Ummm, you missed the bed little one

Two things that don't go together

Lilly and a bell


It's my clean up bell that I have to say works rather effectively with Lilly and Drew except when she gets her hands on it.

Warning...

Toddlers and glass do not go well together.




I did not get a picture of the shattered glass on the floor after the glass slipped from Drew's hand because I was in "Children-go-play-in-the-other-room-right-now-mode"

Advantage Parents

So, we all remember Lilly's new dresser?


Now that they can't play hide and seek in it any more, they have chosen a new activity that happens more than three times a day.



Parents win.

Sorry for my lack of computer "know-how" to actually enlarge the image...but I was proud I successfully scanned it in correctly. I have to thank Elissa for designing/giving me this priceless gift that IS the book mark above. And yes..that is a direct quote from myself on the book mark that I tell all my friends that choose to indulge in these books. Maybe I should sell these?? We just insert your face over mine.

Chritmas trees and toddlers

No real exciting stories of Christmas Tree shopping here...we just went to Home Depot where the kids think they are driving a real race car for a cart. They enjoyed watching daddy some how magically attach a tree to my car. They now see my car and say "mama's tree car"



Hey...where are all the ornaments?


Ohhhh, there they are. This occurs multiple times a day, and I just refuse to clean it up more than just once at the end of the day.

The Gloves

So Lilly has started to insist on wearing these gloves when she is around the house. Despite the fact that she can't actually play normally in them, she proceeds to pick up balls, toys, or even food with them on. When the item falls or is dropped, she refers to her "high pitch-only dogs can hear" scream because the item is not doing what she wants. When Todd and I tell her to take off the gloves so everyone in the house will be happier again, my darling daughter usually does not agree with us.

Is there a mouse in this house?

So either we have a mouse guest in this household or another member of this family has decided cardboard is a nutritious food substance. I am wondering if cardboard could fall under the vegetable category?
