It pains me to write this but for some reason I like to share the gross stuff that Meatball gets herself into on a daily basis.
Today the 3 of us, Charlie, Annie and I, were at the park with some preschool friends. I mention that we were there with other people only because it makes me feel that much stupider.
Charlie had to go to the bathroom so I grabbed Annie and the 3 of us ran into the restroom. Why I didn't just ask someone to keep an eye on her is beyond me. You'd think I'd have learned by now. I just always feel bad because she's such a handful I don't want to burden anyone with the joy that is Miss Meatball these days.
So I set Annie down outside the stall and went in with Charlie because he couldn't quite reach to pee into the adult sized potty. Keep in mind when a 3-year old has to pee there's a very serious sense of urgency. I didn't exactly have time to lecture Annie on staying put. He never just kind of has to pee, it's more like now or I hope you brought a change of shorts in that purse of yours.
So as I'm dangling Charlie over the potty trying to keep both of us from really touching anything I hear splashing.
I know that this can only mean 1 thing.
I run to the other stall thinking I'd see Annie splashing in the toilet like she's been know to do. No no. She turned it up a notch.
She had wet toilet paper that she had taken out of the unflushed potty IN HER MOUTH!
This was by far the most disgusting thing I've ever witnessed and I have a pretty high tolerance for disgusting (I've been know to clean up other people's puke and not be phased, you're welcome Krusty).
After that we called it a day, headed home, and took a bath in bleach. OK, there was no bleach, but there was a very, very soapy bath for the Meatball'inator. I feel like I could use one too just for having to be around her. Barf.

If it was just pee on that unflushed toilet, at least pee is supposedly cleaner and full of LESS bacteria than our spit! Just another joy of parenting. Jeanette, I'm very happy you share these stories by the way!!
Oh yes, to clarify, it was "just pee". Someone else's pee though. Come on, that's still really, really gross right?
Lisa, you're not making me feel better, I know you're trying but it's just not going to work.
I read these posts and keep thinking, 'oh, she and Emma should be BEST friends!!" LOL, not sure if the world is ready for the two of the together though!!!
Wow - that even grossed Krusty out!
OMG, I'm crying laughing. Dan is gagging beside me.
Ok, so I've finally stopped laughing (not really but I'm trying to be nice) and just imagining this in my head and the look on your face. Needless to say, I LOVE your stories and how human you all are.
Oh Jeannette...that sucks...there is no other way to put it. The joys of parenting! :)
All I was saying Jeanette is that it could've been worse...could've been a ball of spit on the floor!!
Ok, I'll stop now...but really, I AM happy you share these stories!
