A. has been working on insulating Charlie's room (I know! Insulation! It's like we're modern people or something!), and needed some help today when he got to the part where he had to put the insulation on the sloping ceiling.
Whither I goest, so go the children, so the whole happy family trooped up to Charlie's tiny bedroom. I deposited Charlie in his crib and gave his mobile a spin. Cubby entertained himself with sticking screws through a leftover scrap of insulation. I held up the large sheet of insulation.
In the two minutes it took for A. to drill in enough screws to secure it, Cubby managed to grab Charlie's hat from his head, pat him a little too hard on the face--which of course made him cry--pull down the soap from the sink in the attached bathroom, and jump on top of the toilet.
So when I let go of the insulation to restore order to the chaos, Charlie was crying and Cubby was leaping from the toilet seat to the floor. And A. was still drilling.
Welcome to life at Blackrock.
LOL! Yep, brings back memories!!!
ReplyDeleteReconsider early pre-school placement!
ReplyDeleteI bet Cubby would love school. :)
ReplyDeleteDo they have one for pre pre construction workers? Beth
Sometimes there are sports groups for the very young. That would allow Cubby to run off some of that energy.
ReplyDeleteThe school and sports ideas sound great. Cubby sounds very smart and in need of new and different activities and people in order to be challenged. Very smart is very challenging.
