A Little Lady Mess

Usually, Little Lady's crib is a corner of her room a good distance away from the window, shelves, and changing table. This past weekend, though, we rearranged it to be a guest room for my family. When they left on Sunday we were all so tired we decided we would wait until nap time to move it back - BIG mistake! About fifteen minutes after laying Little Lady down we heard some unexpected noises. Husbandie went upstairs to check and found this...

it's hard to see but her diaper is covered in about an
inch of butt paste

I'm glad he was the one who found her because he immediatly yelled for me to bring the camera - I would have probably just yelled. 


Butt Paste does not clean up very easily. It took quite a bit of scrubbing to get it off the crib and the window. Little Lady also took a bit of scrubbing; she had two baths yesterday and her hair is still a little on the crazy side.


Husbandie teases me all the time about not screwing lids all the way back on - I think I may have finally learned my lesson.

    Oh my gosh, this happened to me yesterday too! No joke! Except my daughter dragged her little chair over to her dresser and climbed up to get it down. We just moved her into a toddler bed since she climbs out of her crib so we obviously need to make some adjustments. Haha! They are sooooo smart!

      Ha! That is too funny! I hope she didn't leave with too big of a mess - I sure to wish they'd use their smarts for more constructive things :)

    I'm the same about not screwing lids on completely. She does look adorable and to some degree that's what being a kid is about right? Getting into messes.

A Little Red Cardboard Barn

We've finished our farm unit and are moving on to a new theme tomorrow - but before we do I wanted share the barn we made. The wooden farm animals came with a beautiful handmade ark that we gave Big Buddy for Christmas a couple years ago.  I would someday love to have a wood barn but it's currently not in the budget. So in the mean time we decided to improvise and make our own.  I stumbled upon this perfectly sized milk box (4 gallons per box) while subbing and thought it would be sturdy enough to handle play. Hubandie and the boys used an x-acto knife and wood glue to build a barn shape. to get the doors to fold out hubandie used an x-acto knife and scored the inside of the cardboard We then painted with a basic primer and outlined a window and a door with painters tape. cardboard is very porous so priming is a must if you want decent coverage Big Buddy however insisted that we add more windows so it...

Preschool Syllabus: Dr. Seuss

Normally I'd do a Dr. Seuss unit in March around his birthday. We had to do one now though because on Saturday Big Buddy and I going on a date to a  Dr. Seuss exhibit . The exhibit is only at the museum until January and I'm afraid if we don't go now we might not get the chance. We are of course reading lots of Dr. Seuss's books. A great advatage to studying Dr. Seuss in November rather than March is that all his books were available at the library. I also found a great children's biography which is perfect for preschoolers. Pebble First Biographies: Dr. Seuss  We've read it a couple times and Big Buddy loves reciting all the facts he's learned WRITING CENTER ADDITIONS big buddy's name in sand paper letters, coloring pages  & mazes from seussville.com skills practiced: fine motor, letter recognition, creativity,  reading comprehension LEARNING "TRAYS" -   I rotate these, setting out about four a day from which the boy...

Jack-O-Lanterns on the Fridge

Last fall I saw the idea for refrigerator pumpkins with face pieces in FamilyFun Magazine  and have been anxious to recreate them ever since. It was pretty quick and easy and since the only thing we didn't have on hand was magnetic sheets ($1.50 with coupon at Joann's) it was also very cheap. my supplies: magnetic sheets, orange & black construction paper, white pen, tacky glue *i know they have self adhesive sheets but my Joann's didn't carry them   glued (very messily) and ready to cut Both the boys were quite enthused when they discovered them after rest time :) Hopefully it will keep them entertained until we carve real pumpkins.
