Never A Dull Moment. 4

Well though it has been a while, I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not...Ethan has passed along his "love" for baby powder to Lyla Jane...so twice in the past couple weeks one whole 15oz bottle of Johnson and Johnson's baby powder {about half each time} has found it's way onto the carpet and the couches and in the bird cage and on the coffee tables and all over two very guilty and darling children...once I was eating and the other time cleaning up the kitchen. Both times I suddenly smell this very strong powdery fresh smell...to which I say a bit aggravated, "Who is playing with the powder?!" And faintly from around the corner I hear Ethan. "Me and baby was..." So off to trouble..and a couple days later, same scenario. The good thing? Ethan has learned how to vacuum! And Lyla Jane? Well Lyla decided she won't touch the powder for a while...instead she takes the birdie food {by the handfuls} and throws it all over the carpet and couches and coffee tables instead...{sigh} Today though. Today was different...I sent my big boy Ethan into the bathroom to dispose of his potty diaper, use the toilet and put on some big boy undies...I went downstairs to help Elijah find some plain white paper. Ethan still hasn't come out...so I go in. Then I go right back out of the flooded bathroom. Breathe. He is just a curious little boy. God help me deal with him with out getting angry...so I go back in. GASP. The hand towel is stuck down the toilet. He said he flushed "a really lot of times" Only about 1 inch of water covering the entire floor...a few towels will take care of that. But then I see he has taken out the bubble bath. And squirted it all over the toilet, floor, tub...I guess he wanted a bubble flood? This all took place in about 3 minutes flat. That's my boy! Very efficient :) Needless to say the clean-up was a bit more than 3 minutes. But somehow his sweet, "I sowy fo doin dat mama." Makes it all better. Really. I love those little knuckleheads! There is NEVER a dull moment!
