Climbing Furniture (My Boys Are So Easily Amused. So Is Their Mama - LOL)

VideoAd by Mixpo

Now, imagine trying to edit video when all you hear is giggling in the background. Seriously! Try as I might I could never resist a good laugh, so off I go to see what the wee ones are doing. Sure enough, there are diapers thrown everywhere.

Did I mention EVERYWHERE? I think I did but it needs to be repeated because I'm not talking about a small box either...

The dresser draws are open and they have climbed them like stairs (Is it the Autistic one or the PDD-NOS doing the problem solving? LOL). Drats! My undies are out as well. Oh my word - Elmo in Victoria Secrets is not something a grow-up should have to be subjected to. Seriously! If I were a cartoon my eyes would be bleeding. What the heck were they thinking? Do my kids really think Elmo is not a boy? Where have I gone wrong??? Grover has been sporting my sports bra as well. What is up with that? That's not a hat! I know they're wee people with a sense of humor but this is just not right... There ought to be a wee people law enacted in my home against raiding the underwear draws of the sole lady of the home. I like Elmo! I love Super Grover! I grew up on S-Street! Dudes should be respected. They need to be in Batman briefs or something (LOL). I shall really have to work on them. I do not want their plush toys wearing my clothes. Those fuzzies have been dragged everywhere! I may have to microwave and bleach these for peace of mind... At least Step didn't float 'em in the toilet (LOL). Alas, the day is young... Who knows where our next minion conversation shall be about or going. ;-)

Hmm...

You should hear the giggles coming out of that room as I write this. I should have known there would a big be mess to go with the mayhem when I checked on them last time. I'm sending Daddy this time. I really don't want to know. Stephen is in naughty-laugh mode. It's not the same as his regular laugh. FYI: Click this link to hear a normal giggle, but I digress...

In this episode of the continuing saga of The Life of Wee People, The Little Minions are perched on top of the dresser with an empty diaper box having a blast. So off I go to get the Nikon to grab a little .MOV film on their latest furniture climb. Of course, that resulted in my boys gleefully saying "cheese," only to duck down and hide behind the box (LOL).

Seems they like teasing Mama when she tries to get a photograph. Oh well, I'll catch 'em off guard soon enough. Those are usually the best footage because you get to see a pristine minion moment... Did I mention they swing between being brilliant and absolutely crazy? They do, you know. That's what makes life so much more interesting. Doing real estate the minion way is mad fun. The spectrum is amazing. I shall save that for another blog post. Yes, there will be more film. I have a lot of film (LOL). BTW, we had a great time today touring neighborhoods. We didn't just film in Cambria Heights. We've been filming everywhere. :-)

BTW, Stephen, the Blur Minion is going to make a wee movie. What ever he shoots, no matter how crazy, we're going to edit into a one minute post. Yup. Little Minion TV is going to take a walk on the wild side with Cecil B Demented (LOL).

Oh well, enough said... time to get back to work. I've teased you enough for now. Will tease you again later. I've got film of Cambria Heights to edit and showcase. We will be posting a new tour of homes shortly. Minion style. :-)

C - I may have strange dreams with that image of Elmo in Victoria's Secret. Great stuff. Keep 'em coming!

C- My kiddos like to climb furniture too! I had to rescue my 20 month-old off the kitchen counter twice.... Off the back of the couch... off his dresser.... off my desk... and his dad's desk.... and then I heard him in the bedroom with a great big "crash!" and then another one. He proceeded to dump every last toy we own on the floor in one great big pile! Their toys needed to be sorted and their room cleaned, but I wasn't expecting it to be today. :-) Glad it's spring and I can get my little energy stars outdoors!!!!

Lindsey, I know, I know (LOL). I've been chasing them out of the house - even in the rain (LOL). Wee people have mad energy! My apartment is a perpetual wreck. There are toys everywhere (LMAO).

C - I soooo need to write a post. We were outside working this morning and the kids were playing in the car. Harmless, right? Uh, no. My three year old drew a "turtle" on the ceiling with a blue marker. Yeah, how do you get that off!?!?! And, they wrapped my metal measuring tape around all the carseats... hmmm. Sad thing was that I thought I was keeeping a good eye on them. Feelings of guilt hitting me hard! How do they come up with the ideas they do?

LOL @ Lindsey. I have plenty of those days. You should see what they've written on in my house. I wake up and sometimes discover they have drawn on me with magic markers (LOL). We will skip the info about the frig and furniture. The walls are ridiculous... I can't keep them white. :-)
