You are HILAROUS! And so is that little criminal of yours. Funny now, but I know all too well the rage. You were so good to just grab the camera. My girls dropped a similar bomb once, but only a few days later while pulling the flower out of the cupboard, I dumped it all over myself and the floor. Awesome.
The only bombs I've been getting lately have been of the gastric kind. Flour stinks less. ;) crazy what kids will do.
Hahaha!! He looks so pleased with himself!
Darling post. That cute little fiend! I think Matthew and Leah hold world records in how quickly they can wreak destruction.
They sure to have a special gift for mischief, don't they? LOL!!
Bonnie,
This has happened to me when Isaac was a toddler. The worst part was that he did it again a week later LOL!
Ack!!! But... that grin! Seriously, if you survive the stunts these two pull, you can survive anything... ;)
This was so funny because it's happened to probably all of us mom's at one time or another!
