Darn her...

I was separating out some baby clothes & folding them....I noticed that Alexandra was being VERY quiet and that can only mean trouble. So I got up to go & look for her.......she was only out of might sight for less than 5 minutes- what could she have possibly done?

I go around the corner and see her crouched down on the floor next to my computer desk. She says, "look mama, pretty." I looked down at her feet & noticed that they were white.....all her toes were white & my floor underneath....it confused me at first. Then I saw what it was.

Little Miss Alexandra had painted her TOES & I mean TOES ( not just toenails) with WHITE-OUT!! Needless to say, I completely freaked out...I looked at her & said mommy doesn't know what to do.. as I was picking her up. She said "what, you no know what to do". So who do I call??? Yes....you are right.........POISON CONTROL!
I was not sure if there was some chemical in the white-out that would burn my baby girls skin. So I didn't know whether to put her in water or vinegar- freaked out.......I know I am a total idiot. SO i just put her feet in the tub & started scrubbing. Poison Control told me she would be fine. It should come off with nail polish remover blah blah blah. Only bad if inhaled or ingested. So I was relieved but pissed at her! So happy she was fine, pissed her toes were white and my floor was white. The nail polish remover did not work either. So I put her on toe painting restriction. She loves to get her toes painted. So she has 1 week of no new toe paint.

I am thinking she has had her eye on that white out for a while. I did not even know it was up there. I guess that I am going to have to Ally proof my house again! I must have started to slack.




Trying to remove it in the tub



This is all I could get off. The rest will have to sluff off on its own. It already is almost gone after her baths & being in the pool.
