The Stinker Strikes Again!

OK Ode to Katie part deux...

Ian went to Utah last weekend to translate for conference and when my sweet friend Amy found out I was husbandless she invited us over for dinner yesterday. It was so nice to get out of the house after sitting on the couch all weekend watching conference. Dinner was delicious and we had a great time...Mckenna had too great of a time. When we were just about ready to go home Mckenna came downstairs looking very... wet. She loves to play in the sink so I assumed that's what she'd been doing. If only that's all it was...

She'd gotten into the Vaseline!! She spread it all over her face, hair, neck, hands, bottom(because Spencer told her it was for bottoms...), legs, feet, shoes, and even on a bowl, towel, stuffed snake, and into the carpet!! And it wasn't even my house! I felt awful! Luckily one of their kids has done this in the past, so it wasn't too big of a deal. But I still felt bad! She is such a stinker!! Why is it that some kids just have a tendency to find and play with everything they should not play with?

Hope this helps you feel like you're not alone, Megan B.!!

Ohhhh Megan! I am so SORRY! I know what stinker kids are like. I like to think of them as just REALLY curious and so they want to get into everything to see what is it like! I bet you felt worse than your friend did though!? We have vertical blinds on our windows and Wesley thought it would be fun if he RIPPED some down...not just ONE but EIGHT! So our windows are now bare. Thank goodness for Home Depot!

Thanks for the post....Katie is obsessed with hand soap. She thinks it's lotion and wipes it on her face and hands and arms, which ends up in her hair too. Yuck. Vaseline would be worse, and at a friends house. Ugh. It's no wonder my kids get bathed daily, they need it! - well at least Katie does!

How in the world did you get that all off?

Dishwashing soap is great! We had such a great time yesterday, it was worth a couple minutes of cleanup. Besides, it was payback for the time Spencer "missed" the toilet at your house. Turn-about is fair play.
