9 Reasons not to leave your child unattended...

ever...

You may find:

1. A sticky mess of a toddler with a half full bottle of honey. The other half is all over his bed; sheet, pillow and blanket...

2. ALL the books from your children's bookshelves piled onto a bed...
Or - all the toys and books from the shelves into the crib - on top of little sister...
3. Your budding athlete/magician showing off his new "trick" - throwing all the sidewalk chalk over the 8ft wall into the neighbors yard...

4. Six empty yogurt containers strewn across the living room...

5. A masterpiece of epic proportions on your wall, created with crayons and color pencils...
Clearly it got worse before it got better - and I think a whole layer of paint came off with it when it finally got cleaned. 
6. ALL the clothing and shelving removed from one half of your toddlers closet...
(to make a hiding place, of course)

7. Your independent daughter in the bathtub, clothing on the floor and the hot water running...

8. Two sweet smelling toddlers with half a bottle of baby powder. The other half is all over their floor, shelves and beds...

9. What you thought was your potty trained boy "doing his business" in the bathroom turned out to be an attempt to flush an entire roll of toilet paper down the toilet...
(thankfully it didn't work, or we'd have one badly clogged john)

Some days it really is a wonder I get anything done at all with these two mischievous munchkins running around!

What do your kids get up to if left unattended?

  2. Oh man...what haven't they done?
    Meres wrote on the walls yesterday. She also is a de-stuffer of stuffed animals. Nothing down the toilet yet, but-knock on wood...=)

  3. Haha. This one makes all us mamas feel a little better about our situations. My little girl loves to unroll toilet paper spools, color on everything if I forget to put the crayons away, and lately tries to climb the cabinets. Enjoyed this post a lot!
