Tubby Time up in Flames!

As we rushed to prepare Will's tubby before Lost came on tonight, our night became a disaster! Jordan had to type up some reviews for his job, so I was to prepare Will's tubby and give him a bath within 20 minutes before the beginning of our show. I just sanitized our counters and didn't want to lay Will's towels down yet on the somewhat wet counters, so I left all of the tubby stuff piled up in his tubby and put it on our stove top while I quick ran to the bathroom. On my way back, the kitchen was full of smoke and there was an awful odor in the room! I noticed that the hot light was on underneath where Will's tubby was! It was on fire! I quickly removed it and threw it in the sink (where I probably should have put it in the first place) and began to scrape melted plastic off of the burner. Thankfully all that was ruined was the tub and a towel that burned through the tub! All of the stuff smelled like smoke, and we had to actually open our windows to air out the smoke and smell for about 25 minutes. It is currently 11 degrees outside and snowing BURRR!!
Poor Will. He still needed a tubby and now there was only five minutes left until Lost. What is a Mom to do? I had to put him in the big boy tub and miss the first 20 minutes of my FAVORITE show! That's love. I had Jordan watch it to fill me in, but he is not as detailed in the description of what happened as I would prefer him to be. I am hoping for word for word commentary, but he gives me a vague summary of what happened in like one of the storylines! "It's Hurley-centric, and he's crazy in the mental hospital in the future." Gee...I couldn't tell. Oh well, he actually tries to remember things, and I love him for that.
Here is Will in the tub. If you look closely, you can see his bottom two teeth in this picture! He really liked the big boy tub, and I don't think that we will buy a new one since he was pretty much out growing it anyway.



What a cute face! It makes up for missing part of Lost. I always read countless summaries and spoilers about it any way!Tomorrow we are going to the doctor for Will's 6 month appointment! Stay tuned!Check out Will's five month photo album, too!

I always worry this is going to happen in our house! I worry about someone sticking something on the stove when it is still hot. Sorry it happened to you. I loved it when I could switch my kiddos to the regular tub.
