Diaper Cream

I was on the phone today with my mom, and then turned around and called my sister-in-law. While I was leaving a message for my sister-in-law, Addison came into the room and had white all over her face and legs. With her cute little voice saying "look Mommy", I couldn't help but pause during the message that I was leaving, and stare shockingly at her. At first I couldn't figure out why she was white all over, but when I realized that it was some sort of cream I couln't help but chuckle. As soon as I finished leaving the message, Addison took off back down the hall and into her room. I followed her and found her sitting in the middle of her room, on a changing pad (the one that she pulled off the changing table), along with a tube of diaper cream and a few other items that she got from the changing table. She just sat there with this proud look on her face. She aparently had taken her potty chair from the bathroom and carried it to her room to use as a stepstool to get to the top of the changing table. As I scaned the room to see what other items she painted with the diaper cream, I didn't see any. So, I asked her what else she had painted and she replied with once again, "look Mommy" as she pointed to the front of the dresser and her potty chair. Sure enough they too were painted with diaper cream. I couldn't help but laugh as I cleaned everything up. She was very proud of what she did, and I am not sure if she thought that she was using lotion or make-up, but she looked cute with a white face!

That is awesome! I remember the first time Reese put diaper cream all over one of her baby doll's bum. It was right after Quincy was born, so I thought it was really cute.
The first time. Not so much the third and fourth.

I love diaper cream messes. Just kidding. You were so gracious, what a great mom you are. One time, my kids flicked mentholatum all over the clean laundry. It was hard to get out of cloth and fabic as it was petroleum based. I was not so gracious. So watch out for that one!
