I love this photograph. I've had it saved to a fav folder for about 2 years now, and I never get tired of looking at it. This one is a goodie too.
Look at the baby's toes. Now that's attention to detail. This sharpie-wielding kid is going to be famous some day. What I love best is how proud the perps are in both of these photos.

"Look, mommy. I made the baby pretty."

Hilarious. Though that paint one just makes me cringe. Waaaay expensive and time consuming to fix that.

One time two days after my brother had redone his dining room ceiling and put crown moulding up, my then nine-year-old niece, um, "Clementine Swan" decided she was going to be very grown up and have a shower instead a bath. She left the shower curtain outside the tub. Water went not only through the ceiling but down the hall and down the stairs.

Weeks later my mother asked Clementine if she'd been having anymore showers lately. She said, "No, not since the last time."

This is a really good example of why we keep the pens out of my toddler's reach. The Sharpie scenario is more likely than the paint but neither is too far out of the realm of possibility in my house these days!

Thanks, iconomy! These are fantastic!

The paint one makes me want to curl up in a ball amd weep.

I remember when my brother was about 3 years old, he got loose in my parents' bedroom with a bottle of Johnson's baby powder, which he managed to empty all over the bed and the carpet before my mom discovered him. That pales in comparison to body-painting the living room.

Oh yeah that fuckin' TV is RUINED! Smart kids. They have their own best interests in mind.

When I was two my parents had friends over for dinner and put me down for a nap. I slept in the same room my father studied in, and my parents were quite impressed at how quiet I was throughout their meal.

When they came upstairs to check on me, they discovered that I had occupied myself the whole time with a bottle of india ink and had painted myself, most of the bottom tow-thirds of my father's desk, and a good-sized section of carpet, black.

Good times!

My sister decided one day to do the dishes for my mom. She put dishwater detergent in the dishwasher. The mess was unbelievable and pretty funny.

Thanks for the pictures, ico! (And I'm going to the p.o. at noon!)

A friend came to lunch two weeks ago and brought her 13-month-old son. He destroyed two of my houseplants, marked my walnut dining room table, left a huge gob of mucus on an upholstered chair, screamed with outrage whenever I took something away from him, and created general untidiness and mayhem. After they had left, I thought, "Do I really want one of those?"

Dear lord. I'm calling my husband's doctor right now to schedule the vasectomy!!!

(Adorable since they're someone else's though!)

There was a time when I was a single mom, when I was outside cleaning up the toys. I went inside to find my two year old had found a wide black marker, and colored all my white kitchen cabinets. (Mind you, I was renting at the time). Did you know that baking soda really cleans off marker?
This same child, some months later, after a hot summer day in the backyard, came inside and used a stick of butter as lotion all over his body. That was hysterical!
