Finger Nail Polish

Yesterday, was definately a trying day for all of us. Elly only napped for about an hour yesterday as her schedule is still a little off. So I was trying very hard to keep her in a good mood until night time. Harry ran to Kwik Trip to get milk and so I decided that it would be a good time to do Elly's toenails and keep her occupied. As we are coming out of the bathroom into the dining room/kitchen area she was klinking the two bottles of polish together when all of a sudden one broke open. All over the kitchen floor, dining room chairs, stools and Elly. Well bright pink is a little hard to decipher whether or not it is blood or nail polish. So I got all the broken pieces out of her hands around from her feet and got her up to the sink to start washing her hands. But before we started to move towards the sink the nervousness of the situation took over and Elly wet her pants. So another mess on our hands. As Elly was crying perfusely on the stool at the sink with wet pants on, I was trying to clean the floor as fast as I could before it dried. When Harry walked in, all I could say was "don't get mad right now....just start helping". After 45 minutes of clean up and lots of elbow grease on the floor we were able to get most of the polish off everything. There was not enough nail polish remover to go around so I still have hot pink hands but otherwise we are all better. WOW - never a dull moment in the Young household.
