Too messy for me

This room may look completely messy, but trust me, this is nothing! This is what Sophia's room looked like after I let the two tornados loose for 6 minutes. I just stood there and watched it happen. Usually I'm right on their heels picking up as quickly as they make the mess. Imagine what her room would look like after 30 minutes if I didn't clean up after them ASAP.

The other day I was hanging clothes up in Sophia's room and the tornados put every single thing in Lilly's room into her crib. We're talking every single thing! Even her baby doll crib. As a side note, I was hanging clothes up in Sophia's room because she changes clothes all day long and piles the cast always up in a heap. There are clean clothes all over the place. (I didn't dare that a photo of that disaster.)

I don't mind that she changes clothes at least 4 times per day, but I do mind the mess that it makes. And it's usually closer to 8 times per day, but if that's what she wants to do to exercise her creativity then I will oblige. I'll be happy when she can clean up after herself and until then I bet I'll be spending the majority of March hanging up clothes.

Actually Sophia either changes clothes all day long or she finds one particular fancy dress and dons it for days. Yesterday and today she's been wearing her purple party dress. I let her wear it to church this morning, but not to Riley's 3rd birthday party this afternoon. She was completely mad at me and she put it on as soon as we got home.
