You have GOT to be kidding me

So today Graham and I had a battle of sorts. It all started last night. I had just given him a bath, and he was naked save for a diaper in his crib when he spit up all over his blanket and proceeded to crawl through it. Argh!
So no biggie, wipe him off, and get the second blanket out. It's not the one that I usually put him to bed with since it is smaller. I usually use this one to take places with us, but he loves both of them, so it was fine. I needed to do laundry today anyway, so I'd clean the blanket soon.
So I do laundry. His load got done while he was taking his afternoon nap today. So I'm folding his laundry and then he wakes up. I hand him his blanket when he gets up, and he is excited to see it. Within 10 minutes he spits up all over it. Not just a little, a lot of gross stuff. Argh!
No biggie, I still had 2 more loads to put in the laundry today. So I put his blanket back in the wash and was thinking that it would come out right in time for bed. Sure enough, right when it's time for bed, the dryer stops and I go and get his blanket. He is once again excited to see it. He almost tips himself into the laundry basket as he tries to get to it. So he has his blanket and keeps on face planting into it. Within 10 minutes he totally spits up all over it. Gross orange carrot spit up.
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!
At this point all you can do is laugh. There are some pants that have not been washed yet, so I can still scrounge up another load, and very little spit up has gotten on his other blanket, so we can still use that. I swear, it's like this kid is marking his territory. So the only reason that his blanket will not be soiled again today is because he is in bed already. I'm nervous to give it to him tomorrow. Maybe he'll only be allowed to have it in bed, except that that is where this whole thing started!
What a stinker!
