Diaper Beebe

Chapter 23 - QUALITY TIME

Little Brian was growing like a weed, at first he added ounces then

pounds. He continued to sleep and eat. Of course he went through package

after package of diapers. Because his little diaper sizes had increased,

Gary had to agree that these diapers were surely really little boy

diapers. He compared the ones he wears today with those that he came

home from the hospital with. Holding one of latest diapers in front of

himself, Gary made the mention that it would not be long before Brian

would be able to use his size.

"Not so fast buster!", Kim, Gary's mother said, "let him be a baby for a

little while more. But I have to agree with you, Brian is growing fast

these days."

Reaching for Brian's small hand, Gary let his little brother grab a hold

of his finger which Brian clamped on like a crab going for bait. Without

so much of a "can I" the finger found its way right into the open mouth

of the baby. Gary did not pull back but rather let the little one suck

on it for awhile.

Laughing, Gary observed, "He sure has a lot of spit for a little kid!"

The baby dribbled from the corners of his mouth. Not being satisfied

with what he had, Brian reached out, taking Gary by his two hands trying

to stuff the finger deeper into his mouth.

"Looks like he is hungry again." Kim moved toward the kitchen where she

had been preparing a warm bottle of baby milk.

When Kim returned to the living room she found Gary had lifted Brian

onto his lap cradling the child as he had seen his mother do so many

times. Teasing the boy with his finger both bothers were giggling with

Brian keeping both eyes on Gary's face.

"You love your brother don't you, son?" Kim had wished she had a camera

handy to catch this precious moment.

Without taking his eyes off his little charge Gary answered, "I do love

him, Momma, I love him a lot." leaning over he gave the infant boy a

kiss on the forehead.

Kim handed the warm milk bottle to Gary who took it with delight. He has

been able to bottle feed Brian a few times but for some reason this time

was like no other. He felt the child wiggle eagerly reaching for his

bottle.

"This time you'll get something for your efforts." Gary teased the

nipple over the babies lips, delighting in watching the child open and

close his sucking lips. Not to tease beyond limits Gary let the nipple

find its mark. Brian settled down for serious feeding letting his eyes

close as he enjoyed the pleasure of his warm bottle.

Gary continued to watch as if he was remembering his own babyhood. He

wondered if he was able to empty a bottle like this when he was a baby.

Kim assured him that he most certainly did empty many a bottle and that

he also cuddled just as Brian is doing right now. Kim told him stories

of his babyhood, helping Gary make the connection that he was once a

baby, too. Gary listened to every word his mother told him as he wrote

it upon the tablets of his heart. He never wanted to forget what she

tells him.

She told him of an older neighbor girl that used to hold him like a

doll, feeding him, burping him and even changing him.

This new information became of interest to Gary who asked, "You let a

girl change me?"

"She was a great help to me in those days." Kim reassured him that it

was OK. "I was with you and her most the time. I always knew she would

become a wonderful mother one day."

"Did she have to clean my poop pants, too?" Gary asked rather shyly.

"Yes many a time." Kim could see the shocked look on his face. "She did

a very thorough job of it, too." "As I remember, one time when you had a

tummy pain and just as she was changing your wet diaper you decided to

run at the other end also." Kim laughed at the remembrance of that day

really not so long ago.

"You mean I let go in my diaper?" Gary visualized this great adventure.

"No! Marty would have wished you had.... No, she had just pulled your

diaper open at the front and was about to pull it out from under your

butt when..... All I can say is it was a good thing the diaper was still

under you."

"Made a really big mess, eh, mom?" Gary looked down at his little

brother who had just finished off half the bottle.

"A mess is right! Marty was on her knees bending over you at the time.

By the time she realized what had happened it oozed out causing her to

reach for the wash rag trying to keep it from going onto the floor."

Both mother and son were tearing with laughter.

This outbreak of emotion caused Brian to stiffen and jump. "Oh, Oh, We

scared Brian. Its OK..... Shhhhh!" Gary began to rock the child until he

once again took the nipple into his mouth.

"Did you have to help Marty get me cleaned up?" Gary giggled.

"No, I was there if she needed help but she was very good at taking

responsibility. I did, however, think she was going to wipe the skin off

you bottom. She must have wiped you dozens of times. You needed cleaning

all over. I had to show her that she mustn't spend too much time

cleaning little boys."

"What ya mean, Momma?" Gary looked a little puzzled. "Didn't she get me

clean enough?"

"Oh yes, you were clean enough all right, the problem was, you were very

clean... she was just overdoing it a bit."

"Did I ever do that again?" Gary wanted to learn all about himself and

now that his mother was in a talking mood he began to pump her for more

information.

"Of course, not the same way, but you know it took you a long time to

get the potty training message into you head." Kim reminded Gary that he

still wears diapers for good reason at times.

"Mom.... why does it feel so good to wear diapers?"

"I don't really know, son, girls don't usually need them that long, you

will have to as your Daddy, I am sure he can help you with that

question." Kim thought she should change the subject but again Gary

asked another.

"Momma, Do you think Brian will like to wear them when is my age?"

"Well, I know some parents that would make you boys get out of them

after your 4th birthday if not out of them before. It was your dad that

convinced me that it would be best for you to continue using them until

you are ready to give them up..... I see no reason to rush Brian, maybe

he will potty train earlier.... I can't answer that!"

Kim left the two boys alone while she gathered up a clean diaper and

sleepers for Brian. On her return she began to change the baby and

prepare him for bed. Just then the phone rang.

"Honey, why don't you finish changing Brian and put on his sleepers

while I answer the phone, if it is who I think it is, I will be on the

phone a long time, please!"

His mother did not need to put a please on her request. Gary was

delighted to be the changer of the baby.

Alone together, Gary laid the boy on a changing pad and began stripping

away the few clothing until he got to the diaper.

"You better not pull anything like mom told about tonight, buster!" Gary

laughed.

But once the diaper was open the job had already been done. Taking the

wash rag and wringing out the water, Gary began the task set before him.

"What did mom mean by cleaning a boy too long?" Gary continued wiping

here and there until he saw no more loose brown stuff. One last wipe

with the cloth and Gary observed, "OH! that's what she meant!"

Kim returned to find her little angel was in his clean dry diapers and

cute little sleeper, she also noticed a contented grin on his face.

"Looks to me like you two brothers are going to get along just fine.

Thanks for the help, Gary, I appreciate your help."

"Think nothing of it, mom, that is what big brothers are for." Gary gave

his mother and brother one last hung and kiss the skipped off to his

room.
