Oh No!! What is in your hair??!




I thought it was difficult finding a moment to take a shower when Moroni was a baby, but now that Moroni is a toddler it is practically impossible. The week before Easter I put Moroni in front of the TV (our frequent babysitter) and thought that Sesame Street could hold him down for 15 minutes while I took a shower. I jumped in and out of the shower as fast as I could and rushed out to check on him before doing my hair. I soon found out that I would not be doing my hair but his...he was covered in Vaseline. Head to toe was a greasy nasty mess.

For a fraction of a second I contemplated just changing his clothes and rushing out the door so we wouldn't be late for playgroup, but of course I had to give him a bath first. I washed his hair and then washed it again and again and again...learning very quickly that Vaseline does NOT come out of hair no matter what you do and no matter what kind of soap or cleaner you try. So, I combed out the larger chunks and got him ready to go.
When we got back I gave in and just cut all his hair off...afterall he looks better without Vaseline.
