What do you get when you leave a 2.5 year old alone with 1) a desktop computer; 2) a cup of water; and 3) a pencil?
A NEW KEYBOARD ONLY ......if you're lucky.
Well that is the situation Mommy and Daddy found ourselves in last week when we were having a "discussion" - Mommy wanted to rest and Daddy wanted Mommy to get up (we both lost) - and Matteo was conducting business in the office at Daddy's computer. Now I could tell you how I prompted Daddy many times to check on him, play with him or even "what's that noise" (him putting the pencil in the glass of water), but i'm over it now. However suffice it to say, the keyboard wound up with water on it and Matteo is not quite as computer savy as Daddy as he used pencil on the monitor as opposed to pencil to paper. But in the end EVERYONE lucked out: 1) Matteo got to continue living with us; 2) Daddy only had to replace the keyboard ($50); and well i'm sure i've slept between then and now. :-)
I hear ya with not ever being able to look away for 1/2 a second. Katelyn loves to color in the coloring book but if your not right on top of her she's coloring the couch!! HeHe!!
