Seriously, the magnitude of messes that can be created in 2 minutes never ceases to amaze me. I'm thinking of writing a rating system similar to the Fujita Scale for tornadoes.
My first mess I would rate a F3 for messiness, but a F5 for shock. Jolie in my bathroom drawer, both hands in the petroleum jelly, all over her face, clothes, hair, the cabinets, and floor. What? How kids even get into these messes I don't know. Actually I do. I left the room for 2 minutes, she was in the closet so I thought I was safe, but really I should know better. I had to stick her in the bathtub while I cleaned up. Dry paper towels work best, but everything still looks slightly shiny, and her hands and face are weirdly water resistant, even after warm water and soap.


Olivia's mess involved puzzles, tangrams, the Othello game and a deck of cards. She has never gotten into our game cupboard before, but there is always a first time and this is typically the result. I said, "What are you doing?" and she simply replied, "Mess."

How innocent she looks now, so deceptive.
Actually, the sunscreen tubes have me a little worried.
Where did they come from?

Austin looks so OLD in that picture! And they're all so cute! I think water-resistant Jolie should have her own super-power television show!
