Get up here now!

We are about to move to Texas. Our time in Alaska is up and the military is moving us down South.

We are staying in a hotel as our household goods are on their way to TX. Now, at home we have things 'Ben' proof. He's only allowed into a few rooms where it's safe and I can hear him if I can't see him. Well, at a hotel it's a bit more difficult. STILL there are rooms he isn't allowed into. The bathroom and our room are two (we're in a two bedroom suite).

He can go into Kayla and his room, the family room, and kitchen. We can't see Kayla's room, but it's 'Ben' proof. Sooooooo I thought.

Ben was up stairs playing with Kayla (most of the toys are up there). They were laughing and then it was quiet. After not hearing them for a few minutes, DH went up to check on them..... all I heard was 'Oh my God'. Not in a panicked voice, just a holy cow kind of a voice. He calls for me to come up there.

I round the corner and he is holding Ben, who is covered in white stuff..... every hair on his head, down to every toe on his feet. I look in the room and..... oh boy! As it turns out, DH put the brand new tube of Desitin (diaper rash cream) in Ben's bag. Ben found it (there isn't supposed to be anything but clothes and toys in that room!), tore the box open, got the tube open and then wiped it all.over.the.room. The floor length mirror, the carpet, the bedding, the furniture, his sister.... it was every where!

Ben and Kayla went straight into the bath and I got to work on the room. I got every last bit of it up, other than the carpet. I had to go rent a carpet shampooer to get it cleaned up. It comes out, but it is a pain!!

I wish I had gotten a picture of him and the room..... but after all, it was just another day with Ben.

  1. Kayla did a good job of stopping her brother. Not.
