Cherry Icee


I took the boys to Target yesterday and let E get an Icee. By the time I got home, Max was totally asleep in his car seat so I decided to unload the car while he was still sleeping. By the time I got around to the other side of the van, I hear E say, "don't come over here." Which means that E did something wrong and will probably be in big trouble. I take one look at Max and find out why. E had blown cherry icee all over his sleeping brother's face! I had to take Max in, wake him up, and wipe him down (his least favorite thing ever). I wiped and wiped and the stupid stuff does not come off. Max seriously looks like he has leprosy! There are little red dots and splotches all over his face and it doesn't matter what I do, they're permanently on his head! I don't think "How to get cherry icee stain off your child's forehead" is in the "Mother Handbook."

This is why you should ALWAYS buy mountain dew slushies. They would never stain your baby. Duh. :)

I was hoping that you would put a picture of Max on the blog. It would be great blackmail for him to use against his big brother, at a future date.

By the way I sent that picture of E to Ryan from the 4th. Hopefully, he got it to you.
