Well today I found the solution to my problem.... or so I thought!!! I remembered that I had some shorts for Ty that were overalls. "Great," I thought, "That should keep him from getting that diaper off!" WRONG!!!!!!!!! He quickly discovered after a little bit of boredom that there were some snaps at the bottom... (easy access to the diaper for a parent... not meant for children, right?) that didn't matter to Ty... it just meant another primitive attempt by his mother had not out-smarted him and so he undid those snaps and removed his diaper as usual! UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really thought I had him this time!! It is really sad when you can't figure out a way to keep your 2 year old in a diaper... the other clothes stay on as long as they don't prevent him from the real goal of removing his diaper! Well back to the drawing board.... there must be some way to triumph... did I just make a plea to out whit my 2 year old??? :'( Wow... the rewarding opportunity of Humility that Motherhood has to offer!!

Head over Heels...
Ty is so funny... and his dad is just as funny! He wants to put Ty in Gymnastics.... so he was teaching him to do a somersault... I actually think it would be wonderful to have him in gymnastics... my only concern is that he will get new ideas of how to make more trouble at home... climbing up stuff with new strength! I will be excited for the release of energy though! That boy is like a mini generator!
Anyways... I thought this was a cute video and it was so funny because he rolled across the room every time as his big finish! He really is CUTE and SWEET... just BUSY, CURIOUS, and CREATIVE as well!

Not too Much!
Mmmm... So tasty!
So Wednesday was a pretty boring uneventful day as far as Ty goes! He stripped naked a couple of times but you know... it sort of is the "Same Ol', Same Ol'" by now! ;) Isn't is sad what adjustments we add to our schedule or list of just "Whatever" and continue on as if it is no surprise! I can't wait for the day when that is no longer a "moving on" issue to be dealt with!
So I did snap a few shots of them last night as we were eating our dinner... he eats pizza like this every time he has it... I am curios why... maybe so the real flavor reaches the tongue immediately... I thought he was cute... and pretty silly!
Of course Caitlyn wanted me to be sure and catch that she ate it the right way!!
We were naughty and got Pizza... the kids LOVED it! I had a couple of pieces and so did they and they managed to finish it off without leftovers!!! What a treat!

Crunchy,Stinky, MESSY!!!
So this morning was crazy! We were running low on food so I ran to the store (ALONE) :)! When I got back I gave Ty some cereal (frosted mini wheats) and he had some ritz crackers while I was gone. Then I went to work in the kitchen for a few minutes and kept an eye to see if he was eating his food and if Caitlyn was eating hers. Soon it was time to get Caitlyn ready for preschool and I had to walk through the living room and it was just GROSS!! Crumbled crackers all over the place! And little bits of mini wheats that were gooey (from his spitting his water out after sucking it from the spill proof bottle). 
The crumbs were covering the floor, the TV table, and even the TV buttons had crumbs stuck in around the gaps!! He really had done a number on the room with junk, too! So I had that to clean up. Then he comes to me missing a diaper and we put that back on immediately!! Shortly after that, it was time for Caitlyn to get in the car to go to preschool. As I walked pass Ty I smell something HORRID!!! Oh... he's poopy! So I ran Caitlyn out to the car and buckled her in real quick and came back into the house to attend to Ty... and what did I find? My worst thoughts becoming reality! He was waiting for me at the front door crying that I had gone out without him... and worst of all.... HIS DIAPER WAS MISSING!!! :( So NASTY!!! (I will spare you some of the grotesque details) I grab his wrist and walk him through the house in search of the wipes to clean out the remaining POOPY mess still dangling between his butt-cheeks (and to make it a little more nauseating... there was this poopy hair dangling out from the PooP glob in his butt!)! Then he shows me his poop covered hand and after wiping up the mess a little he was hauled off to the tub for a major wash down!

What a little STINK in so SO many ways I can't even describe! After that the house had a really bad lingering stench that took some time to pass... so there you have it... that is how Ty made our living room Crunchy, Stinky, and Messy! I can now say that it looks nothing like this... we'll see how long it lasts!

Mondays, Mondays!
So this morning Ty woke up at the usual time of 7am. We head downstairs to start on our day. (Me on the couch trying to get a couple more minutes of sleep and the kids watch a couple of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episodes!)
Well I was a little more ambitious today than usual because I started breakfast by 8am (rare!) and they had PANCAKES yum yum! They ate up their food excitedly then were back to playing and creating messes, etc. Well I got Ty dressed then was sitting in the living room helping Caitlyn with her Conference Packet from Sunday and Ty was in the kitchen... ALONE! Never a good sign... I have to put up a gate because he just won't stay out of stuff! This occasion was not any different than others.... Ty comes running back into the living room after a minute and smells sweet and is STICKY!!! Well anyone could have guessed it... He had been playing in the syrup! GRRR!
Please PLEASE ignore how messy my kitchen is! I had to clean it all after this anyways so I guess it was a motivational act!
(Don't you just love the "Who Me? What?" Look??)Creative Reasoning!
So I write lots of Post on my personal blog about the trouble that Ty gets into! And I thought to myself... "There should be a whole separate account of what he does EACH day for others to read if they would like!" That way the posts on my main blog won't be completely focused on his mischief and mayhem that sometimes comes along with him! So ENJOY! There are more shocking things to come from him I am CERTAIN of that!!!
