While Lee was home recently, I asked him to help give Morgan a bath/shower. When he asked what soap he should use, I told him to just use my body wash. He told me he couldn't find it, so I went and got it for him. I was slightly (but only slightly) annoyed because it was right there where I told him it would be. He pointed out to me that my body wash actually said "Foam Bath" on it, not body wash.

Here's the thing: I had noticed that my body wash didn't look like the kind my mom had, even though she's the one who had given me mine. I just thought maybe mine was packaged in an older bottle or something. I pulled out another body wash, which it turns out is actually called "Shower Gel," to confirm that, yes, indeed, I had been showering with foam bath! (To the left is the foam bath, the right is shower gel.) Oops...
This reminds me of a similar experience I recently had at my sister Ashley's house. The story begins when I was visiting her in Laramie, WY last summer. I took a shower and couldn't find any lotion. I finally found some under her sink, but it was strange lotion. I had to work really hard to get it to rub in. I decided it must just be old.

Fast forward to when I visited Ashley in California last September. Once again, I showered and then went in search of the lotion. As luck would have it, I found the same lotion I had used in Laramie -- only this time the lotion was actually on the side in the bath and not under the sink. I decided the bathtub is a strange place to keep lotion, but oh well. Once again, the stuff was a little hard to work into my skin. But you can't be picky when you're at someone else's house, right? About the time I was putting the darn stuff back into the tub, I noticed that it said "Body Wash" on it. Oops...

Next thing you know, I'm going to find out that the stuff I've been putting on my eyes is really lip gloss! Oh wait, that's what my girls did on Mother's Day (when we thought they were playing nicely in their room). I wish you could tell better in this picture, but they had colorful eyes and hair -- all from lip gloss. Oops...
I guess given my recent personal mix-ups with products, that rather than assume the girls were being defiant, I should consider that perhaps they too just got a little mixed up? (Not!!!) :)
