s/o unsupervised kids...

s/o unsupervised kids...

What's the funniest/scariest thing you found your kid doing after leaving them unsupervised?  And as we tell these stories, lets just put a blanket statement out there that yes, our kids are MOSTLY supervised, but sometimes you just gotta pee or leave the room for 3 minutes!

 -When he first learned to climb, after leaving the room to go to the bathroom, I returned to find him on top of the tv stand hugging our flat screen.

-Yesterday, while I was putting B in his carseat, I turned around to see A pulling the salt for our driveway out of the bucket and tossing it on the floor.

-And today: As backstory, I allow him to stand on a stool and play in the bathroom sink with cups while I make breakfast in our adjoining kitchen.  I can see him while he does this.  But then I heard him saying, "Drinkin! Drinkin!" I turned around to see him pouring entire cups of water over his face and mouth (and mostly on the floor).  I have to admit, it was hysterical.

  • Miles definitely gets into my jewelry sometimes and parades around the house. He also got into my lipstick once... haha. 

    The best was when we got home, and I turned around to find him with a HUGE wad of toilet paper (picture a looooong trail leading to the bathroom). I was about to yell at him for it until I realized that our dog had pooped while we were gone and Miles was going to try and clean it up himself! Sweet boy.

  • I let C play with watercolors at his little table while I was making dinner one night.  He's right there but all the sudden I hear himself, "mmm, it's good!" to realize he's finishing off the cup of watercolor water.  Thank goodness that kids paints are non-toxic!  I think he thought it was juice.  :-/

  • Licking a Renuzit air freshener that was Raspberry scented.

    I was changing DD's diaper in her room & DS ran off to his room. Next thing I hear is "Mmmmm...niiiice! Berriesssss....gooooood!"

    So I run in to see he had pushed his stool over to his built-in dresser drawers, climbed up the knobs, a-la rock climbing style, & got to the air freshener on the built-in shelf above.

    He was wiping it with his finger & then licking his finger when I ran in.

  • Oh, and how could I forget the eating glass incident? But alas, he actually was being supervised at that time...

  • Last night I went to check on Brooklyn after putting her to bed and found her putting lotion "diaper rash cream" on her legs, arms, and face. That was a mess it we almost the whole tube.

     Brooklyn told me she was hungry so I was making her some mac & cheese turned around and she had climbed the front of her high chair and was standing on the tray.

    At daycare they put B on the toilet and when they came back she had unrolled all the toilet paper  and tried to flush. THey spend 20 minutes unclogging the toilet.

  • Ah.. Need a book to say everything.. But one of the REALLY cute things he does is to go into the bathroom either fake sneeze (mostly) or really sneeze, take out some toilet paper blow his nose and tuck it between the cracks on the toilet seat,

    You may wonder why he doesn't open it, and it is because he is not allowed.

    One time I were in the kitchen, and he walked in the bathroom (he does that sometimes to look himself in the mirror or fake wash hands - or to play with his bath toys). Well, this time I heard splashing and joy - so I ran in to find a big smile in J's face after he had washed his hands in the toilet.. Long story short - I thought him to open the crane on the sink.

  • We have steps for our small dog to use to get on our bed and if A is left to her own devices she will usually grab that and use it to climb on top of our dresser.

  • One day I found him on the fireplace mantle and another time he scaled a doorframe to get to the one and only lightswitch that didn't have a cover (not sure why...we've since bought a cover...)  He's brought me a Cutco knife (super sharp!) and a pair of scissors before. SCARY!  I pulled a quarter out of his mouth once. And the other day DH and I were both in the kitchen (where we could see him!) and we looked up to see him about to put the metal end of a pair of headphones, the jack part, into an electrical outlet that we had just used so the child plug was out of it.  He also tried to run away from me and was about a foot from the busy, busy street the other day.  Sigh.  He will be the death of me. I swear he's mostly supervised too...he's just FAST!
