the ants go marching.....


So we have been dealing with a problem i'm sure many of you have faced at some time or another..... ANTS!! We hate them and have been battling them for weeks! But nobody hates them more than miss princess Olivia. On multiple occasions after Olivia has finished her bathroom business she will get up on the little potty (to escaped the little creepy crawlies) and howler for me to come get her. She would not put her pants back on let alone try to walk out of the bathroom through their path! Now you may be thinking, wow they must really have a major infestation... not so much... it only takes one for her! The other day I had come inside for a minute while the kids were in the driveway playing and I heard Olivia scream and start crying hysterically... as I raced out to survey the damage, assuming that her "loving" brother had gotten a little too "loving".... what I found was Olivia screaming because a single solitary ant had crawled upon her foot!!! Well after about a week of potty accidents and balancing acts on the potty, I decided to park the potty in the middle of the kitchen floor! Guess what?? No more accidents! I guess the ants like the bathroom better. Luckily that didn't last long and we finally got her desensitized to the problem we have yet to conquer:) The ants go marching one by one....
