Every morning after Mason has been up for a couple of hours he takes a nap, a short nap usually only 45min to an hour if I am lucky. I like to take this time to also take a short nap, to rid myself of the headache I have most mornings. Well today I was about 2o min into the nap when I woke up and smelled something burning! Yikes so I shot out of bed, looked in the bathroom first where Danny was taking a shower to see if it was the fan, and it wasn't. Danny concerned asks whats up, and I say "something is burning!!!" Danny could smell it too when he got out of the bathroom and I knew something was going on since he lacks my pregnancy/post pregnancy sense of smell, and usually makes fun of me for the things I claim to smell. So we searched downstairs and in the basement and couldn't find the source of the smell! What the heck, so I went back upstairs to see if it might be coming from the humidifier in Mason's room, and while I was up there Danny yells from downstairs that he found it.... dun dun dun.... it was coming from the dishwasher, and it wasn't something burning the we smelled, it was something melting! Thats right people melting plastic! The lid to my favorite water bottle was hanging down by the coil that heats up to dry the dishes. Yup, and as you can see in the picture that it melted through and then the gooey plastic melted back together in the middle so we couldn't just pull it off! So we had to get some tools to cut it off and then scrape off the residue plastic on the coil. Oh what a lovely morning, ahh and the wonderful smell of melting plastic! I had to open all windows in the middle of January to get of the smell.... now that I think about it, it still smells. Lovely!!!!
