Last night was pizza night so the kids got to eat down stairs and watch a movie while Melinda and I watched a show upstairs in the living room.
We were upstairs for about an hour when Shae comes up with her baby doll bowl full of water and she was drinking it using a baby doll spoon. Melinda called Shaun up to ask him why he would let Shae get water from the sink because she could burn herself if the water was hot. Melinda also mentioned to Shaun Shae could have been playing in the toilet. I chimed in asking why Shae would get water from the toilet and not the sink.
Here is the dialog that then took place between Melinda and Shae:
Melinda : “Did you get the water from the sink”?
Shae: “Noooooo”
Melinda: “Did you get the water from the toilet”?
Shae: “Yessssss” – as she was saying yes she was spooning water into her mouth.
My first response to the whole situation was NO WAY did she get water from the toilet so I went downstairs to investigate. I noticed the sink was bone dry so I looked at the toilet and noticed the seat was soaked and then realized my baby girl drunk toilet water.
So I go back upstairs and confirm she indeed was drinking toilet water. All I can say is thank God the toilet water was clean otherwise this story would not be as funny as it was. Melinda then noticed Shae’s sweatshirt was soaked and Melinda instantly got grossed out and put Shae in the shower with her.
It is me or is it weird that the thing that grossed Melinda out was a sweatshirt wet by toilet water and not the fact that Shae was drinking toilet water. So Shae got a shower and brushed her teeth. While writing this post I am still laughing that she was drinking toilet water and Shaun was in the room with her and never realized what was going on. Shae could have drunk 10 baby bowls of toilet water for all we know.
Shae is the first of our three kids to ever play in the toilet. All I know is she wasn’t thirty at bed time. Guess we better keep the bathroom doors closed from now on.
