Two year olds- gotta love em

[Alice28]

Two things happened yesterday that was all because we have an adorable 2 year old son, Joshua.

I had lost my keys back in October---I usually hang them up in the same place...I heard Josh playing with them while I was folding laundry and then I couldn't find them ANYWHERE. I looked high and low, in cupboards, under the stove, in drawers, in the couch, the toy boxes- you know EVERYWHERE! Yesterday I am cleaning out the UPPER kitchen cabinets and I took out a jar that has cookies cutters in it----and there were my keys! The monkey somehow got on the kitchen counter, put the keys there and got down within 5 minutes time. Crazy kid!

Our upstairs toilet has been clogging for the last month or so....we thought it was because Joshua flushed a HUGE wad of TP or wipes. Well, DH was determined to get it unclogged once and for all yesterday and augered it 8-10 times....he felt something come up and thought it was just a huge wad of paper so he stuck his hand in the toilet (eeww) and, it wasn't just paper- it was a Star Wars action figure! Mace Windu to be exact! No wonder the toilet wouldn't flush properly.

Two years olds...what are you gonna do except laugh?

I can LOL on this thread. My ds is 2.5 and our toliet would not flus. we had to turn the water off finally to it. We used a snake , then an electric snake and nothing. It would not work. Finally dh and a friend removed the toilet and found a 2 nail polishes (they were my dd's small ones) and a piece of wood. He has written on all of our doors in the house with a sharpie marker that dh left out. I could go on and on and on.

We have several walls decorated with Sharpie as well....lovely artwork. Picasso in the making.

I have a 6 year old son as well, and he just wasn't this mischievious! This is like a whole new world for our family...I think the craziest thing DS6 did when he was two was putting a pen in the VCR.

Ah yes, but as others have said - wait until he's 3! Everyone talks about the "terrible two's" but we found three to be so much tougher! (we called it - 2, with an attitude!)

When DD (soon to be 5) was 3 she wanted to see what was inside the back of the toilet. Somehow she managed to get the back lid off and it dropped to the floor without breaking any part of her body. The lid broke tho and of course you can't just buy a lid - you have to buy the entire toilet! So if you're ever in our upstairs bathroom and you're wondering why the lid is broken, that's why!

When DD was 3 she also got into a jar of purple nail polish and "painted" her brand new bureau. She also used permanent markers to draw all over our dr wallpaper.

The stories go on and on. Yes, 3 is an adventure - hold on!!

I have 2 and 2.5 year olds and it is amazing the things kids can do in a very short amount of time. One little girl threw a block in the toilet today and tried to flush it down, I had to retrieve it , And I have had to search the room dozens of times searching for things that they have hidden.

Or sometimes cry. If you would like three more to keep Joshua company, I would be happy to oblige
