1. Freak out because you find your child covered from head to toe in a thick layer of vaseline.
2. Bathe said child in an attempt to remove vaseline.
3. Realize that your child's hair is not still wet, it is a giant grease ball.
4. Use good ol' Google to find this solution:
5. Coat child's hair with olive oil (thank you, Costco, for the ample supply).
6. Massage into hair.
7. Add liquid dish soap to the mix.
(Isn't the black eye precious?)
8. Rub. I'd say lather, but it doesn't really. Play a little. It's unlike any texture you've ever felt.
9. Rinse. Watch the bath water fill immediately with petroleum clouds.
I'll have to repeat the process again tomorrow, but for now her hair is MUCH better.
I'm not so sure about the carpets, we'll have to see how those look in the morning when they've had a chance to dry a bit (substituted rubbing alcohol for the olive oil on those).
Sheesh. This kid...

so are you going to tell the story of how that all happened, or what? =) I can't believe she's that big already. HUGE!
