Lord Please Bear Me Strength!

*Please ignore the nastiness around the toilet but I just had to take these pics!*

My son is the master of messes I have decided! I can not leave him alone for 2 seconds without finding some disaster to clean up after. It is very tiring on a poor ol' pregnant mom too! Doesn't the boy have any R-E-S-P-E-C-T! I think not! Take a look for yourself:






If you have figured out what this lovely white mess is then, it is white out. Yep! Where he got it I have no idea. I was talking to my mom on the phone and she mentioned that Cannon was being awfully quite so he must be getting in trouble. I assured her than "Noooo, nooo, he is in his playroom watching Nemo. He is either passed out on the floor or just playing quietly." Almost my exact words. HAHAHA! What planet was I on! It MUST be the hormones. Cannon was nowhere to be found in his playroom. I ran to my bathroom and the door was locked. I started to panic because it was really quite in there as well. As a mother you have all of these horrific scenes play through your mind of what you will find behind the door. Mine was what if he has drowned himself in the toilet bowl or the sink! Yes, a weird thought, but again it must be the hormones! Well, I was "lucky" that my imagination was incorrect. No, he was alive and well, painting the bathroom tile with white out. Nothing major! Seriously! Where does this child get his ideas! I don't understand why he feels a need to do stuff like this constantly. What am I doing wrong. I think the problem is he need to be somewhere doing something all the time. He isn't one of those kids that likes to sit and watch tv or lay around. He has to be actively doing something every minute he is awake! Which is a good thing, but I am just going to have to find some activity to keep the boy busy! I use to think I would not send him to preschool or anything but I am quickly changing my mind. He is just one of those kids that needs to be entertained and learning all the time. He is a very smart boy. He knew he wasn't suppose to do that, which is why he locked the door. He knows that he is not suppose to get up out of bed once we put him down for the night, which is why he uses the excuse "But I need to pee pee mommy!" Yes, he is a very smart boy indeed!

  1. Cannon is taking after his Uncle Brenden instead of his daddy. I never could leave Brenden alone without him getting into mischief and dragging his little brother along for the ride. (toothpaste on walls, buring matches, etc). Bequita

  2. Sage (my middle) child was/is like that. She was all the time getting into things and making messes. I couldn't leave her alone for a second. I also kept her home with my until this year (she turns 5 in January), she now goes to preschool 5 mornings a week. Before that I just had to keep busy. Playdates, park, playing in the backyard, trips to the mall to the playplace, ect... I also did things like bake cookies, and have lots of art supplies around so that she could paint. Chocolate pudding used as finger paints in the bathtub is super fun, and washes away easily. :)
