BEN-JA-MIN!!!

This is what happens in my house when Ben is allowed in another room by himself for more than 2 minutes. Chaos. Notice the oh so cute little footprints? The good thing is that food coloring doesn't stain everything, the bad thing is it does stain some things... for example, skin. This was 2 days ago and his foot, toenails, hands, and lips are still stained!

And this is just the latest thing he's gotten into... over the past month, he's squeezed all the toothpaste out of the tube all over the bathroom floor then tried to clean it up with clothes, he drew on himself with Sharpie, he colored on the wall at his Grandma's house, squeezed lotion all over my bed, dumped laundry detergent all over the floor at his Grandma's... twice, "cleaned" the toilet seat with hand soap, and I can't tell you how many times I've found him playing with toilet paper... IN THE TOILET, and as if playing with it in the toilet isn't bad enough, he really enjoys eating it too, all soggy. EW is the understatement of the century!
