Oh No She Didn't...

Okay, so I've mentioned a few times that Lily is a troublemaker, right? Well today really takes the cake...

This morning, Steve and I were in the living room with Emmalee and Micah was in the family room watching tv with Lily (we thought). Suddenly, I heard the toilet lid shut, so I yelled to Micah, asking if he was in the bathroom. You see, we have to keep the bathroom door shut, because Lily loves to go play in there, and a bathroom is really not a good place for a baby to play in...

Emmalee went to check out the bathroom situation and yells "LILY!" I followed quickly behind to remove Lily from the bathroom, and found her standing next to the closed toilet, playing with the flush handle. I went to pick her up and discovered - that she was completely SOAKED from the waist down. Hmmmmmm - what do you think happened? I looked around, and discovered that there was water all around the toilet. Then, I look in the toilet, and there is very little water in the bowl. Why? The only logical answer I can come up with is that Lily had been standing or sitting IN the toilet bowl. Yes, she was that wet - not a dry spot from the waist down, and the diaper was soaked too.

The best part, or rather, most disgusting part of the story? Micah had peed in the toilet, and didn't shut the door when he left, which is how Lily got in there in the first place. The most fortunate part of the story? That she hadn't gone in face first. I've heard stories of kids drowning in toilet bowls. And the lesson we ALL had reminded to us today? KEEP THE BATHROOM DOOR SHUT!!!

I do, however, wish we had a video camera in the bathroom and could see exactly how it all went down...
