Captain Destruction

Last night Silas wouldn't go to bed until almost 10. He stood and screamed his head off in his crib every time I tried. So, since he was relatively happy to play by himself, I let him stay up. I was lounging on the couch, watching TV, when I heard rustling tin foil...



"Hey Mom."


"Oh, did I do that?"


And I guess I didn't clean it up fast enough. Next thing I knew there was about 5 metres of plastic wrap unraveled and twisted in such a way that it was totally unusable....

I probably should child-proof my kitchen, but when it provides him with so many hours of quiet play, the clean-up I have to do somehow seems worth it :)

Your still busy in those drawers eh Silas?. Is he getting up on his own more these days?

This post made me smile! :) What fun moments to look back to when we all emptied cupboards and drawers. Looks like he had a great time!

i agree, the clean up is worth the break for you!

In my opinion, that plastic wrap would've done the same thing if you or I had tried to grab a piece of it, and would've been wasted anyway. Don't know about you but I HATE that stuff. His cuteness was not wasted on the plastic wrap. ;) Good for you for letting him explore like that!
