Since it's bedtime, I was being a good mommy by taking Vanessa up to her bed. But, as we passed the kids' bathroom upstairs, Jeff showed us that he had other ideas about going to bed. His idea? Taking some Trix yogurt (don't know where or how he got it, since the package is way up high in the refrigerator; must've stashed it earlier) and smearing the entire frontside of his body.
Fun times.
Too bad I didn't have my camera or I would;ve taken a picture. Who knows how much emotional blackmail a parent can inflict by threateningly waving a photo of a half naked toddler smeared with pink yogurt? I'm kidding!
The clean-up of the lil' monkey was quick and easy...the bathroom? Well, I'm so not going to deal with it right now. Just more stains to decorate an already stained bathroom carpet. By the way, whose bright idea was it to put carpet in the kids' bathroom anyway when we built the house? Hmm, yep. My finger's pointing at Scott, lol!
Anyway, now I'm sitting in Vanessa's bedroom, watching an episode of The Backyardigans and scratching my head in confusion. The episode is based on an adventure in Hawaii, but what the heck does "Huka Pele!" mean? 'Cause y'know, I'm from Hawaii? And I think I'd remember learning to yell "Huka Pele!" everytime I was angry. But, I don't. So, I'm just going to accept that the creators just made it up.
Also, if it's a Hawaiian-themed adventure, why are The Backyardigans singing songs with Indian (as in from India) and polka tunes?
Weird.
