Why are there army men in my underwear drawer?!

My husband and I really enjoy an orderly home, but you have to let a lot of things go when you're a parent of little ones.  I have enjoyed some humorous scavenger hunts for treasured items around the house, and you never know what you're going to find!

For example, I have three forks in the bathtub, an easter egg in the kitchen sink, cheerios in my pocket, pajamas on the front porch.  I have found a turkey baster, vacuum cleaner extension, and pipe cleaners (all used as makeshift swords) inside the van, as well as army men in my underwear drawer, golf balls under the couch, and a spaghetti colander in the bathroom.

Life is never dull around our house! I have learned to keep close tabs on the important things (mainly, the blankeys, pacifiers and the children of course!).  I'm sure I will miss these scattered days, but I don't think I will ever get used the feeling of stepping on a lincoln log or giant magnet barefooted in the middle of the night.
