Willie came home from work early. I left him and the girls in the lounge and went to clean up the pig sty in the kitchen. I left Sienna's nappy off coz her wee butt is a bit red.
Maya comes into the kitchen: Mum, come and see what Sienna did! Me: (desperately hoping it's something cute and not the obvious) Oh cr*p, she's pooed on the floor. Oh cr*p, she's put her hand it it. So I throw her at Willie (who hasn't even noticed coz he's watching tv *rolls eyes at males*) so he can hold her while I clean her butt. And I take her bracelet off coz it has poop all over it. I give the bracelet to Maya and say "bubba, go and wash this in the bathroom for Mummy please." Then I start cleaning the floor. Two minutes later a bloodcurdling scream from the bathroom. Me (again desperately hoping I'm wrong) Oh cr*p she's dropped the flaming bracelet down the sink. The $300, custom made, irreplaceable bracelet my parents gave Sienna. So I go into the bathroom and unscrew the S bend under the sink. Miracle of miracles, the bracelet is there. Hooray! Breathe huge sigh of relief. Turn the tap on to wash the bracelet. Oh cr*p, didn't put the S bend back on. Water everywhere! And the funniest part of the whole thing? I am THE master of delegating blame, I inherited it from my dad, nothing is EVER my fault, I can always pawn it off on someone else. But this, this is TOTALLY my fault. I left Sienna's nappy off, I trusted a 4 year old with the $300 bracelet, and I turned the tap on without screwing the pipe back on. Way to go Emma, you are a LEGEND!     -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Haha Ginger was that a "snort"? Hehe
Emma I thought that you were going to say that you rescued the bracelet simply to drop it down again! Glad to see it had a (much) better ending ------------- |

Coz he had the job of holding the baby with the still-bare (and still half poopy) butt 
Glad to see you all had a giggle, sometimes you just have to laugh. And my night only got better - I put Maya to bed and on the way out of her room kicked my little toe on the edge of the door frame and now it is bent at a lovely angle  ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Emma thank you so much for that story. Made my morning. Just had one incident with poop and luckily it wasnt that bad. (and wasnt my fault either, Hubby didnt hear McKayla telling him she made a poopoo and then you better change her like in now or she will do it for you.)
Glad you find the bracelet though. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Heehee a comedy of errors. Except probably not quite so funny at the time!
After reading this thread last night, I went and dreamt about said bracelet. Except the name on it was Christopher -- Leish's Christopher! Heck I need a break from this place!!!

Am I the only one wondering just how difficult it'd be to get poop out of a bracelet?? What an evening, Emma - I'd have been tempted to run away! ------------- Andie |
