mess makers

I spend my life cleaning up after these 2 rascals.

Most days it's worth it, but one day last week I about hit my max.

I was peacefully feeding the baby on the couch,

while Henry and James were playing with toys at the table.

I heard them giggling and thought to myself,

"What happy children. I'm so glad they are getting along."

And then, I turned around.

I found this...

They had painted the wall, the window, the door and themselves.

Yes, it's washable, but "washable" doesn't mean that it entirely comes off.

AND, "washable" doesn't mean that a 4 year old and a 2 year old can wash it up themselves.

So, who came to the rescue? Mommy, of course.

She put the boys in time out, cleaned up the mess, and was so grateful when Daddy came home just a few minutes later.

Are they jealous of their baby sister and acting out, or is this just what you get when you have 2 little boys?

I'm thinking it's the latter, and I'll be keeping the Clorox Wipes handy.
