What mommy?

I just wanted to write my name on my face.

Chocolate Powder

This has been occurring on a normal basis for awhile now.  When I leave the room to do anything I almost always find her some where she is NOT supposed to be.  This is her favorite spot.

Caught in the act!

Why we lock the bathroom gate

Because I have enough things to think about there are two things in the house that I am not willing to take out at this point. One is the giant barricade around the fireplace (even though I can't wait for it to be gone) and the other is the bathroom gate. Today the gate got left open. This is the result of what happened in a matter of 2 minutes. Normally I would assume Cole did this only because he is notorious for causing havoc and clogging toilets however the remote control in the toilet is a dead giveaway. That remote does not leave Siena's site. She will do anything to get it even if it means pretending to want to give you kisses only to reach behind you and grab it off the back of the couch. She is relentless about that remote. He second favorite is the telephone. After emptying half the trash can into the toilet she must have left the remote because she heard me walk into the kitchen. When I rounded the corner she was standing on the outside of the gate like she was going to try and sneak in. I locked it and thought to my self "whoa! that was a close one" Little did I know what she had already done. Mike found it about an hour later.

The donkey

This is one of our leather chairs. Cole did this about a week ago. I haven't had the energy to clean it yet. If you ask him what it is he will tell you it is a donkey. There are 3 matching ones in pink on one of my office walls.

She never stops

putting things in her mouth. Always battling this. At least she will spit it out when I ask her too.

Easy to predict

If Siena is left alone sleeping in our bed it is guaranteed that when she wakes up she will have those little things at the end of the sting for the blinds in her mouth. I need to get them put up and out of her reach.

Reason number 1

As to why the table has been banned from the house.

I just find her sitting there constantly.

Why do they always empty out the drawers?

Siena's new favorite activity

If Siena gets out of your sight, nine times out of ten she is in Cole's room and trying to get up on to his bed. She LVOES the mobile and will spend her days trying to get to it.

Ice cream burglar

Why we locked the freezer : reason number 452

He will eat the last of your favorite ice cream while hiding under the kitchen table.

Banana yogort skin care

Haven't you heard? It's all the rage in Europe.

Even Onyx wants in on it. Ok not really. She didn't have a choice. She would have rather licked it up.

The Chocolate Meringue Incident

Monday was one of those days. You know the type of day where you just want to run away. After a long morning of a broken washing machine (repair guy said it not worth it to fix), Cole sticking peanuts up his nose, and Siena refusing to sleep, Cole trying to feed Siena cornflakes, I'd about had it! I was tending to Siena and Cole was in the other room watching a movie. I heard him grab something off the counter but I didn't think much of it. I knew there were no knives or scissors so I wasn't too worried. About 5 minutes later I hear him cracking up and I can hear Onyx running around. I ran into the room to find this:

A chocolate covered boy who has consumed god knows how many chocolate meringue's and then gave the rest of the box to the dog. Actually I caught him tossing the last of them at her and she was frantically running around trying to catch them all. This entire container was FULL when I left it on the counter. That's a whole pound of meringues!

Needless to say, he was pretty proud of himself. He thought he had just done the best thing ever!

Poor Siena met the rath of chocolate covered Cole. Like I have said before, he is constantly giving her wet sloppy kisses and yesterday was no exception.

Dried meringue is not easy to wash off. This happened about 20 minutes before I needed to leave for work. I wasn't dressed, had no dinner made for me or Mike, I needed to put make up on so I didn't scare anyone with my stressed out appearance.

I am sure he would do it again in a heartbeat. Poor Onyx now has the runs and really bad gas. I can only assume she feels how we would if we ate a pound of chocolate meringue.

Every where I should not be

When Cole doesn't get enough attention he goes looking for it. These are a few examples of his idea on how to get mom and dad to pay attention to me.

Caught in the act

Sweet pictures of big brother kissing little sister turned into big brother biting little sister on her ear.

Window Art

Hey if any one is interested in one of their own, Cole is more than happy to give you a one-of-a-kind window drawing.  Best part is that he loves it so much he works for free!

How much trouble (fun?) can this kid get into in an hour?

I think he is testing me today.  I am not sure yet how I will pass but he is still alive....

That would be cream cheese Cole.

Why he can pulls those out is beyond me.  I guess I just need extra stress in my life.

Gotta go.  I sounds like things are breaking in his room.  It is supposed to be nap time!
