Mommy's rings!

So yesterday I sat on the couch to put sunscreen on the kids before we went outside. I took my rings off so they wouldn't get lotion all over them and I set them bedside me. Makenna ran off with the sunscreen bottle and then brought it back. I got her lotioned up and looked down and my rings were GONE! I asked Nolan like 10 times, and of course he just laughed and ran around the room! He's 2.5, so it's not like bribery or force was going to help me convince him to tell me where they were.

So for most of the next 2.5 hours I tore apart the entire downstairs looking for them. I had both couches on end and rotated and checked all through them. (I found $.35, 2 hairbows, 2 puzzle pieces, and about 100 cheerios, puffs, and goldfish crackers...but no ring!).

A friend brought over her metal detector and I scanned Makenna. I was convinced she ate them!! I called the insurance to see where I could take them both in for non emergant xrays, as I just knew one of them ate them!

I called Keith and he came home for his lunch break and we kept looking. Keith found them at the bottom of the toybox!!! So I am not sure which of them grabbed them and tossed them in the toybox, but one of them did!!

Life with two toddlers is never dull, that's for sure! Photobucket

I was on edge the whole time reading this just hoping you found them. How scarey! Lesson learned though TY...because I always take my rings off to lather Ethan up after his baths.

SOOO glad you found them! I would be so upset to loose my rings too, I will keep that tidbit stored away and look there first when things go missing!
