That was close, a little too close!

Last nite we almost had a Christmas catastrophe! But let me start at the beginning...It was our ward temple nite & we were excited to go & get to know our ward better. I was in the bathroom getting ready with Averee watching & keeping me company while I primped. Then she asks if she can go pick out my dress & I say sure why not, she actually has really good taste. Danny usually lets her pick out his tie on sunday. However, I momentarily forgot that her & Adee's Christmas presents were hidden behind some clothes on a shelf right next to where my dresses hang. Next thing I know Averee says "what is that pink box under there?" Well, I panicked, rushed her outta there & said "it is private mommy & daddy stuff". Without missing a beat she says "Why is there a picture of a baby on it?" I really panicked now & all I could come up with is "It's, um, private mommy & daddy stuff that, um, we use....to make babies!" Keep in mind that Danny has been in the closet getting dressed this whole time & thinks it is hilarious! I couldn't even keep a straight face while I said that, so then Averee asks "Why are you guys laughing?". "Just cuz we're embarrassed....now go watch the Grinch with Adee & Owen." That was close, a little too close! We laughed about it all nite. Santa will definitely have to take the gifts out of the box this year! Averee is just getting too smart for her own good! And don't worry-right after we got home from the temple I put the presents in a much better hiding place! My mom even tried to worn me a couple weeks ago that I should find a better spot. Just another example of 'shoulda listened to my mom'. Now I am just waiting for the plethora of 'making babies' questions that Averee is sure to start asking. Poor kid probably thinks babies come out of a box now! Oh well, live & learn!
