They just keep getting smarter

The dauntless duo go to bed at 7:30 each night. We follow the same routine. We change diapers, put on PJ's and get milk in sippy cups. Before they climb into bed and get their milk, we say prays and tuck them in. Upon exiting the room, we have our routine security checks. 1. Remove all toys from the room. If toys are left, they will play. 2. Make sure the lights are unscrewed. That is correct unscrewed. We tried taping the light switch, but they pulled the tape off. So I unscrewed the light bulbs so they cannot turn the lights on. 3. Completely close the closet door. The closet is where we have their two dressers. The door has a child handle on it. This prevents little hands from turning it. This solution has worked for months and we have been very pleased with it until tonight.
Keli finished folding some of the boys cloths. Since it was 9:30, she thought they would be asleep and could sneak in and put the cloths away. When she approached the room, she noticed light coming from underneath the door. ARGH! She called me from the office. Opening the door, we found our wonderful sons in the closet.
They wanted to help mom put away cloths so they completely emptied out their drawers. Under the pile of cloths are their pillows, comforters and blankies. I guess we need to get some straps so the dresses wont fall on them.
Aren't they just adorable! Notice the laminate floor? Their room is the only one in the house that has that. That was specially done for them, to make "messes" easier to clean.

I love it! I'm so excited that you decided to do a blog. I laughed so hard! Sorry, I'm guessing it's funnier for everyone who reads it, than for you two who get to clean the messes. They are awesome though.
