In the meantime, Heather had located a pair of undecorated baby pants of opaque plastic. “Try these, Mandy,” she suggested. “They’re toddler-size, says they’ll fit babies over 35 pounds.” Each girl struggled to pull the narrow openings over Kim’s feet and up his legs, but when the waistband reached Kim’s diaper, the vinyl drawn taut around his thighs, they again abandoned the effort. “Shit!” Heather responded. “They might be a tight squeeze without the diaper, but they’ll never fit over it. I guess they don’t mean they’ll fit everybody over 35 pounds, at least not if they’re wearing a huge diaper.”
“It’s going to be hard to keep Baby dry without plastic panties,” Mandy said. “Hey, Heather,” she mused, “We need to make a shopping list and see what we can find for Baby at the mall tomorrow.”
