When the words, Desitin and couch, are in the same sentence it's not a good thing.
This morning I was working on one of my many projects and Lucas came into the kitchen. "Mom, Austin is naughty." Next, came Austin with a tube of desitin and smears of the butt cream all over his shirt and face. For some reason he likes to eat the stuff.
I didn't think too much of it, but I did get the tube of butt cream away from him and decided to check the toy room over to see where else it landed. You guessed it - the couch!!!!!!
So if you have any experience with butt cream in the couch or carpet, please advice me on how to get this stuff out. I already tried the carpet cleaner, that doesn't work. Now you know why we nicknamed him - Naughty Nick.
Sometimes I would like to stick a 'Kid for Sale' sign in my front yard and I would probably give them away for pretty cheap, but then want them back like 30 minutes later. LOL. I really do love my boys, but some of the stuff they come up with.... They must get that from Mike.
I love that kid!!!!
ReplyDeleteIn case you wondered, that was Dan. He loves it when kids are naughty.
ReplyDeleteOh, Cara, I wish I had some advice for you!! Is this the same couch that suffered the attack of the Baby Lotion too??
First to Danno - anytime you want him he's yours.
ReplyDeleteLuckily it's not the same couch. It's the couch in the toy room so I wasn't as upset as I was about the lotion, even though I can't get the butt cream out. I didn't have to send him to his room before I did something I would regret.
Oh my word. That stuff is so hard to get out of anything. It is even hard to get off of my hands when I use it with Kayden.
ReplyDeleteMade me chuckle though!
I would try that hand cream that guys use to get grease off their hand...not the orange gritty stuff...but there is another kind. Little white, round tub. Its worth a try...you definetly need something with grease fighting capabilities.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck!!
I haven't checked your blog lately, but had to laugh out loud when I read this entry! Not the laughing AT you kind of laugh, but the laughing, cuz I feel really bad for you, and would kill my own children if they did such a thing . . .
ReplyDeleteFaith once finger painted the entire front of her dresser with butt cream . . . although it was a huge mess, it cleaned up a whole lot nicer than it would have on carpet.
I don't have any advice on how to get it out . . . good luck!
