We had a very interesting and funny weekend (I can say that now). Tate is very into the exploring and seeing how everything works stage. Lately his interest has been the toilet. We've started introducing potty training, but he just has more interest in flushing the 'big potty'.
On Saturday, Blair made the comment that the toilet was very slow and wasn't flushing properly. My Uncle Dennis and Aunt Jan were at our house. So, my uncle (being the handy man that he is) helped Blair use an auger and work on solving the mystery. Before I knew it, the toilet was in the bathtub and the guys were reaching and digging. They had decided that something was stuck!
Having fun, Daddy?
THE CULPRIT!
While the guys worked away- Tate entertained himself.
Yes, he's wearing one of Mommy's headbands (another infatuation he has about the bathroom)!
After what seemed liked forever, they came to the conclusion that whatever it was was stuck in the trap of the toilet and was NOT coming out. We knew that a trip to Lowe's to get a new toilet was now thrown into our evening plans. Of course we had to figure out just what it was...What did Mr. Tate flush down the toilet? Blair was determined it was a golf ball.
Well he was wrong...
He busted it open to find my pumice stone. haha!
Tate was thrilled about the new toilet, and loved the box even more! :)
I guess it makes a good story!
