Perhaps it was the chill in the late September air that put the thought into their minds. Or perhaps it was boredom. Whatever the cause, my girls decided it was a day for making a mouse house. We spent several minutes rounding up supplies and set to work.
Soon we had a cozy cottage outfitted with autumn-themed bedspread, pillows, and rug by Malan, wall art and mirror, and a charming chandelier by Jane. . .
And a shiny red button side table. How quaint!
The girls invited in our first guest, a Ms. Ariel Karen Wilson. But to our horror she first proceeded to climb atop our dainty side table, knocking it to the floor!
Next, she snooped under the bed. . .
Then pooped on the rug.
(Which prompted unbridled laughter from Malan and Jane for the rest of the day. "Remember when she p**ped on the rug? Hahahahaha!")
(Which prompted unbridled laughter from Malan and Jane for the rest of the day. "Remember when she p**ped on the rug? Hahahahaha!")
And after all that, she tried to make a getaway out the back window without offering to pay for damages.
Thus she was quickly plucked from her perch and plopped back into her plastic playground, and the mouse house was promptly turned into a museum.

Wow, you're such an awesome mom. Did you hear the latest news? Yep, turn your clock back 5 years- I'm working for the Chadster again.
what a darling idea (minus the guest).
Wow. It's like Mrs. Tittle mouse or something. I think the guest is quite cute, actually. Didn't know you had a pet.
Way cute mouse. And I'm. Jack says, "I want a mouse for a pet." Our kids are so pet deprived. I'm so impressed with the girls young decorating tastes as well!
Ha, ha, ha! I was wondering if Ariel Karen was still around.
Well, I never!
And in such a fine establishment, too.
So cute! You girls always have so much fun. That looks like a house that I made for my trolls, remember trolls!?? That's a really cute mouse!
You really have a pet mouse?! I started reading thinking...no way, they made a mouse house and a mouse really ended up in it?! Very, very cute house. Fun post!
I thought Ariel was a gerbil?
Did you know I let Anderson and Lissa talk me into getting mice? They could climb in and out of their old cage at will, but now we have an aquarium.
And they were two bad mice, indeed, when it came to pooping in their hostess' house.
that crazy mouse didn't know how good she had it! she obviously doesn't recognize style - by the two top mouse house stylists in the country i might add. so, we found a rat in our rental and took it away in a cage and let it go in the wilderness. in the 5 min we had it, luke got attached and moaned all the way home, "mouse? bye-bye! mouse??? bye-bye..." i loved the storybook-type post btw.
That is seriously impressive. I love the thought of your girls giggling over p--p.:)
You really are an inspiration.
Ha, Ha, Kate, I want you to be my mom!!! You are so fun. If I tried that with Jakie the place would have had a cardboard exterior and a toilet so the mouse would not forget to p**p. Such funy differences between boys and girls. I am glad that you have the girl thing locked tight so I can get inspiration should I ever get one! I always Love the rainy day projects, dont you!
This is so cute. Totally made my day.
so fun! i love those girls of yours! all of ya :)
Maybe we should do that with our house.
PS This would make a great children's book. Pictures and text.
I especially love this post! So funny. I love that you caught Ariel in all those funny action shots.
Chloe made me read her this story again and again. Her favorite part? The quaint side-table. Oh, OK, it was the poop.
kate, you are stinkin' awesome! I love it! That mouse had no idea what luxury she had. i hope you don't save the poop in the museum.
