Shannigans

Well, not that this is a shocker to anyone, but 2 two year olds can get in a lot of trouble in just a very short period of time.

This is becoming more evident with each passing day. Let me provide a shortened recap of a couple good examples.

March 17. I was requested to provide green jello for Charlie's preschool class. Being a mother of equality and opportunity for all, I thought Matt & Will should have some green jello for lunch too. Well, let's just say they enjoyed it, but not the way I intended. After one of Jon's "minutes" away, he came back to find the green jello removed from the refridgerator and dumped in the living room corner behind our new double chair. Thankfully on the hardwoods, not the carpet. Oh, and an unopened gogurt.

Today. Jon is gone for a "minute" to talk to a contractor. He comes back to a wide open fridge. 2 2 year olds riding around in a firetruck with about 20 gogurt sticks loaded in the seat (this is the 1st place to look for something if you are missing keys, cell phone or milk sippy in our house) minus 1 gogurt that is cut up (yes with scissors) in the middle of the living room floor.

Next "minute" break, Jon returns to find 2 kids pushed up against the kitchen sink, scrubbing dishes soaking wet. After already drenching themselves with the water dispensor on the fridge.

Guess what was on the target list today? A lock for the fridge. More child locks. Now if we could just find more high spots that they can't reach when they climb on the kitchen chairs.
