My toddler is driving me crazy!

I'm sure you all remember my desitin rant about a month or two ago...

Well, she's done it again.  Not Desitin (I threw it all out of my 
house, of course), but baby powder.  Yes, Pam, powder. ;)

I was relaxing in the living room, and I hear Ginger (who's in quiet 
time) yelling at me, "Mommy!  Mommy, come here and get me down!"  
That's not a good sign, because anywhere she's allowed to be is easy 
to get down from.  I walk in her room, and she's climbed up her 
bookcase to the top of her changing table/dresser, gotten the "little 
powder" (a sample size, thank goodness... someone was watching over 
me there), and poured it all over herself.  And then, of course, she 
couldn't get down.

I started off yelling, but ended up laughing, cuz my husband's face 
was so sympathetic that my anger just went away really fast.  I still 
have to clean it up, though... it's not REALLY funny yet.  However, 
this time, we got a (digital) picture.  If you'd like to see Ginger 
in all her white glory (it looks like that cell phone service 
commercial where the babysitter 'floured' the kids), let me know and 
I'll send you a copy.

Jen (who knows that the next time she does this, it's going to be the 
contents of her diapers... it's only logical)
