Toddler Antics

Ever see that commmercial where the dad is bathing one twin while talking to his mother on the phone? The other twin is brushing his teeth, and Dad gives the bathtub brother the cell to say hi to grandma. Bathtub twin throws it in the toilet, tooth-brushing twin pulls the lever and woosh! There goes Daddy's cell phone.

Ever think, "No way...a cell phone won't go down a toilet like that!"

Yeah, it will.

Our little Lola managed to flush cousin M's cell phone down our toilet yesterday morning. And unfortunately, we only have one toilet, so it was a Very Big Deal in multiple ways. My brother-in-law, God bless him, has moved back to town and came over after work last night to dismantle the toilet and fish the cell phone out. He even thinks it may still work, because the battery chamber was dry and he managed to get it to vibrate. We'll see. We don't have the $200+ to replace it, obviously.
