Oh, Gracie!

So last night, I was wiped out. Jason didn't get home until almost 9:00 and days are always longer when my helpmate isn't home to help.
About 2 minutes before I was going to go to bed, Gracie came into the living room and told me she made a mess.
She had been playing with her puzzles in her room, so I figured she meant that she had mixed up all the pieces again.
Oh, if it could've been that easy.
I was horrified when I walked in to the room to find this:











As you can see, she scattered baby powder all over almost every square inch and possession in that room.
It took Jason and I over 30 minutes to clean it all up. She was in her crib watching us the whole time and after getting punished and watching us clean it up the whole time, I think she understood that she did wrong.
Here's her pathetic little sad face...

And for the record, I was too mad to take these pictures, but Daddy thought it was pretty funny and made sure to capture them. I'm glad he did.
And another thing, can you get high off of huffing baby powder? Seriously..... We were both getting light headed in there! We opened the window and turned on the fan, but we still didn't let Gracie sleep in there. You know, since my middle name is Paranoid and all...

I remember doing that as a child. . .My mother is a saint!

Actually, inhaling baby powder can be bad for your lungs, specifically if you have asthma. I vote that making her sleep elsewhere was a good call.
