An Un-Fairy Tale

Today's saga begins in a far far away land an hour from home, where a little girl named Katelynn thought it would be interesting to remove her diaper while in her Nanna's crib, then poop, then play in the poop. The little girl saw a new and angry side of her Nanna and was lectured at length. The little girl received a bath. Then the Nanna promptly brought her home to her mommy.

At home, the little girl grew tired of her diaper and stripped it off. She asked to go to the potty and nothing happened after two seconds, so she wanted to get off the potty. Then she asked to use another potty two minutes later and after two seconds nothing happened, so she wanted to get off the potty. By this time the mommy thought the little girl was full of it. Little did the mommy know, she was - literally.

The little girl asked to use the potty again and headed to the upstairs potty. The mommy figured she had time since the first two times were false alarms so she quickly gathered some laundry. On the way up the stairs, she found a large poop on the stairs. Then she discovered another poop on the bathroom floor. The little girl had not ever made it to the potty. But she did seem to know this time that she should not under any circumstances touch anything.

The mommy began the extensive clean up process. First she cleaned the little girl as best as possible. Then she cleaned the mess on the tile floor. Then she started to go to work on the stairs. She put one paper towel full of poop in the downstairs potty. While she finished cleaning the stain on the carpet, the downstairs toilet overflowed.

The mommy then found the overflow mess all over the hallway floor and began to clean it up. The little girl ran over naked shouting "Mommy silly! Mommy silly!" and walked in the watery mess.

Finally all the messes were cleaned and the little girl went into the bath. She got in trouble for creating another flood by jumping up and down. She was crying because she got in trouble, which caused her to beg for her pacifier. Since the mommy did not give it to her, she gagged herself on the changing table and threw up.

Katelynn was returned to the bath, where she received a cold dousing of water and a quick shampoo. The exhausted mommy was now drenched in sweat from all the events. She stuck the pacifier in the little girl's mouth and promptly put her to bed.

  2. She certainly "spread the wealth" around today. I think Obama said something about doing that too......

  3. Awesome. You make it sound so fun and adventurous. I can't wait. Makes me think people who live in dirt huts have one up on us. No worrying about the carpet or overflowing toilets.

  5. I'm aching with you. Anna did that several times when I was really really pregnant with Sarah. The only thing that would make your day worse would be either morning sickness or a huge baby belly. Baby wipes are really good at cleaning up those kind of carpet messes. That kiddo gives you a run for your money!

  7. I am so scared of karma now – as I stifled my laughter as much as possible (because I’m at work) . . . .
    At least you’ll have someone to laugh at a year from now when this is past you and I’m in the trenches. :-)
