Cleaning Up?

 Christian got out the Tinker Toys the other day; he can create some pretty cool things.  He seems to have an engineering kind of mind. 


You can't tell from the picture, but this contraption does all kinds of stuff; it has moving parts, things that can get shot out of it, and a way to keep it all intact when not in use.  He put a lot of thought into it.  I took a picture of it so that when I asked him to put it away it wouldn't be so hard; it would be documented!

I let him leave it up for a couple of days, and then asked him to put the Tinker Toys away.  This is his version of completing that task...

This is why it takes a long time to get any semblance of order/clean around here. 

I can't say I'm any better at the job.

Ok . . .how do you not have scratches in your wood floors? Mine are terribly scratched! Looks like he is going to be quite the engineer!

Oh, they're plenty dinged up...I'm sure we've done some of it, and it's an old house with lots of...character. :) That picture just happened to hit a pretty smooth spot. It's all an illusion, though. haha
