Surprise!







The first time the phone rang this morning, Brandon and his little friend Kate decided to give Beckett an Oreo cookie. He loved it. Time for bath #2 of the day.

The second time I got caught on the phone, Brandon found a blue crayon and colored the entire couch, including the back side and the pillows. It took about 45 minutes of scrubbing and a full bottle of Shout to get it out. Sometimes I feel like all I do is clean up one mess after another!

Whoa! What a day! I feel like all I do is clean up after everyone all day long too. It gets better :)

My kids get into so much more trouble when I'm talking on the phone. They know I won't do much about it just to have a little bit of peace and quiet for a few minutes while I'm chatting with someone!

What is it with kids when their mom's on the phone? My kids are at their worst when I'm on the phone. We haven't had our couches colored yet - I'm sure it's coming.

I am this close (microscopic space between thumb and forefinger)to throwing away every last crayon, pen, marker, playdough canister, and moonsand tub in our house. How crabby-old-lady is that?

I'm thinking they can always paint with water . . . on the sidewalk . . . outside.
