The Revenge of Liam

I finally bought a normal doorknob and baby-proof doorknob cover for the downstairs bathroom and installed it. Liam proceeded to do the following...

Pulling himself up and over the gate on the stairway he made his way upstairs where he raided the game cupboard and spread its contents on the landing. On the way upstairs he grabbed the wood ducks and took them to his room where he jumped on his bed and pulled everything out of the closet. Then he went into my room and unpotted my flowers spreading the dirt throughout the room. Next he raided Catherine's room where he went through the closet pulling down everything that he could reach and then he unplugged her night light and dumped it in the hall. Finally, I found him in the bathroom with all of the toys in the tub. (Thankfully with no water in it.)

Maximum time frame: 10 minutes

While I was upstairs cleaning up the mess...

Liam vaulted over the gate at the door of the den and ransacked the kitchen cupboards getting out a bag of chips and eating some and dumping the rest on the floor. Then he opened the dishwasher and took out most of the silverware and played with it.

Maximum time frame: 5 minutes before I heard the dishwasher crash

Also today:
- dumped over Catherine's 3 story dollhouse and used it as a stool to reach the lights in the living room and twist them upside down
- emptied a pitcher of water from the fridge all over the kitchen floor

If anybody thinks that stay at home moms have it easy I challenge them to watch my son for 1/2 hour. Welcome to hell.
