Being the Mother of Tytyn

This is Tytyn's best little buddy whom he named Mator (from the movie Cars)
We actually also have Mator's sister whom Tytyn loves even more. Her name is Matilda.
He gets along with them really well and loves to be outside playing with them
all the time!
Being the Mother of Tytyn is honestly the best job EVER! But I'm not going to lie, there are days that I find my blood boiling, I want to pull my hair out, and I look at him and think what am I going to do with this little guy?! I wouldn't trade him or having the privilege of being a Mother for anything though. I've been trying to take more pictures of the funny situations he gets into so that I can remember them and hopefully laugh about them later.
This day I was in the shower and apparently the fruit bowl was not enough out of reach. He had opened 4 bananas and eaten halves, thrown some away and had fun smashing one and then left some on the counter for me to find. He also rubbed his banana hands all over our BRAND new sectional that had only been delivered and set up and hour earlier. Fortunately I caught that in time and was able to scrub it out.

This was a day I found my blood absolutely BOILING! I was inside stripping the beds so that I could wash sheets and I could hear him outside just laughing and having a grand old time so I let him be for awhile. Well I kept getting that motherly instinct to go and check on him and so I finally did and this is what I found. This is not even HALF of the damage! He had thrown handfuls of dog food EVERYWHERE!!! It was all over the car and in every little nook and cranny of our garage. It took forever to clean up and make sure I got every little piece so that we wouldn't get a mouse infested garage.

  
This little boy loves to help with anything and everything. This was before we moved into our house.  We had to  cover everything with killzprimer because the lady we bought the house from had cats and at one point a big dog in the house. We couldn't believe how bad the house smelled of cat and urine once she was all the way moved out and wasn't there to spray her febreeze anymore. But after lots of killzprimer, paint, and all new carpet there are no more nasty smells!!!




And for all of you that keep telling me to post pics of our house. Don't worry they are coming! All I have to do is upload them from my other camera which has been out of commission for awhile, but is working again.

  2. All those times I came unglued as a mom (way back when) are really funny stories now. You need to save these pictures and stories for later laughs.

  3. It is true that little kids get into trouble faster than we expect. But I am glad you find humor in it too. Kids are just curious!

  4. Sounds like Tytyn's doing his job well of keeping you on your toes. I'm still anxiously awaiting pictures of the house...

  5. I wish I would have kept better track of all the times YOU kids got into things. Some of them are quite funny now, even though they weren't then. Love you, Mom
