Pink

So Baxter peed on the edge of my tree skirt. It is red felt/wool and white with stars.

Karl had said he thought Baxter needed to go out. I waited too long. Really it was maybe 2 Minute later. So I tossed it in the wash. With other clothes. On delicate. With a color catcher. Bad move.

Josh has pink Dino jammies now. Sydney has a pink Long Sleeve shirt, but she needs a new white one. I have a pink tree skirt. You could ask why those things were in the machine. I wish I had!

I tried pulling the color out with a dye remover. Nothing changed for the better. I think I only made things worse. Good thing tree skirts go on clearance soon!!

Lesson learned

I was in josh's room building a track for him and tossed some extra train track into the bin and missed

Josh- "donn frow!"
Me "sorry Josh, you are right, mom shouldn' throw."
Josh- "sorry mom"

I know better

I know that a quiet baby usually means a bad baby, but today I ignored that useful knowledge and was working on my computer and listening to my Son playing I thought with trains and toys. He headed downstairs and I followed. His face and hands had marker all over them so I rushed upstairs to find marker and crayon all over the floor, walls, slide, and desk. He had tagged everything!!



So after some scrubbing- crayons is washable when it is fresh only, I got up most of the damage then headed off to
Find the culprit and toss him in the wash. He tinted the water blue when he got in the tub. After a quick trim of his hair on the back of his neck, with a sobbing mess, I hosed him and the tub down, dried him off and went to get a diaper. He peed on the floor while I was gone. I am officially off duty!! Except I still need to paint a wall and windowsill. Rats!! Naptime in one hour!








Note the blue around his lips. Even his belly button was blue!
