Path of Destruction

Pheww...it's only 10:30 am and Cole is down for a nap. I need one too. So far Cole has managed to:
  • Fling all his unwanted breakfast food onto the floor
  • Dump every toy out of every toy basket in the house
  • Be put in his crib for time out for trying to destroy the tv and vcr with a wooden toy instrument
  • Yank his sister's hair
  • Dig in the garbage and pull out the stale chocolate cookies I threw away
  • eat aforementioned stale cookies and leave chocolate crumbs everywhere
  • Knock over the large, heavy filing crate I placed on the garbage can to keep him out of the stale cookies
  • Bang his head against the television armoire because he was trying to walk in daddy's tennis shoes
  • Climb onto the computer printer in an attempt to reach the computer keyboard

I promise I watch him, he's just quick and deadly! AND this is a very typical morning at the Sytsma house. So, please don't come by unannounced. I'd be very embarrassed by the fact that I'm still in my pajamas (Destructor is up at 6am), you might break your neck on the toys covering the floor, and there's a long trail of cookie crumbs leading to a very mischievous, energetic, happy, adorable boy! Pheww. Time for another cup of coffee and that much needed shower.

I'm so relieved to know that I'm not the only mommy who turns to coffee for the energy she needs to keep up with a little boy!
