Domo arigato, Mr. Destructo

If there was a contest for how quickly a small child could destroy a small house ,my son would win, hands down! All it takes is a short visit to the facilities for him to find something he shouldn't get into and completely create a disaster. And the thing is, he knows what he should and shouldn't do because many times he will try to close the door and say "Go away, Mom" if he knows that there is something in the room that he wants to get into. I have learned this by making the mistake of actually going away for a few minutes when he has done this.
Sometimes I feel as if poor Sean gets gypped in the attention department since we spend all day cleaning up after Seth. Remember when the tasmanian devil would turn into the tornado and deestroy everything in his path? Well, that's Seth.
Boundless energy with no where to burn it off since it's 120 degrees out. The kid would end up with heat stroke after 5 minutes.
Anyway, we did all go to Mamaw's on Friday evening and ate roast and mashed potatoes. Seth and I really enjoyed it. Seth and sean also played pretty hard and slept wonderfully that night. We probably wore out Mamaw, but she enjoyed seeing the boys. She wants to see Sean more because when he doesn't see someone in a period of weeks he gets shy when he sees them again and cries.
Sean is trying and trying his hardest to crawl he rocks forward and back on his hands and knees, almost like he's building momentum, and then he lurches forward to move. And then does his half drag/ half army crawl thing. Hey, it seems to work for him.
Boys are hungry, time to feed the starving boys, you'd think they never ate before by the way they carry on!
