Ann.without.an.e Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I know, that I know, that I know, that it is chocolate. I watched DS get down from his chair with his chocolate covered hands and head toward the bathroom. I mean, I know that it is chocolate so why does it make me cringe? I have such a sensitive stomach. :banghead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spryte Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Yours is chocolate. Ours is face paint. I *know* it's face paint. Still, the cringing. :leaving: Going to scrub it off now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrairieSong Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Be glad that it is not green craft paint that is smeared all over your hallway wall and carpet...bright Kelly green that gets repainted over, and eventually you do replace the carpet. Sigh. Chocolate would have been so easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Have you heard my family's "Poopy Picasso" story yet? All I know is that if I was Joy, I would have never wanted to use a toothbrush again. EVER. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 LOL! A couple of months ago my 7yo said, "Mom, I have chocolate in my underwear!" WTH!!??? You KNOW where my mind went. And my sister was there too, thinking, "gosh, so much for them being potty trained!" But seriously, it was chocolate. I never did get a clear explanation of why she thought shoving chocolate into her drawers seemed like a good idea. Not sure I want to know.

Ewe Mama Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 All I know is that if I was Joy, I would have never wanted to use a toothbrush again. EVER. :D Oh no, it was Joy who used Simon's toothbrush. She didn't use her own because THAT would have been gross. Fortunately Simon was only about 20 months old, so he has no recollection. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewe Mama Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Joy was about 3.5, Simon was around 19-20 months, and Theodore and Alvin were roughly 6 and 5 months old. This was pre-Faith pregnancy. As I recall it was after lunch and I was trying to get everyone down for naps. Joy was amusing herself quietly while waiting for me to come back downstairs to read to her after doing the change diaper, bottle/nurse, tuck into bed routine with all her little brothers. She was under strict orders to not do anything noisy. Mission accomplished upstairs, I came down to get Joy ready for her nap. Usually she waited on the couch with a pile of stories and we would snuggle up and read. She wasn't in her usual spot, so I went looking for her. I found her in the bathroom, painting poop on every surface in the bathroom with her LITTLE BROTHER's toothbrush. She was exhibiting quite an artistic flair, too. I could recognize a tree and a family like ours and various suns and swirls. There may have been some early attempts at hearts, as well. All done in poop. After the shock and horror wore off I had the presence of mind to ask her why she had used her brother's toothbrush rather than her own. She looked at me as though I had grown two heads and patiently explained that it would be too icky to brush her teeth if she had used her own. She grimaced when I asked her if Simon would like using a yucky toothbrush any more than she would. She said something that was the equivalent of, "Better him than me." If I hadn't had to spend the next two hours cleaning and disinfecting the bathroom from top to bottom, I would have laughed myself into the funny farm. She was cleaned up, strongly admonished to never do it again, and sent to bed without any stories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least she did it with style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least she did it with style. Oh, he knows that story! :D. No dental hygiene phobias, either, so he hasn't been scarred for life. Yes, she certainly did do it with style! That is one of the few hilarious Joy stories we can pull out and dust off from time to time. She is actually our most straight-laced child, so I am delighted to have a little ammo in the parental blackmail bag for future use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
