A Litte Unexpectedness.

Things I did NOT expect to see in my son's hands/mouth today (featured in chronological order, and completely non-fictional)
1. Chalk (in the mouth, chewed up and ready for digesting.)
2. VERY sharp scissors
3. Toilet bowl brush (twice)
4. My brand new blushes (all 5 of them - DE-stroyed.)
5. Tweezers (weapon of choice to destroy said blushes)
6. A kitchen knife
7. His father's cell phone (that's now broken, thanks to him)
8. An entire round loaf of sourdough bread (in the mouth)
9. My coffee (for like the 37,000th time - he ONLY wants mine (it's all sweet and creamy), and I swear he's got a heat-seeking missle on his head aimed straight at my cup no matter how high I can get it)
10. Halls lozenges
11. a LIVE cockroach (oh wait - that was yesterday - my bad.)
12. a toy I keep throwing away
13. and... um... hmm... I must be missing something.
14. Oh ya. Some miscellaneous spice jars.

Suddenly today, I believe he developed teensy tiny little octopusses on his hands that are unable to be seen by the human eye, but which allow him to grab an obscene amount of hazardous items from every thinkable surface of his little world. Hip hip hooray!! I LOVE this stage! I'm sorry... WHO said boys were easier than girls??

NO way! Yeah, sounds like you have been just a little busy.

Don't you sometimes miss the days when they just sat there, unable to grab anything!? And of course there are days when you miss the days when they didn't SAY anything!

Yikes. Sounds like someone is keeping you on your toes! I am always surprised how I can turn my back for two seconds and during that time my boys can find something mischievious to get into!

I LOOOOOVE my girls, but my youngest still puts everything in her mouth. I thought I had "lost" all of the markers, but she still ends up every day with a blue/pink/purple/green mouth.

Ok, so the toilet bowl brush thing...totally had me rolling on the floor laughing.

Your son should meet my youngest daughter. I swear they are a match made in heaven!

Amy said...

Oh man, you have had a busy day!! And girls do the same things, at least mine did. But I have to say that I am so thrilled to be out of that stage! Best of luck to you, he sounds like a handful but he is a cutie!
