Lesson #14 - No Pens in the House

Never let your one year old run around the house with a pen. The pen will get on the leather couch and you will not be impressed.

Lesson #13 - When a 3 year old dresses himself

They just don't care about the details. Note the two different socks and the pants on backwards.

Lesson # 12 - Don't Ask

When your three year old emerges from the bathroom with his pants on inside out...don't ask questions...you probably don't want to know the answer!

Lesson # 11 - If you leave them with daddy :)

It is out of our control...they will end up just like their father :)

Lesson #10 - It never lasts!

The actual cleaning that takes place with the new cleaning playset is very...very...short lived!

Lesson # 9 - Was it worth it?

Sometimes the best toys end up being the most work for the parents...in this case for "Dad"!

Lesson # 8 - I am strong enough!

Sometimes the best toys are sitting with a "free" sign on the side of the road! I learned that if you want it bad enough...you can lift it into the back of the truck!

Lesson # 7 - If you Bulid It...

If you build it, they will come...and they will knock it over!

Lesson #6 - Maintaining Eye Contact

When confronted always maintain eye contact!

Lesson #5 - A Lesson in Plastic!

When trying out the "Bumbo" chair be sure to wear pants when your legs are sure to get stuck. Bare legs will most certainly not help you get out!

Lesson #4 - Who is going to clean that up?

The lesson from the one year old: Never leave a just opened box of cheerios within reach. They will dump it. The lesson from the three year old: "Don't worry mommy...just laugh!"

Lesson #3 - Time for Bed!

Just because you say it is bedtime doesn't mean they are going to put their heads on their pillows and drift off to sleep. However, it is safe to say that they will eventually get tired and fall asleep!

Lesson #2 - When To Give a Bath!

Never give your child a bath in the morning if you plan on feeding them spaghetti for lunch!

Lesson #1 - An Experiment with Milk!

Never poor milk on your brothers head. It will not role off his head and into his mouth...it will however make him stink!
