If ever there was a justifiable cause to actually kill the kids

I just pictured white bunny prints all over CP's carpet.

I'm saving this comment for use in the future.

Agreed. In a situation like that I think there is no choice but to laugh. Getting angry won't help. Leave an open can of paint with what looks like a two year old and a baby, and what do you think will happen? I would definitely have grabbed the camera.

We had something similar, but not as bad happen. We were rushing around one morning getting ready, not realizing that we had left a tube of red acrylic paint on a low shelf. Indi was two at the time and did what any two year old would have done in that situation. He squeezed it all out onto the carpet, then rubbed it all over himself. Luckily, we had some really good stain remover and the carpet came out ok. We made sure not to leave paint down again!

I threaten death daily, it usually goes something like this-

Me - do that again and I will kill you.
Munchkin - I'll tell Dad
Me - How are you going to tell Dad you'll be dead?
Munchkin - oh

I would have taken photos if she had done something like that, then killed her.

We have conversations like that all the time, Katiesue.

I say "complainers will be shot on sight". If I happen to shorten it and say "complainers will be shot", my 4 year old always adds "on sight?".

She also once asked, in all seriousness " you wouldn't really do it would you?"

My dad's favorite line, stolen from Bill Cosby: "I brought you into this world; I can take you out, and make another one just like you."

Wow that picture... umm..... I guess that's kids for ya.

The couch I can forgive (slipcovers!), but OY the TV! Actually, on second thought, paint thinner can save the tv, the couch and floor are destroyed!

I'm tired of being "taken" into someone else's fake drama just so they can get some publicity. I don't believe that this happened in reality for an instant.

Me too.

If my little brother did that, no one would be running to get the camera, and even if they did, there's no way in hell the mood in the house would allow smiling.
