The Artist Has Created Again


I will spare you all the details on Avery's last "Masterpiece"..... but here's what happened.
She was her room having a "nap" (or so I thought). She'd been in there about 1 1/2 hours and I could hear her just playing in there. I figured she wasn't going to go to sleep so she could get up. I was actually laying in my bed during naptime
(note to self... don't take a nap if your kids could for ANY reason still be awake)
So I was laying in my bed and I called for her to come in my room.. I hear her say.. OK mommy in her cute little voice, then one of my "favorite things about being a mom" moments was about to happen... you know, when she opens my door with wide open arms and says "hi mommy!"... This time is was not so much a favorite moment.
She opens my door and says "what mommy?" as cute as she possibly could. I look at her and see she had taken her pants off, and then I noticed the "Artwork... Series 1"... She had POOP, yes POOP all over her arms and legs. I jumped out of bed to go to her room to the pleasant aroma that was sure to be there. I couldn't see any poop anywhere, but I knew better than that. I said, "Avery, is there any poop in your room?" She points to her wall by her flower box and says, "wall mommy". Sure enough, there it was in all it's glory... "Artwork.. Series 2". As gross as it was, how can you get mad? She was so cute and completely naive that what she just did was about the most disgusting thing imaginable. So, I just gave her a rag and had her help me clean it up. When the wall was all clean and she was sortof washed off, I said, "Avery, do you want to get in the tub?" In her sweet little voice, she said, "K mommy" and ran to my room ready for tub time. In the tub, I was trying to see if she understood what had happened, and all she could say was, "Avee do it".
So, Yes, once again... "Avee do it" is yet another fun post to add to my blog!
