Adventures with Fluffy

Today, I was thinking about my Fluffy and all the wildness, excitement, happiness, and frustration she has brought our family.  Of course, I started this thought process after she pulled another Fluffy stunt!

We took Fluffy and Cinnamon on the train to SLC today.  The girls think it is the coolest thing ever to ride the FrontRunner and then TRAX.  We had a great time together touring around Temple Square.

Then it was time to go home...

As we were sitting on the FrontRunner waiting to head back, My Love decided to use the bathroom before the train left the station.  He was gone a little while...not that long really...but to Fluffy it seemed like FOREVER!  Of course, she forgets that it takes time to wash your hands after you go potty because she HATES that part and avoids it if at all possible...

Anyway, as My Love comes walking back to his seat, Fluffy says VERY LOUDLY, "Daddy, you were gone a very long time!  He just smiled and started to turn red because everyone around started to laugh.  And then Fluffy says, "Did you have to go poop?  Is that what took you so long?"  Then the laughter really started... Poor guy was bright red...but he did tell her LOUDLY, "Nope, I didn't poop...just had to wash my hands really good!"

There really is never a dull moment when Fluffy is around...

Last year, Fluffy stuck a rock up her nose and had to have it removed at the ER. We tried everything to get it out...even pepper under the nose to make her sneeze. Ironically, two days before that incident, while Grandma and Grandpa M were babysitting the kids and playing with them at McDonald's, Fluffy started to cry and told them something was up her nose...they couldn't see anything and she finally let it drop. We told the ER doc about it and he said he couldn't see anything more than the rock. So, we went home.

A couple of weeks later, Fluffy really started to stink and her nose was getting really yucky and runny. I told My Love that I thought there still must be something up in her sinuses that was starting to rot! Needless to say, I got her in to the pediatrician and told her that even though we had her on antibiotics (because her nose was infected from the rock incident...or so we thought), she was not improving and she was smelling not so nice. The doc looked up her nose and said she thought she saw something. She grabbed some LONG tweezers and pulled out this big piece of plastic...it was part of the plastic wrapper from Fluffy's McDonald's toy! Poor kid had that up there for a couple of months! I think that she has learned her lesson...hopefully!!!
