What can I get into?



This morning our son got into a box of his old clothes (which he threw about the room), the toilet brush (which he flung all over our bathroom walls, toilet & tub) the toothpaste (which was placed by the toilet brush so we have no idea what he did with that) & finally spilled something on the activity room rug (which was clear & didn't smell like anything; very suspect). All this before 10 am! So after my hubby gave me my shot this morning, I put the clothes back in the box, cleaned the bathroom floor, tub (which I actually have to bleach now because scrubbing didn't work), toilet & walls, & then threw away the toothpaste, toilet brush & remainder cleaning up materials. When I checked the rug, paper towels weren't soaking anything up. Weird.

While I'm doing all this, hubby was teasing me even though he knows I'm very moody these days. In general if I'm feeling moody these days, I keep my mouth shut. It generally works unless you have your husband needling you just to annoy you. Finally he went too far & my top blew. Luckily he left for work then.

After he left, I was still cleaning & had an issue with something. I can't even remember what now. Then I huffed & puffed. Finally I finished where I found our son absorbed in tv. Right there I decided we needed to start the day fresh. So into the shower we went. Our son played with his toys on the shower seat (he's doing much better being under the water now) & I was able to relax in the shower. It was just what we needed.

Afterwards our son was exhausted & went straight to sleep after getting dressed. While he slept, I labeled & sealed boxes of clothes to store in the basement. That leaves me with quite a few boxes outside our bedroom which my lucky hubby gets to carry to the basement tonight.

I still need to decide if I'm going to store his 2T shirts (which still fit but are getting tight over the head) & pants (some which may fit & others not but most just aren't long enough anymore). We still have a few more weeks until the local school clothing sale where our son practically needs a new wardrobe in 3T! I'm not looking forward to that price tag. Until then, I just need to start checking resale shops to cover us until then. At least some of his 2T onsies are fitting so we can use them for pjs because his sleepers are skin tight on him since he's so tall!
