How NOT to make chocolate milk

Ok, so as the story goes, Benjamin earned chocolate syrup by going potty in the toilet!!!! YEAH! He is doing wonderfully!!! So I run out and buy chocolate syrup Friday night. No problem. He got his chocolate milk, he was a very happy boy.

Saturday, he had some in the morning, again, very happy. Saturday afternoon, Ben decided he wanted some more. So as is his normal routine, he brought me the milk and chocolate and his cup........great, except I didn't see him and yes he was about oh....a foot away from me.............

so......
Ben decides to make his own chocolate milk........(I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story)






Needless to say it took quite a bit to clean the carpet. What a yucky sticky mess. And to clarify for David, it was RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE. Oops.

Crazy Days

So has it been crazy where you are?
It has been a bit crazy here starting with passing around this silly cold, yuck. Madison got sick then had shots and now is not sleeping as well. Benjamin is sleeping well, but during the day he is working hard at being 2. He is very independent which is a great thing but that also means that he is getting into many things that are dangerous, or high, or messy :)

The older boys are definitely showing signs of being cooped up in the house too long. Apartment living is very challenging. I need to figure out a way for them to play outside safely and on a regular basis. Also it seems that they have an allergy for homework lately and that is a challenge.

Other then normal crazies, we are all doing well. Still trying to get over the colds, poor Stevie has it now. Hopefully once he gets rid of it then we won't send it around again.

I need to get pictures or video up of Madison's new trick :) Hopefully I will get to that really soon, she is sooo cute (as are all of the boys too)

Have a great day! Today is president's day which means the boys are home from school. We will have a great day too I hope!!
