Monsters Under My Bed

I try. Really I do, but I am thoroughly outnumbered. Today I was cleaning my room (mostly folding clean laundry) and figured maybe I ought to clean out under my bed while I was at it. It was amazing. I might regret doing this but I decided to share what I found there with you, my readers. Please don't judge me too harshly--I am the mother of four small boys. Enough said. And now, without further ado, my list of what I found when cleaning under my bed:

1. 1 Little People Robin Hood Play Set
2. 1 BYU Nerf Basketball
3. 3 Grandma's Cookie Wrappers
4. 1 Fork
5. 1 Handheld Electronic Game
6. 1 Lipstick (sans lid and sporting an embellishment of lint)
7. 1 Petrified String Cheese
8. 1 "That's Not My Monster" Board Book (see, I told you--monsters under my bed)
9. 1 Large White Eraser
10. 1 Teething Ring
11. 1 Card Stock Punched Star
12. 1 Chair Leg (yes, you read that correctly)
13. 1 Bandaid Wrapper
14. 2 Pieces of Sidewalk Chalk
15. 1 Pair of Plaid Boy's Boxer Shorts (clean at least)

17. 1 Ghirardelli Chocolate Square Wrapper (empty--dang!)
18. 1 Large Plastic Peach Yogurt Lid
19. 1 Clean Dry Yellow Washcloth
20. 6 Unused Diapers

22. 1 Brown High Heeled Shoe
23. 1 Packet of Hot Chocolate Mix (opened but not empty)
24. 1 Gallon Capacity Ziploc Bag
25. 4 Kleenexes (crumpled, but they don't appear to be used. Fingers crossed.)
    
26. 1 Valentine (to: Joel from: Alice)
27. 1 Green Plastic Baby Bead
28. 1 Yo-ho-ho Pirate Pencil
29. 1 King Leo Peppermint Wrapper

31. 1 Tropical Fish Magnet
32. 1 Silver Hoop Earring
33. 6 Legos
34. 1 Half Eaten Sucker
35. 1 Yellow Platic Ikea Cup
36. 1 Small Desert Dish (with some unknown substance coating the inside like cement--at least it wasn't fuzzy)
37. 1 Plastic Bag (in which our new phone book was delivered)
38. 1 Plastic Hook (like the kind that pairs of socks hang from in stores)
39. 1 Crumpled Piece of October Afternoon Designer Paper (I was mad about that one)
40. 1 Horse Shaped Animal Cracker
41. 1 Granola Bar Wrapper
42. 1 Fuzzy Piece of Scotch Tape
43. 1 Spray Container of Hand Sanitizer
44. 1 Kashi Zesty Sundried Tomato Snack Cracker
45. 1 Scrap of Blue Polka Dotted Ribbon
46. 1 Flosser (like for your teeth, you know)
47. 1 Scrap of Torn Wrapping Paper
48. 1 Alka Seltzer Cold Medicine Wrapper
49. 1 Frosted Mini Wheat
50. 1 Q-Tip (probably a rogue one from when Daniel dumped out 700 of them all over my floor)
51. 1 Blue Plastic Lid to a Can of Roasted Almonds
52. 1 Rubber Band
53. 1 Felt Snake (this little guy has made an appearance in one of my Tabblos before)
54. 1 Small Piece of Black Pipe Cleaner
55. 1 Black Ink Pen

So yeah. That's it. I hate to find out what's under Joel's and Nate's beds. :D
