At least my home smells minty fresh

Happy Monday! What are you up to? Would you like to know what Flybaby is up to (bright smile, eyebrows up)?

Already this morning, Flybaby has:

• Sifted through the litter in the cat box


• Turned over a lidless sippy cup, spilling formula on the table, table legs and floor


• Discovered that the wall corner protectors placed by our home's previous owners can come off the walls -- sharp end of the screws sticking out


• Pulled up the loose threshholds on the floor


• Rearranged the (previously) floor-length scarf draped over sconces in the living room


• Foraged for a snack of forgotten cat food and wild bird seed in the floor track of the pantry's bifold door


• Knocked over two stacks of CDs


• Took a bite out of his bath sponge that I had to pull out of his mouth


• Refused to play with toys in favor of opening and shutting the bedroom door repeatedly

...and this was while I was watching him!

Last week, Fly hid a bottle of mustard in his room.

And while I was only feet away from him trying to put two handfuls of clothes in the dryer, he got the mouthwash out of the bathroom cabinet, unscrewed the "childproof" lid and glug-glugged a pool of green stuff around him on the floor. Which meant changing his outfit and cleaning the floor.

Fun times! (Can anyone say, "Let's install even more cabinet door locks?")

Let toddlerhood begin!
