Today’s game: How you might know your baby is now a toddler! (OR: Can you guess where I found the item in the feature image?)
Here’s how we play!
Round 1: Parent takes the coffee to play the kids, keeping it up high and generally out of reach.
Round 2: The Once-Baby-Now-Toddler STRIKES while the parent is still under-caffeinated!
Round 3: Parent takes a drink (sip or slug, depending on which cup # this is!) of coffee and an object strikes the parent in the teeth!
Round 4: Parent spits out coffee and for a frightening moments wonders what on earth was in the coffee pot that is now in the previous cup of Joe.
Round 5: Parent swirls (or drains) the cup and discovers…A TOY.
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to secure the valuable and anything that may fit down the toilet.

I love a good (retrospective) laugh at what kids will do. What’s the craziest thing your kid ever put somewhere inappropriate (or flushed)?
Thanks for sharing & happy trails! 🙂

LOL! I have pretty good odds guessing! We’ll have to make that an after-dinner game at the next family gathering. 😉

This weekend, my son tried to put my phone into the dog’s water bowl, luckily he was a bad shot and I was able to scramble over before round two.

Yikes! Thank goodness he’s a bad shot! I’m very wary of the phone or my watch ending up in the toilet. Little Man also threw his toy phone in the laundry basket yesterday. Good thing I heard it clunk into the washer (and it’s fake)!

LOL! That’s hilarious! Little man loved to splash in the toilet when he first figured out standing. We had a urgent foot-down situation with Big Dude about flushing EVERY time!!

That’s hilarious – and I can definitely relate. Hang in there!

Thanks, Amy! I’m wary of him getting into something we will be very upset about getting flushed…my oldest never went for the toilet, but this dude strikes me as the type who will…

But what is that thing? The worlds smallest lime popsicle?

LOL, that sounds delicious, but no! It’s a piece from one of the new Lite Brite toys. (Something that also shouldn’t have been in reach of the 13 mo old…fail, Mommy.)

Oh! That makes so much sense, but sounds much less delicious…
