Well, if I was ever viciously attacked and kidnapped out of my home, leaving the children stranded, EZ would be sorely out of luck...but HY would do just fine. This morning I woke up at about 6:30 with EZ. After feeding him and putting him back in his bed I decided to skip the gym (alright, the gym was really only a fleeting thought that was quickly dismissed) and go back to sleep. I knew HY would still sleep for about another hour. So at 9:00 I wake up with a start: the baby is fussing on the baby monitor and....what?...is the TV on?
HY had woken up and:
1. Plugged the TV and VCR in and put in a movie to watch
2. Climbed up the shelves in the pantry, retrieved a box of cheerios
3. Climbed up on the counter (with the help of a chair) and got out a bowl which he filled with said Cheerios
4. Climbed up again and got out a sippy cup and lid
5. Got a full gallon of milk out of the fridge, put it on the table and filled his sippy cup
6. Replaced the lid on the milk and on his sippy cup
7. Put the cheerios back on the proper shelf
8. Got out a hand towel to clean up the spilt milk (when I got there there was only a few drips left and a wet towel)
When I got out to the living room he was sitting on the floor proudly watching his movie and eating breakfast. "I do it myself, Mommy!"
And all this from the man that somehow cannot figure out how to actually "go" when placed on a toilet. Hmmmmmmmm.

I'm glad you got some sleep. ;)
Seriously? That's out of control!! I love it. I wonder - how would you feel about me hiring him for some on-the-job training for my kids... Believe it or not, I really could use some sleep.
:) So funny. Really a classic moment. :)
I love that. HyGuy absolutely cracks me up.
This is too funny. I can't imagine Aden doing all that and Hyrum is only a month older. I guess I have a lot to look forward to. Thanks for sharing!
