The Terrible Two's Begin


Here she is in all of her nail polish glory:


We were ALL in time out the other day. All of us except Jared. Poor little guy doesn't even get to have a treat for being good. Me? I left the nail polish in an accessible bag. Brian was watching Claire and didn't "watch" her for a couple of minutes and/or make sure the room was Claire-proof. Claire was in trouble for making an enormous mess.

She ate fingernail polish (not toxic we've found out), got it all over the carpet (as you can see in the picture) and the couch, and obviously decided to be an artist all over her body. I was coming home from a Dr. Appt. when Brian called to tell me. He said, "after I found out she was going to be ok I was fine." After I found out she was going to be ok I was upset. He asked me why.

It's because I had to clean it up.

Isn't that always how it goes? Mom's get the lovelier side of things. Here are a couple of redeeming pictures for the kiddos.





Hmmm.....most of them are sleeping pictures. I guess you know my favorite time of day.

Oh my goodness, i'm so sorry i laughed so hard at her nail polish destruction picture! I'm truly sorry for your couch and carpet though- did you get it out?! I love all the sleeping pictures, they're so precious when they're holding still and peacefully silent :) You're such a good mom!

This seems like one of those moments where it's funny for EVERYONE ELSE to hear about, but for you, probably horribly frustrating. Thanks for sharing though! I definitely had a good laugh!
