Band-aid are the fix all!

Finally something I can for sure blame on my mom! When she was here, she took Danika to the science center. While they were there Danika fell and cut her knees a bit. So when they got home- which I am pretty sure was a couple hours later- they got band-aids. Keep in mind we have had band-aids in the house since she started walking, but NEVER used them. We used to tell her to rub it off, and she was fine. But now that Grandma introduced her to the world of band-aids- everything needs a band-aid.

If Danika falls (with or without actually hurting herself) she needs a band-aid, if one of her toes, fingers etc hurts, she needs a band-aid. It is to the point where if she is upset or gets told no, she needs a band-aid. But one night she actually cut her finger a bit. Brett asked if she needed a band-aid- and she said no! After that, we started telling her that we were out of band-aids and had to buy some next time we went to walmart.

Until this morning. I told her she couldn't watch minnie mouse on my laptop (she is a youtube junkie!). I went into the bathroom, and she followed, telling me her FOOT hurt. She said she needed a band-aid. I told her we were out. She opened the cupboard (which only has safe stuff under it- so don't worry)- and she found band-aids. She grabbed one, held it up for me to see, stuck her hip out (which is her new thing), and said "see mommy, I told you we have princess band-aids". I, of course, acted surprised, and said that daddy must have bought more. She said "no, it is the same box, with some out of it." WTH! With that, she sat down on her stool, opened the band-aid, and put it on her KNEE! (oh and she hasn't mentioned minnie mouse since then!)

Little does she know- she has to get a shot today, I am not sure if a band-aid will fix that!
