don't cry over spilled milk, toys and chips



SORRY for the blurry pictures, but I was in a hurry to take them! Honestly, who would have thought that such a sweet little face could produce such gigantic messes?!






In TEN MINUTES time he had spilled his milk, played in his spilled yogurt, and dumped out half a bag of tortilla chips. He then proceeded to play in aforementioned yogurt, slopping and throwing it everywhere.


Another afternoon, we were walking out the door to go to the swimpark and as I was getting the other two ready, I walk into the kitchen to see this:

He found a blueberry-scented marker! He took turns smelling it and then eating it. The marker took two weeks to rub off, as it was not a washable one! (just my luck) It was funny to have other parents smile or laugh with me about it. The messy joy of parenthood!

I also caught the kids throwing toys around the room and quickly blaming their baby brother! It was funny, I honestly think that Carter had some help from his older siblings.... It has since been cleaned up and has stayed tidy.

I think if we got your youngest and my youngest together, they would burn down the house :)

Love the messy Carter pics. I think the blue marker scribbles are my favorite. Thank you so so very much for all of your help today. I really do appreciate all you did. :)

Carter sounds like he keeps you busy. I had to find out the hard way too about non-washable markers, but I learned the trick is rubbing alcohol, put it on a cotton ball, scrub the area and it should come out of the skin a lot better.
