Ah Kids..

A friend of mine posted a picture of his kid covered in baby powder.  Well him, his bed, the pillows... you get the idea.  Its funny to see this since most parents have a story about their kids destroying stuff.

I think that one gift you get when you have a kid is "Parent Spidey-vision."  Its the ability to tell when your kids are up to no good, even when you just checked on them two seconds ago.  Its when its gets just a little too quiet and you know a disaster is about to befall your household.

Miss B had her "incident" about six months after Bucket was born.  She managed to get ahold of a tube of butt paste during a "nap".  Though I suppose you should call it B destroys a set of bedsheets in 5 minutes rather than "nap."  She mangaed to not only get it open but to squeeze out the entire contents onto her and her bed.  It wouldn't have been so bad but she decided to use it as a shampoo/body scrub.  It was one of the hardest substances I have ever encountered to get out of that kids hair.  That stuff stuck like glue, we ended up having to get special medical shampoo from a lady at daycare in order to finally get it all out. Fun times.

Bucket had his incident about a week ago.  I came upstairs to find him with a tube of cortisone. (You would have think we would have learned about keeping anything in tubes in the kid's bedroom after B's incident. I guess we just aren't that smart.) I had thought it wasn't a full tube since I couldn't find to much on him or his sheets.  Low and behold a day later we got to open their bedroom window and find it.  He had used the ointment to "wash" the window for us.  It was better than what Kira did, but still.

Ah the joys of kids!
