Yesterday we had a Huge Oil Spill at our house, thank goodness it was only Olive Oil and Izzie didn't hurt herself. While we were watching TV, Izzie was running around, playing and doing only Lord knows what because all of the sudden we hear glass breaking! Immediately Roberto ran to Izzie to see that she had her Isabella placemat in hand and she was standing on broken glass and olive oil. I took her to the bathroom and undressed her, darn it, she had just taken a bath!! No blood anywhere on her-good, just her pj's and her shoes full of olive oil-tomorrow's laundry. My father in law is a very superstitious person, he believes spilling olive oil brings you bad luck. We've decided not to let him in on Izzie's Oil disaster; the last thing we need is Nonno warning us of bad luck. I can already hear him say "Oh Mamma mia, is Nonno's love ok?" Now we are left with olive oil re emerging from our tiles...I didn't know this but since the tiles are very porous the oil will sit to then come back to surface. This is not cool! It'll be a never ending battle with the oil then!

Izzie is becoming more and more curious. On Monday we were outside and I found her squatting down and poking at something, when I reached her, she was munching on a snail's home! The snail was still inside what was left of the home, and she was spitting. It was funny to see her making a "yuck" face...in my opinion she's too little to want to eat escargot, but when she's 18, I'll be able to tell her of her early escargot experience. On Tuesday morning, she was playing outside and she found a dead mosquito, I'm glad I was at arm's reach because she was about to taste that as well. Yuck!! Seeing her almost put the mosquito in her mouth really made my stomach churn, it made me think about my brother Josh. My Mom told us that when he was little she found him one day with a lizard inside his mouth, the only thing hanging outside his mouth was the lizard's tail. Double yuck!! It amazes me how little minds work and the extent of their curiosity! They may get into danger, at least what we parents consider danger, and they may hurt themselves, but as long as they are curious, we have to remember they are only exploring their own world. I am very blessed to have a healthy and very curious little girl...she's my little genius.
