwich, one bumbo-covered in pureed carrots and rice rusk, one massive pile of dishes, one unused disposable diaper, one mom-still unshowered and wearing one of Q's shirts which also has carrots, rice rusk, pee, and spitup on it, and a naked baby coated in desitin and sitting in the middle of the floor.

Slane has some serious diaper rash, so for most of the day we have been hanging out in the kitchen so she can air out and I can mop up the mess later. Every time she pees or poops she just screams and I felt so bad I just took the clothes and diaper off and let her go. So, yes there is some desitin smeared on the floor, but Slane is currently cooing contentedly. I think her little booty is very sensitive (we wouldn't know anything about sensitive skin in our family) and every time we try a new food it takes a while for that skin to grow accustomed. Hopefully a few hours of airing out will help. And when Q comes home from football it will be clean up time.

Have you tried the Burts Bees diaper cream? Our girls never had terrible problems with diaper rash, but when they did, that stuff was like magic. I recommend it to everyone I know :)
