So, I thought I would be cute this year and put a little more thought and effort into April Fool's Day this year. This deciphers down to........I actually got onto Pinterest before April 1st and copied some fun ideas! {wink}
Monday night I went to bed with a bit of a skip in my step as I went over my mental note of little tricks I had just set up for Sami and Hubs ~ I couldn't really think of ones for Kaleab.....however, now that the day is over, a bunch of ideas come to mind! Next year, Sweet Ka! Next year!
I laid my head on my pillow, with visions of trickery dancing in my head!
1. Cereal box bags switched all around......Check! {so they pour out a wrong kind of cereal}
2. Light switches taped down { so they couldn't turn on the light}......Check!
3. Vaseline under the bathroom door knobs............Check!
4. Saran Wrap over Big Brother's shampoo bottle, so it wouldn't pour out.....Check!
5. Saran Wrap over downstairs bathroom {where Dad likes to go in the morning since it's near his
office}.......Check!
6. Oragel deep into toothbrush bristles {numb mouth, anyone!?}.......Check!
7. Mustard squirted into the toothpaste tube......Check {after Sami left for school}!
Sami showed me one of the taped light switches the next morning, "Mom, look! I can't turn on the light in here! What is this?!?" To which I giggled and smiled. "Did you do this?....Why?!?" he asked, to which I explained through childish giggles that it was a day for pranks.
He then went to close the bathroom door, dousing his hand in vaseline. He quickly pulled his hand away from the door knob, "You did this too?!?!" {half smiling half looking confused} To which I proudly answered with a twinkle in my eye, "Yup! Gotcha!" He just smiled and shook his head. Oh! And, bless his heart, HE cleaned off the vaseline without any prompting from me! Sweet son! {Oops! I better give Jeff credit too, as he cleaned off the knob in his bathroom without my asking too! Progress, folks!}
They both caught on to the cereal bag swap before even pouring the cereal out. {darn it!} And the remainder acts of delinquency brought about a more chuckles as well! As much of a prankster, Sami is, it was totally fun trying to get him on this day!
The final joke ended up being on me, in that when I came to brush my teeth that evening, and hubs had put SOAP on my toothbrush in an act of vengeance! "Hey! At least I put things that actually go in your mouth ~ mustard, Oragel ~ when does anyone put SOAP in their mouth!?!? Eeeeewwwwwww!!!!" I even had an after-taste of soap following this morning's brushing {must not have rinsed all the soap out well enough}. Double whammy! YUK!
All in all, a fun-filled April Fool's Day! I even have ideas for next year ~ or sooner if I can't wait! Ya gotta love Pinterest!!!! {giggle inserted here}
