Its A Jungle

Today I made a decision to spend some time with my girls.

That meant my time on here was

very limited.

The amount of time I spend on here is

ridiculous. It's terrible.

Both of them have not been feeling very well.

It all started Friday night after they went

to bed.

That is when the coughing began.

As our day had begun it dawned on me that I had told my

oldest that we would need to replace batteries in

some toys.

What was I thinking!

With dead batteries it was a bit more

quite.

It began with the Lion. When he rolls he makes a noise.

Well, I found that changing the batteries did not solve that.

Next was Tiger.

I told her we needed to fix his belly.

Check that off the list.

My trustworthy assistant hard at work!

Next!

Oh her.

She has been so quite.

I do not recall seeing instructions for

open and close on the real ones.

If there are then I am missing something.

I got her back on the road.

It did not take long for me to want to

pop out a battery or two from her.

I quickly switched her to

'try' mode.

That setting she at least took a break from crying.

While I was crossing stuff off my to do list I had a

spot on the carpet.

I had contemplated cutting the spot off.

Thought that it would probably be best to

try to get it off/out with a little effort

first before doing something drastic.

It had a cherry smell to it. Candy? Cough drop?

It was coming out.

Surely I wasn't going to suck on it

until it dissolved. UCK!

Next best thing was a wet paper towel with

hot/warm water.

For back up I used a hair dryer.

I got most of it out until my youngest

became curious as to what

I was doing.

In between all the fussing, meals and checking off a few

minor things we got to play a little bit and read.
