The reason Claire's skin is so soft today...

Tonight while I was at rehearsal, Jason got the kids all ready for bed. He promised them that if they got their pajamas on and read their bedtime stories, they could watch a couple of songs on American Idol before bed. Claire decided she would rather chase Tucker around, so while Josh and Jason watched the show, she herded Tucker into the guest room and closed the door. After a couple of songs, Jason noticed that it had gotten pretty quiet in the guest room, so he opened the door to see what was going on. He found Claire sitting on the bed in a pile of clean, unfolded laundry, gouging handfuls of Aquaphor out of the container and wiping it into her hair. He pulled her off the bed and made her stand in the hall and not touch anything while he hunted around for the camera, then deleted some pictures because the memory card was full.

Clearly he had his priorities in order.




Jason spent half an hour trying to wash the waterproof gel out of her hair, while poor Wyatt was screaming for attention in his bassinet and Josh was making some random messes around the house because he knew he could get away with it for awhile. Tonight Claire is sleeping with a towel on her pillow. It will probably take a few more washes with dish soap to get all that greasy gel out of her hair! I'm happy I wasn't there at the time, but at least I get to laugh at the pictures!!!

haha :)

awww, poor Jason
