blah blah blah!

I have so much to blog about lately, but I have been so busy, it is hard to find the time to blog. With Mike and I both in school ful time, and work full time, and kids, I am too exhausted to do anymore typing at 11pm. This weekend was our second weekend together as a normal family. We decided build shelves in our closet. When we moved into our house, we had huge closet, but no shelving in any of them. We literally thre piles of clothes into the closets in April, and have not moved those piles since! We have not had time to mess with it. Finally, I am having a garage sale that forced us into organizing. It was not a fun weekend, but it was very productive. But what is the deal with kids? When life is out of their norm they act like they can just act like maniacs, and it is no big deal. Here is a list of the things that they managed to do while we were working on the closet:
1. Friday morning, as I was getting ready to dress Owen, I discovered that he had emtied an entire bottle of Elmers glue all over his clothes in his closet.
2. Scarlett dumped an entire bottle of baby oil on our carpet.
3. Owen took my good lipgloss and painted our toilet seat and rug with it.
4. They both colored on our brand new coffee table.
5. They took their makers, some ribbon, a toleit paper roll, and lots of toys, and dumped them in the bathtub full of water, and just so you know, when you put markers in water they leak color all over everything!
6. Scarlett peed in her doll potty instead of the normal potty.
7. They broke all of their colors into small pieces.
8. I found Owen in the living room naked, with a beanie on, two different shoes on, eating apples, watching backyardagins. Don't you worry, I will be posting that picture real soon.
9. They faught over everything!
10. They painted their panda's but with my good eyeshadow.
There was lots of time in time out, and a few more spankings then they have had in their lives, but the closet is done. I know what you are thinking, "where the heck were you...because aparently you were not watching your kids!". I was watching them! they are just really sneaky these days. My kids have a pretty good schedule, but when it is switched up at all they obviously can not cope! But the closet is done!

No judging here. I can turn my back to the kids for one minute and prepare myself to find anything. I LOVE the list you posted. Each one CRACKS me up! All sound like things that would happen at my house if I was working on a project. And WHY must these messes always involve big key items like your good makeup and glue (not to mention your new coffee table)? Can't wait to see the V.E.R.Y. interesting picture of Naken-Apple-Eating-With-Two-Different-Shoes-On Owen.
