Today Kind of Sucked

  To start off a sucky morning, I didn't run my trail race due to exhaustion and my legs still not feeling up to it. I felt pretty crappy about that but I am telling myself it was a good decision not to. Tomorrow morning I hope to go for an easy 4 mile trail run at the USI trails, as long as my legs are feeling okay.
  Then to make the day worse, while giving Dorian a bath he decided to try and drown himself. Not exactly but as he still hasn't figured out that inhaling is not the same as drinking, that is what he did. I had the bathwater a little deeper than I should have, up to his belly button which gave him quicker access to leaning forward and drinking the bath water which he ended up inhaling before I could pull him back up to a sitting position for THIRD time, he started shaking and coughing and I started freaking out. I grabbed him up out of the water and started patting, slapping and thumping his back, I could have sworn he started to turn blue before he finally started breathing normal and stopped coughing. I was shaking then, we were all alone and I was so scared that my little boy was going to drown or suffocate, whatever you want to call it when they're no longer in the water but still dealing with the effects. Luckily he was fine, but from now on the bathwater will be no more than maybe 2-3 inches deep.
  Other than that, things have been okay today. Dorian seems to have issues with getting his diaper changed especially on his back (pretty much the ONLY way to do it), so that is usually a fight, especially if he's got a poopy diaper. I cannot wait until he is potty trained and using a toilet, or until he can understand words and maybe understand when I say no or knock it off.
