For 6 months I have carried around a change of clothes in Jacob's diaper bag like a good, prepared mom does. Jacob does not spit up, throw up, or have diaper blow outs (yet) and so I have NEVER had to use the extra clothes. Until last night.
We went to dinner with some friends and Jason was holding Jacob in front of him, with Jacob on the table. Before Jason knew it Jacob had grabbed his glass of water and dumped it (ice water) all over his legs and the table. Jacob was a bit startled.
We happened to have a large bath towel with us and Jason lifted Jacob up and I mopped up the mess. Here is a picture with Jacob sitting back on the towel before we changed his clothes. Please note the ice still sitting on the table in front of Jacob.
Why did we have a large bath towel with us, you may ask...doesn't everyone carry a towel into a resturant when they eat with a baby? Actually, we brought it because Jacob is beginning to be able to sit up in chairs for a small amount of time. So we brought the towel to put around him to help him sit up.
I have now dutifully repacked the baby bag with new sets of changes of clothes...you never know. Too bad the bag is too small for a large bath towel.

I'm happy for you it was only water--and nothing else!
i am sure you are really tired of my comments only being, JACOB IS SO CUTE!! well, he is!!! every picture of him that i look at, that is what i think! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your dinner!
btw-sorry you had to see those pictures on jessica's blog!! those are so embarrassing! if only i knew her password then i could delete that post! :)
AML!
Way to go! The Scouts would be proud. I've found a plastic bag in the diaper bag has come in handy too. Regretably, I too do not have room for a towel.
I'm jealous that Jacob never had blow outs or spit-ups... Eva is just now NOT having those every time we go out!
