More Adventures in Napping
Okay. We survived the bead up the nose,the goldfish crackers crunched in the bed, the CONSTANT changing of clothes, and even the "I need to wear my jammies at nap time". But, this tops everything else. Last Saturday in between sessions of General Conference, Madelynne was supposed to be taking a nap. Everything was quiet in her room and we assumed (can you believe it?) that Madelynne was napping. I was working on some Spring Cleaning projects and as I passed Madelynne's room I caught a HUGE whiff of Vick's Baby Rub smell. I opened her door and there she was COVERED in Vick's Baby Rub! She has had a cold and the medicine got left in the top drawer of her dresser by accident. Not only was Madelynne's face and body covered in Vick's, but her bed, the crib, the carpet, the inside of her dresser drawers and the clothes in them, and just about anything else she managed to get her little hands on. Needless to say it produced a whole new level of spring cleaning for the mommy. Apparently, Madelynne felt like I was slacking and needed a little push in the right direction. Three loads of laundry, a scrub down of the entire room and a carpet cleaning later, Madelynne was in BIG TROUBLE. She had to sit in time out for a long time. However, this all said Madelynne does manage to take naps without a hitch-sometimes. The picture below is the proof.

Well this one is going down in my book of "All Time Worst Things Your Kids Could Do To You". I'll refer back to it the next time my kids do something horrible and realize that someone else had it worse than me. :) Hang in there!
oh wow... I'm so sorry! I had one of those moments the other day when Lincoln and Gracie smeared glitter lip gloss and nail polish all over our couch cushions! I think yours is worse!
Mom told me about this latest napping "adventure"- sorry!! That sounds awful. It is hard to believe she did that when she looks so adorable and innocent in this picture....
WOW! Just what every expecting mother needs. To make one ask oneself, can I handle this and another? Just think, it made for a funny blog! We had the same thing happen with desitin...during naptime. The only bummer is, desitin is made to REPEL water. It took a while to clean out.
Ok....you are asking for it. My boys were the champions of not taking naps and getting into things very quietly. One time it was a poopy diaper that was all over everything. Doug got called home on that one.
