Mother of the year

Immersed in my breakfast and morning reading, it took awhile for me to realize all was quiet. Not a good sign when you have a 13 month old. I  looked up, only to discover that Rigg was nowhere to be seen... or heard. I got up and quickly found my son in the bathroom.

With his hands in the toilet, splashing merrily and smiling as if this was one of the best things he would do all day.

I cannot make up my mind which is worse... splashing toilet water with his hands, or drinking from the dogs water bowl...

Either way, I should be getting my award in the mail any day now!

LOL It is ok mommy I have a few of those awards setting on my shelf as well. I have baby #3 on the way and have had quite a few miss adventures in my 5 years of mothering! and I am sure there are many more to come.
I have been following your blog for over a year now and for the life of me I can't believe that Rigg is already 1!
Thanks for sharing you life with all of us. It is quite a blessing to me and my family.

Just wait till you hear the toilet flush and then get to spend the next 10 minutes figuring out exactly what got flushed. Joyous times, I tell you.

the bathroom is the favorite room of our little miss. she LOVES to play in the toilet. we have to remember to keep the door and/or the lid closed!

That's better than splashing in the dog's water bowl and drinking from the toilet!
