Messy Face

This morning I made cookies for the ladies I visit teach (yes, it is the last day of the month, I am an awesome visiting teacher!) I made Chocolate Mint Brownie Cookies, very yummy. My kids begged me for cookies all morning, but I made them wait until after lunch. They ate their lunch really well today! As I was handing out cookies to the older boys Adam saw them and got really excited, smiling, and laughing, and pointing, he knew it was something good. I didn't really want to give him one because I knew it was going to be messy, but I couldn't say no to that sweet, pleading face. This is how he looked when he was done.
I think he liked it. I left him in the high chair for about 10 minutes trying to decide how I was going to clean him up. I tried wiping him with a wash cloth, but that just spread the mess around. It is really hard to clean someone up who doesn't want to be cleaned up, he didn't make the job easy. I finally just took him to the bath tub.

Speaking of Adam, here are some of the other amusing things he has been up to lately.
Getting into the bathroom soap, or the toilet, he has learned to lift the lid

Pulling dirty clothes out of the hamper and stuffing them in Jacob's drawer. He also likes to pull clean clothes out of Jacob's drawer and put them in the hamper. He is constantly making more work for me.

I have to watch this one closely, he is very curious and always into something.

What a darling child. I think you should bring him to my house and leave him with me for a couple of days.
