These are stories that are too long to fit on the sidebar. Our daughter is such a ham, and oh, how I wish she didn't talk so clearly sometimes... or get in so much trouble...
1) The Friday before Christmas, we went to my dad's office to see Santa Claus. My mom took Abby to the potty and a rather large woman walked in (think around 350 lbs.). Abby started asking, "Mammaw, where'd the big mama go? I wanna see the big mama. Where's the big mama? Did the big mama go in that potty?" They were in the middle of washing their hands-mom said she's never been in such a hurry to dry her hands! :)
2)Tonight I was putting Caleb to bed and Abby was happily playing in her room. Chuck was downstairs doing the trash. All of the sudden, I hear Abby saying, "Daddy, I found my medicine, I found my medicine!!!" I remembered that we had put some Hydrogen Peroxide on the sink in her bathroom to use after her bath (she has one ear that is stopped up with ear wax, and the doctor told us that that would help loosen it.) I burped Caleb and put him down as quickly as I could, and came out into the hallway. The smell of peroxide was unmistakalbe. I said, "Abby?" No answer. "Abby" Still no answer (I began to have horrible images of Abby passed out somewhere after drinking a bottle of peroxide-like it could have taken effect in 30 seconds...) "Abby, where are you?" I heard Chuck say, "She's in here."
I walk in and said, "Did she get the peroxide?" Chuck said, "Nope." and held up her bottle of lip gloss. She had found her Dora lip gloss, unscrewed the lid and tried to use the wand of the lip gloss to "help her ear because it hurt". Thankfully she did not damage anything. Chuck was using the peroxide to try to clean out her ear. Does anyone have an extra set of eyes or two that I can use, because apparently you have to watch them 150% of the time... :)
3) Out at my mom's house and Abby is playing with a pair of nail clippers and a nail file she had found laying on the table. (The child can make a game out of anything...) She was playing mommy and baby. My mom hears, "Mammaw, I need your help." Care to guess what she had done? She had dropped the nail clippers down my brother's amplifier! You could hear them clinging around in there, but because of the way the amp. is made, there was no way to get them back out of the hole. My brother got home and had to unscrew the entire bottom of the amp. to get them out.
