Roundy Round - Part 45

Collin continues to wear us out with his obsession to put EVERYTHING in the dryer and want to "wash clothes". My attempts to wear him out or distract him so he will not think about it have failed so far. This afternoon after the birthday party we went to (see the next post), he proceeded to put everything on the second floor into the dryer. Here is a list of what I pulled out when he finally took a nap later this afternoon:

• toilet tissue he unwound
• picture frame from the bathroom
• two large couch pillows
• one small couch pillow
• two bed pillows
• two couch throw blankets
• his stool
• toy tractor
• baby blanket he uses at school
• crib sheet
• his shoes he wore today
• four plastic grocery bags
• paper towel roll
• his medal he got from gymnastics class today
• two balls
• two stuffed animals - piglet and monkey
• wrapping paper - yes, you read that correctly!
• 21 toy cars
• sticker from going to Kroger this am
• a balloon
• telephone from the kitchen

While he napped, I cleared everything out and installed a toddler gate at the entry to the laundry room (no, we cannot shut the door because the laundry equipment is too big. That would be an easy fix until he figured out how to open the door.


Let's see how he reacts when he wakes up.....
