Hi there!
As this blog continues to develop, I’d like to start a thread with a common theme called, Moose Tales. These will be just quick stories and snippets of situations that Carter puts us in on a daily basis. I call it Moose Tales, because I’ve been trying to anoint Carter with the nickname “Moose” since before he was born, really just because it’s an awesome nickname! Anyways, here’s the first Moose Tales. Toothpaste.
For many months now, I think because it feels good on his inflamed gums from his teeth coming in, Carter has loved to carry around our toothpaste and chew on the lid. On Tuesday night, as Beth and I get ready for bed, Beth reaches for the toothpaste in our normal drawer, and wouldn’t ya know, it’s missing! We quickly figure out that two little feet must have carried it off, and proceed to spend the next 15 minutes looking for the toothpaste! To quote one of our favorite books, “Love Monster”, “we looked high. We looked low. We looked middle-ish.” We seemed to look everywhere on each level of the house! Under beds, dresser drawers, toy boxes. And wouldn’t you know, it was perfectly placed between a stack of Beth jeans in the back of our closet! Makes perfect sense to me! Only took 15 minutes to see the beauty of that little mind of his.
Bottom line, keep an eye on your toothpaste! It might walk off some day. 😂🤣
