The Toy Bin with the Upset Stomach

"MOM! COME QUICK! COME AND SEE!" Hayden screams this from the other room.

"The toy bin threw up! See..."
See this is what happens when I don't let them watch TV.

And that's why I love Cartoon Network, and Nickelodeon, and the Disney Channel, and the DVD player...

Don't trip on those toys!

Have a great weekend!

Susie said...

Warning! Warning! Fallen toys lead to Falling Mommies!!!

Heather said...

Ah, yes. I know this well. You should see my basement. Wait...on second thought, no you shouldn't. It's a toy catastrophe down there.

Britt said...

You may want to just avoid this room .. that looks like a fall hazard for sure!

My girls love to do this WHILE watching tv. It's just great. Nothing's better than picking up toys with a Wiggles headache.

Jo-Jo said...

How funny...the toy bin threw up! Ha! Mine vomits several times a day. Sigh.

Cristin said...

BBB said...

Can I get you a shovel?

Shannon said...

I don't think a shovel will do it, Lizzy... this looks like a job for a bulldozer! HA!

(like I have any room to talk... this is exactly how our playroom looks... )

LOL, "the toybox threw up" that is hysterical.Not to mention that this looks like my living room 4 days out of 5.

Shannon said...

Oh, and you're thinking "no" on FOX's Hole in the Wall? It really doesn't take much to amuse me.

'Course... it could have been the wine talking last night...

my son asked me why he doesn't have a ride-on train w/ full track and his friend said "because you don't have my gramma."

Rhea said...

What a wonderfully creative and APT description!! LOL Love it. Great photo.

Jenny said...

YIKES!!!! I remember those days...wait...they're still happening. :(

CynthiaK said...

That's brilliant. I think mine has had a chronic vomiting condition that we can't seem to medicate...

Casey's trio said...

Looks like my front room. It really sucks that I clean it up every night just so it can look the same was 15 minutes after the girls wake up:(

Karen said...

That is really funny! Your Hayden is full of suprises. I wonder what it is that threw up in my house???

Nicole said...

Just let them watch TV. I'm thinking of starting a new campaign. "Mother's for TV." Wanna join?

Diana said...

I love that the triplets are all playing with the little play doorway/activity center thingy - in the picture they look like they are all just cooperatively playing with it, all nicey nice, sharing it and all....is that how it really went? :-)

Jacki McHale said...

Yes I too have noticed when I just can't take anymore of that damn whiny Cailu, the toys are just dumped out, and spread ALL over...at least you can still see the floor...
