Reasons My House Looks Terrible

If only H's puzzles looked as neat as this.  And if only he had one - just one- with all its pieces.  And don't get me started on the ones that make noise when you place a piece correctly.  Okay, I'll start - they talk to you even without the correct piece placed; in fact, they don't need a piece at all.  It's some poltergeist shit, let me tell you.
You might think why does this girl have army men, Henry might choke on them, they aren't educational, blah blah blah...you also might think about biting me.  He has a ball with his little green guys.  And I let him.  But damn do they hurt when you step on them.

This picture is not representative of the sheer amount of large legos, blocks,shapes, etc. etc. that are strewn about our home.  

We do not have a complete alphabet set in any capacity - fridge magnets, flashcards, block letters.  We might have one complete set combined.
Mardi Gras, how I love thee.  But why does your cheap crap remain with me all through the year?  So endearing in the moment.  So annoying later on.

Things I need for my sanity:  Toys with parts that stay in place.  Imagine that.

  1. Oh my god, the puzzles that make noise! Total poltergeist... M's will go off randomly and it's especially creepy when they go off late at night!

    M doesn't have army guys, but he loves Hot Wheels. We've had to take a few out of commission because of foot injuries. No joke.
