What do you get when you cross a precocious two year old and two bottles of kid mouthwash???
Give Up??? Four RUNNY diarrhea diapers the next morning that don't smell like mouthwash.
Right about now, you must be thinking..."That Claudia doesn't watch her kids. Poor little Carter finds all of the dangerous stuff because she's not watching."
Well, the truth is that we put the little critter to bed and after he thinks we are asleep, he sneaks out of his room...into the hallway bathroom and finds every possible thing he can drink and eat. It doesn't help that the other two boys left their mouthwash sitting on the bathroom counter. The only way I did find out was when he walked into my bedroom and approached my side of the bed where I was causally reading a book. He approached me with a green tinted tissue he was cleaning his mouth with and said, "Yucky drink!" I bolted into action and ran to the bathroom where I found both bottle of mouthwash with the lids off, sitting on the toilet lid!!
Good Times.

Aren't those bottles child proof?? Guess not "Carter-proof"! Crazy kid!
With that much mouthwash, he should have been drunk as a skunk.
You should kid proof his doorknob. We did that with Kristen a long time back and it's great. Put a round knob on the door and then a plastic no-kid attachment on the inside. She doesn't come out until we want her to. Best $5 I ever spent
Carter you are a rock star! Thanks for all the crazy things you do because you put a smile on my face! Just don't hurt yourself...because then I would be sad!
Update on Carter and responses to posted comments --Great idea on the door nob security, Chris. Also, the liquid in question was actually kid's fluoride rinse, so there was no alcohol in it. No, the bottles don't have child proof caps (makes sense since the stuff is for children), but they are the type of bottles that you squeeze and liquid fills the top cup, so there was a barrier to him getting a big swig of the stuff. And he didn't like the taste. So the ER Dr. doesn't think Carter swallowed nearly enough of the stuff to be toxic to him. Makes sense. The belief is that the runs were caused by a virus. Things cleared up and his bm's got back to normal this weekend. Woo-hoo!!
