To tell or not to tell

I just don't know. ;-)
Well, we'll start out with the good news: I saved some wipes this morning. Bad news: well, really no bad "news" just a not-so-great story.
My morning was going well; my dogs, son, and I went for a walk at the park; the dogs behaved themselves and didn't drag me over kingdom come. We came home, and Nathan played outside for a while. We came inside, and Nathan (and Mommy) ate an apple and cheese for snack. Then I decided that I needed to run to the store before Nathan's nap. Which meant I needed a quick shower before Nathan's nap. He was playing happily, so I decided I would shut him in the bathroom with me and jump in the shower for two minutes (goodness, I really don't know if I want to post this; just thinking of all the "why in the world would you do that?" thoughts that will be going through your heads makes me a little embarrassed). Everything was going well until he plunged head-first into the bathtub. Okay, so, I can deal with a wet child who still has his clothes on. It took him a minute to decide that water pouring from the ceiling onto his head was okay, but he adjusted quickly....he likes water. I finished my second minute in the shower and turned the shower off so he could play in the water coming out of the faucet for a minute. I decided to take his clothes and diaper off while he was in the bathtub to minimize the amount of water on my floor; this was my mistake. I did not check his diaper before taking it off. It was dirty...very, dirty. Argh. I grabbed his arm to keep him from sitting on our bathtub liner and quickly pulled the liner out of the bathtub. I tried to keep him standing so that I could let out the water that was standing in the tub, but that didn't happen. I didn't exactly appreciate the fact that I was still standing in the water. So now I have another chore on my "to do" list today: disinfect the bathtub. Remember, though, I saved wipes!!!
