A whole day of messes

Yesterday I made it a point to try and catch all the messes Crew could make in one day. I wasn't able to catch them all on camera, but he didn't disappoint. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you "A whole day of messes"


It stared out with him asking for cereal for Breakfast..... So he could pour and spit it out...

While he was pulling out all his books and throwing them across the room he was saying "messes" over and over. Mission completed.

I wish you could see the video of this one because it was pretty funny to watch. He was swiping them off with his hands and decided he needed some foot action in there. His balance wasn't up to par so he went back to swiping until every single one was off.

In the Summer this is typical behavior for him. I literally replanted my flower pots a handful of times because of him and the dog. Right now it's a snowless Winter for us. Lucky for him.

How did he get out there you ask? Oh, the handy doggy door of course.

A cookie before dinner. You know you've done it too.

And last but not least. Before going to bed all the packed away Summer clothes needed do be pulled out.

There you have it folks. All in a day's work. There's always tomorrow. Bed time anyone?

Mess maker

I've been taking a break from crafting lately because, well let's face it. I'm exhausted and don't have time. I've recently just upgraded from the 2 kids category to the 3. And let me tell ya, I underestimated it. While I love the new addition. I'm also finding it hard to keep an eye on my toddler as well as I use to. Hence the reason for my new post.

Meet Crew. Adorable isn't he? Don't be fooled by his cheesy cute smile though. This curious child has mischief written all over him. He is the sweetest most loving little man ever and will give you kisses and loves all day. But, the second you take your attention elsewhere he's on a mission. A mission to gain all eyes on him. And boy does he get it.

 While Crew has been especially michevious lately, I realized making messes has always kinda been his "thing". Maybe it just seems worse right now because I'm more busy and he probably tries a little harder to get attention. I've decided that I'm going to start documenting all the mischief he gets into to shed some light on it (and because it's so often). Maybe now when my husband asks what I did today he can know that I literally did clean all day.



Looking back... 

Here are just a few that I've caught on camera.

Ah, the classic t.p. thief. See that toilet paper holder next to the toilet? Ya, neither do I. That's because on a regular basis Crew STILL takes all the stocked up toilet paper off and steals the holder to drag around the house for me to find at the most inconvenient time (if ya know what I mean).

And this one... This was the day we had just thrown his big first birthday party and I had just finished cleaning up. Apparently he hadn't had enough sugar. At least he tried to share!

These chocolates however, I was NOT wanting to share. He found them. And ate them all! Except the melted ones he sat on and got all over the pillows.

Baking powder. Maybe it tastes better if you rub it on your body first. 

This is just the start of it all. Stay tuned for more ways to make messes.
