10 Minutes

Just look at these sweet little boys!  They would never do anything wrong, or get into any trouble...right?
That's pretty funny!
Only took a few minutes of "playing" in the dirt in the canyon to look like this!  :)  But I'm not here to write about that...I have something even better!  And this being my journal, I need to jot it down while it's fresh!  I wish I had my camera near by, I would have taken a picture of the toilet, but then I thought that would have been gross, so just use your imagination.

Time 6:50pm
Last night I had a Relief Society meeting.  I was getting myself ready to go, I had bought a pizza for the kids because I was going to eat at the activity.  So, I heard a door shut and just assumed the boys had gone into the girls room where Jeni and my niece Paige were changing.  Just a few minutes later I went to check because things were too quiet.  What did I find?  The boys were in my bathroom...let the fun begin!

First I notice that they had each taken their pizza from the table and it was now in the toilet.  On top of that...they had dumped an entire box on tampons into the toilet, and unrolled half the roll of toilet paper all over the floor.  I noticed Julian had ditched his diaper.

I hurried and got the boys out of there and back into the family room.  There was a garbage sack in the kitchen that I grabbed that had some random trash in it and the rinds from the watermelon I cut up the night before.  I fished soggy pizza and tampons out of the toilet and into that trash bag.  I picked it up to take it out to the garbage can and as soon as it lifted off the ground the whole bottom of it ripped out!  Nasty garbage now spread all over the bathroom floor.  I was so mad, this was a heavy duty plastic trash bag...I bought costco brand this time...and the 2nd half of the box have been horrible....like almost to the point of returning them, because I keep having bags rip out in the bottom.  Anyways, that's another story...back to the fun!   I got all the garbage picked back up off the floor and into a new, hopefully not gonna break, bag.  Then I cleaned up the soggy pizza that had somehow gotten on my skirt.

I run back into the family room to get the boys changed and get out the door.  Only to notice one last surprise for me..Julian, the diaperless boy, had pooped on the floor.  Oh yay!  Luckily it was on the kitchen floor so it was an easy clean up.  

It was now 10 minutes later, quite eventful.  I loaded the kids into the car and we were off!  I just sat there and laughed.  Life is just grand sometimes!

It was

That is so good you can just laugh about it. I am a little more high strung - especially if I am supposed to be somewhere I would get upset and stress out about it. But one thing that I have (and am still learning everyday) and especially with twins that we need to just chill and have fun. It sounds like you do an amazing job at that!
