The Laundry Game

My boys had a competition today to see who could generate the most laundry. Here's the color commentary:

Competitor M made his splash into the game early on with a move we've not seen from him in some time: the soak-the-parents'-sheets-during-a-diaper-change move. The defense never saw it coming and could do nothing to stop it.

Competitor W was undaunted, however, and came back quickly with a power-play: He neglected to inform the referee of his need to potty and filled his underwear/shorts in the worst way. In an attempt to cover his mistake, he instituted the clean-it-up-yourself play to put himself well in the lead.

At this point the referee called a time-out and sent both competitors to bed.

Competitor M came back from the break rearing to go, with wet clothes and sheets to match.

It seemed for a brief period that Competitor W was out of the game, when he surprised the crowd by having another little accident--much less severe than the first, thank goodness--but enough to keep him in the game, for sure.

This blow to the laundry basket was met quickly and fiercely by Competitor M with a leaking poopy diaper, followed in rapid succession by several episodes of spitting up and another super-soaker move during a diaper change.

It was a bitter match to the end, but ultimately, the little guy--Competitor M--seemed to come out on top of the laundry heap. But the play of the game definitely went to the big man--Competitor W.
