Life at the Larsen household is busy as always. With 7 kids running around my house i'm never short of adventure and mischief. Mostly, to my dismay, from my son. I now believe every child should come with cow bells.
Caleb wanted to go downstairs the other morning and we told him we'd go in a minute and he said "OK" and went over and OPENED the door! So now at any given time throughout the day I hear all sorts of doors opening and words like "Cookie" and "Tato" coming from the kitchen (Caleb loves to eat raw potatoes that I have in the pantry). I'm not looking forward to when he can open the fridge there's so much more in there that he likes to eat.
Well, yesterday morning I was looking to redress my blog when I hear a blood curtling scream come from my daughter. I ran in and her whole face was red from being so angry and she had something wet on her nose where it was the wettest. I asked Caleb "What happend?" and he said "Mommy, I bite!" Then when I took one of my babies up to take a nap I came down to hear muffled screams again from my daughter. I found her on the couch under the cushions!
Later last night everyone ditched me so I went and grabbed myself a pizza and sat down to relax for a bit when I heard SILENCE coming from the kitchen where Caleb was playing. I went to take a look and he told me "Petezy Mommy" He pronounces pizza (Pete-z). He totally got this off the counter in one piece all by himself and was picking every pepperoni off the slices and eating it.
About 10 minutes after the pizza event I heard SILENCE coming from the backyard. (Note: Earlier, when I went to get the pizza I couldn't find the keys to my van so I had to use the spare.) I went out to spy on Caleb and this is what I found.
You think it would stop there but the night just got better! I heard some weird noises coming from Caleb's bedroom I went to check on him and I didn't see anything to out of the ordinary except Caleb had stripped his bed. I asked him what he was doing and he said "I Jumping". I pulled the mattress up and this is what I found. He actually broke a third spoke but I jimmy-rigged it so it's permanently in place again.
Now I know what your thinking "Where was this boys Mother?" Well I was trying to watch TV so I guess that's what I get for not paying attention. But maybe a little part of it is that boys will just be boys.
