ravinlunachick Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I discovered this: Thank goodness Tide got it right out of the carpet and off the wall. Unfortunately, it didn't come off her skin very well! She now has pink eyebrows and pink streaks in her hair. Good thing Halloween is coming up, huh? :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravinlunachick Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Oh! My!! Gosh!!! What is it?! Whoops! I mean to include that in the OP! She got into my older dd's lipgloss. One tiny little container, less than a tsp, did all that! The picture doesn't do justice to the horror. She had a THICK coating on her face, hands, and neck, and it was dark red, too.

Xanadu Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 :lol: She's so darn cute!!!! Reminds me of the time my son, then 2, took a case of prismatic artist markers (more permanent than sharpie and uber wide tips) and wrote all over himself while we slept. We awoke at 5:30 am to see him sitting on the bed next to us covered head to toe. It took a cup of coffee for my eyes to open wide enough to realize that DH was covered from head to toe as well, but only on his back....(apparently the munchkin had awoke an hour before us and felt the need to express himself) As I stood there laughing while he pulled the our monkey from the bathtub...He turned to look at me to ask why I was laughing and burst out laughing himself....At that moment I knew...and sure enough I hadn't been lucky enough to just get tagged on my back...My face was covered in scribbles. It took over a week and daily scrubbing to finally get the marks to fade away from my face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meriwether Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 (edited) I'd hit the roof if one of my kids did that.

ravinlunachick Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Perhaps now her description in my siggy makes sense. She still has it caked in the creases of her eyes and fingers and up her nose. I suppose I'll have to battle her to use a q-tip to clean that.

Perogi Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I opened the thread, saw the top half of the picture and thought, "oh, how cute!" Then I kept scrolling down, saw it on the CARPET and gasped out loud! I'm so glad that Tide got it out of the carpet. Did you stay calm? Honestly I would have freaked. So far we haven't had any major mishaps like that. A friend of mine who has 2 boys has told me some awful stories - an entire bottle of baby powder emptied all over a room during nap time, a boy covered head to toe in vaseline....

I wouldn't say I was calm, but I didn't yell or scream. That had plenty to do with the fact that my dh is sleeping in the bedroom right across from dd's "art". When I took her into the bathroom to wash it off her face (haha), she looked in the mirror and said, "Hey! Look at me! I'm boo-tiful! And RED. Very very red, Mama!" I had to stifle some laughter at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravinlunachick Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 pink canoe, I spent nearly 20 minutes on Saturday with a Magic Eraser, going around the house and getting all her scribbles off the walls. We have to lock up all our pens and pencils because of her fondness for decorating the walls. Of course, she's also the only child of mine to cut her own hair. I swear, I really DO supervise this child! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In similar circumstances, I've been so busy yelling, or stifling yells, to think of that. I have too, and every time afterwards, I kick myself for not getting a picture for blackmail later! I just happened to have my phone out as I climbed the stairs, because I was checking the time. TeacherZee, I could totally see Boo doing something like that. Lord help us all (and especially the dog!) when she discovers glue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
