A raccoon got in....

The Mess....

The culprit....

The story....

Lucas and Lila have both gotten some nasty sleep habits as of late. Lila has been waking up numerous times during the night, keeping Matt and I up as well. Lucas has been waking up earlier and coming into our room to watch cartoons. On this particular day, Lila was up so many times I lost count. We were SO tired. Lucas woke up about 6:30 (not terribly early, but after a night like that, it was too early!). Since we can't sleep while he is in our bed, I (yes me, I am taking the blame here) decided to have him watch a show on the couch. I turned it on, I got him a blanket and drink, and I went back to bed. Next thing I know he is waking us up an hour later (don't know how we didn't hear him the whole time) and he is covered with gooey stuff. And saying he is eating cereal on the couch. So we went to see. Here is the list of things he did: got into Lila's thermometer and probe covers (opened every one of them), into the butt creme, into three different kinds of hydro cortisone (both kids have really bad skin issues), got into a BIG tub of vaseline (enough said), opened a box of cereal (more like destroyed it), got into strawberries and cream oatmeal and ate all the strawberries from it, poured an entire container of saline solution into the vaseline. I keep finding little greasy hand-prints in random places throughout the house. Needless to day, we will not be doing that again. The pictures are terrible, I was laughing to hard, I about peed my pants, so it is very blurry. :)
