Yes, the Granddaughter (and Mommy) are home from the very long two-week vacation to Ohio! Granny picked them up from the airport late Tuesday night, was greeted with hugs and kisses from the Daughter and the Granddaughter's face lit up with joy and the feet started kicking to be rescued from the dreaded carseat. (Who can say "no" to those adorable brown eyes and chubby, edible cheeks??)
Almost immediately, the Daughter wants to spend the weekend with her Girlfriend - leave on Friday, home on Monday. (Mind you, the same girlfriend who just spent two weeks in Ohio with her ...); but being the GREAT mommy that I am - I drove her the two hours north and drove two hours home (with the Granddaughter)!
Yep, Gramps and Granny have had the Granddaughter all weekend - and we are doing what Grandparents do ... Pizza, Beer and Dodger Baseball on Friday night (she insisted!) ... again, Pizza, Beer and Dodger Baseball - with just a few bites of Frozen Peach Yogurt on Saturday night (again, HER choice!)... and today (Sunday) we are going to play in her pool, watch Dodger Baseball - drink a few bottles ...
... and spend THREE hours cleaning the crib, baby bedding and carpet in the nursery! You see, when Granny woke up this morning - she checked on the Granddaughter sitting and playing so peacefully in her crib - went to the kitchen to start her cereal/fruit and when I came back ...
The Granddaughter had removed her diaper and threw it onto the light tan carpet - BUT not before she had removed the "dirty" contents and smeared it all over her sheets, the crib bumper, stuffed animals and not to mention her hair, neck, fingers and toes ... remember people, this is a baby with rolls and rolls and more rolls!
It's time for the Daughter to come home, NOW!!

Ewww, I remember when my son did that once....not pretty.
Uh-oh, they're not all cuteness and apple cheeks are they? Yuck!
Ha. better you than me is all I got to say. I was afraid that you were doing to say that after all the beer and pizza she woke up in a pile of her own vomit, but poo is just much worse.
Ahhhh early fingerpainting. I remember those days.
*shudders*
You guys are awesome.
Can you believe that with 4 babies, I never had that experience? However, our firstborn did have a bit of trouble with the potty training and pooped in hidden places around the living room one night... which we found several hours later by smell... I no longer recommend multi-toned brown carpeting!
PS: Lingerie bags with zippers are excellent for toys in the dishwasher, esp. when you need to sanitize them thoroughly!
