A while ago I was on my way to the church when I got a phone call from Heather. I figured it must be something urgent since she usually never calls me on Tuesday or Wednesday night when I'm doing church stuff. Anyway, Heather asked if I was in the neighborhood and, if I was, if I could stop by the house for a few minutes to watch the girls.
When I got home I found the girls in the bath and Heather vacuuming the girls' room. And lavender smelling powder everywhere. Turns out that Heather was making dinner and enjoying the fact that the A-Team was playing together relatively quietly. The surprising silence emanating from the girls' room, however, began to concern Heather and she went to go see what the girls were doing.
Apparently they were doing this:
I'm not sure how they even saw the baby powder situated high above their respective eye levels. I'm not sure how they got to the baby powder which should have been out of their reach. And I'm not sure how they opened the powder. What I am sure of is that they got the powder, opened it, poured it all out, covered themselves with said powder, and then when that wasn't enough, started squirting out some baby lotion. Ainsley looked pretty funny though.
Later that night I was visiting with some people and they all told me that bad things tend to happen when the kids go silent.

I am laughing so hard!!! That picture of Ainsley with a lotion-powder beard is awesome. They are too cute.
That's my golden rule: silence is never good. This morning I had a silent baby and went into the living room to discover she'd unlocked my iphone and was having a heyday with all of my apps.
Poor Heather. Those days make me want to have an empty room in which to shut Daphne while I just deal with whatever mayhem she's caused.
Just having fun and darn mom spoiled everything!!
What blows my mind is two things: (1) Afton was so excited to make pizza dough the other night and then had a panic attack when she got a few specs of flour on her hands. Yet apparently baby powder was fine? (2) Whenever it is silent, my first thought is still, "Oh good, they're playing nicely." When will I learn to not be so delusional?
hahahahaha!!! that is so funny, and probably only the first of many adventures of the A-team!
?Aren't kids fun??? This is why mommie needs to stay home--to clean up the messes made when children play quietly!
