I was nursing the babies (of course) and happily rejoicing that I have two little boys that are SO sweet and good at entertaining themselves that I got an extra hour of sleep this morning after breakfast. When.... Jacob, my little informer, came to my door and said, "Mommy! Bray just spilled the Koo-Fun Panda cereal on the floor!" (Kung Fu Panda was on the box.)
I thought Oh, it's probably just a little bit. Braden likes cheerios. So, I responded, "Okay, just don't step on them."
A few minutes later, I hear giggling and Jacob comes back. "Mom! He dumped the whole box!"
Ever wondered what it looks like when you dump a new box (minus one bowl) of cheerios all over your family room floor? Well, here ya go!
I couldn't decide whether to be livid or just laugh. The boys got time out, of course but it didn't seem to really sink in. So, I figured I might as well get out the camera.
At first Iwas hoping we could salvage them so I asked Jacob to help me clean up. However, when I saw him pick one out of his toes and put it in the box, I realized salvaging was not going happen. Luckily Jason has a shop-vac, as our regular vacuum cleaner is pretty wussy and started to smell like burning rubber after a few swipes.
Oh well, I guess I'll just need to put the cereal away from now on. At least I got that box for less than a dollar with coupons and my floors are nice and clean now!

Hahaha!! Your boys are so sweet! Oh, I'm sorry they made such a mess but glad you can look at it and smile! I bet they loved seeing all the 'snacks' on the floor and crunching them under their feet. Good job getting the camera out and sharing. Love it!
hahahahahaha! We laughed so hard! So typical of boys to have fun with whatever they're doing! Good on you, Lisa, for choosing to see the funny side of this mishap!
