FFF #11: Disorderly Conduct

Ahhh the memories this FFF brings! With triplets one has to ask when do we NOT have disorderly conduct in our house? There are 2 moments that came right to mind when I read sarah's choice for this week's Favorite Foto Friday. You know when it all of a sudden gets quiet in your house and you just KNOW that's not good? Both of my moments this Friday are moments like that- when you just say to yourself- "uh oh!" and then RUN! The first happened a few months ago- I entered the girls room (it was too quiet) and found this...This is their bookshelf. Not very sturdy and thank goodness tiny Emily got on the top shelf! Think bunk beds are in our future???

My second moment brought on my first call to Poison Control. I didn't realize you could have a powder party like this and stay quiet- but they did! Poor Maddie got puffed right in the face! This was Feb. 2007- look how little they are! Of course this was talc powder- and apparently it can be lethal if you inhale too much of it- sigh- then why make BABY powder out of it (yes- I'm still not over it!)? So after taking the pictures and video and letting them help clean it up, I find out all of this- so Poison Control I called. The nice man on the line was reassuring (and didn't laugh too hard at me as I told him my almost 3 year old triplets had a talc powder party). So the girls were fine, but our poor satellite box (just behind the semi-circle table) never recovered and had to be replaced! Here's a little FFF Video to go along for full effect! ENJOY!
