December 2006:
"Ryan, Addie's belly button fell off! What a milestone! We must put it in a Ziploc bag and keep it forever!" (Don't worry, I didn't keep it. I threw it away, but I did consider it.)
January 2010:
"Ryan, Allie's belly button fell off!" and in the trash it went.
February 2011:
"Ryan, Rhett's belly button fell off! I can't find it! It's not in his diaper, not in his jammies... Did it come off when you changed him earlier? No?!? You mean there's a chunk of dried up umbilical cord somewhere in our house!?! What if Jake eats it!?! What if Allie eats it!?!"
The disgusted panic ended shortly thereafter when I found it lying in the floor of the kids' hallway... and quickly put it in the trash where it belonged!
