How to Ruin a Perfectly Good Shower

1.  Send husband off to present his thesis at the Pentagon (see post below).

2.  Get two-year old out of bed.

3.  Turn on TV and hope that said two-year old would watch something (even though she never has).

4.  Hop in the shower.

5.  Entertain two-year old by poking head out of shower every now and then to make sure that the Neosporin is not being used as toothpaste.

6.  Just as you are about to finish, have two-year old remove PJ's and diaper on their own, yell 'I naked Mama', and climb into shower with you.

7.  Oh yeah, make sure that the diaper has been soiled so that when two-year old climbs in with you they are sure to smear feces on the edge of the tub and bring a friend with them.

Ahh... it's going to be a long couple of days.

Oh how we Moms can't wait for the day we can just take a shower in peace. Just remember if you were at my house the smoke alarm would have been going off as well....

Oh yes, I can see it all! If life were only devoted to playing and full time attention k would be a dream. Such a creative imaginative little one!
Wish we were closer so she could visit us (not in the shower though).
E will be back soon!
Our only excitement today is it is raining a little.
