Boy Mouths

Boy Mouths are used for many things. Here is an example of them being used as a vacuum:




What do you do when you spill some candy on the floor? Don't let it go to waste, just get your brother (and possibly the cat) to help you clean it up :) You can clearly see an example here of the difference between a new mom and a mom of four....A new mom would have gone running, cleaned up the mess, and possibly washed their mouths out from any possible contamination from dirt. A mom of four runs to get her camera and watches laughing knowing everyone has to eat a pound of dirt before they die (or so my parents said :)

Boy mouths are also used for hurting your sibling, especially when you are two. The biggest battle we have with the twins is stopping them from biting each other. I couldn't help but grab my camera at this precious moment of the big brothers examining the injury and offering comfort:






This week the boy mouths have been used to do a lot of whining, crying, and being irritable. Everyone had a hard time adjusting to Mommy being back at work and starting school and usual activities. We have some tired children and we are hoping a weekend of rest will make next week go smoother.
