Lotion, Lotion, Lotion

























Remember when I posted about Sunscreen? Now here is a post about lotion.  Addie decided that her rocking horse was feeling a little dried out, so she applied about 1/2 of a jar of Cetaphil Cream to his fur to keep him moist. It was also all over her too, but I bathed her before I remembered to take a picture.

You are probably wondering where her Mother was during all of this, right? Well, I was out thanking a neighbor for bringing me a much needed dinner, because I had just had a baby 2 weeks earlier. Not to mention that I was already on the verge of having a metal breakdown, because I couldn't get everything done, and my house looked like a tornado had gone through it! Yep, that is when I found my sweet Addie, right after I shut the front door. She was covered in lotion, and I wanted to cry. Instead, I took a picture and now today I can almost laugh about it. I know, give me a few more months or even years and this will be hilarious. Maybe even someday I will want this day back, it will probably be when Addie is gone having little lotion problems of her own.

Oh she is so cute! How could you ever get mad at such a sweet little face? I have found that the third child is the one to always keep you on your toes. ;)

That is too funny Lainee! What a doll. I would have done the same thing. Taken a picture and then cried. Ahhhh...newborn land. Nothin' like it!

Addie is simply adorable and I have to agree that the horse was looking a little dry. :)

I didn't just have the baby, but know that you're in good company. My kids make me almost want to cry on a pretty regular basis. Hope you're doing better today!

Ohhhhhhh I think I would have cried too!! There is nothing like that over whelming-can't get anything done- feeling, and then turning around to find more messes to clean up! I am so sorry! What a mess! She has probably watched you put lotion on Carlee...and just had to try it our for herself! But, she looks so innocent in that picture!! Send her to my house! It sounds like Sadie and her need to have a fun play date together...and you need time to relax and hold that sweet baby!
