Aaahh the joys of living with little children. You wake up and don’t know exactly the kind of surprise you’re going to get that day–which little mayhem they will chose to unleash. Could they be plotting to destroy the kitchen? Give your dog a make over? Or are they planning to wreck havoc in the garden?

Whatever mischief they’re planning it’s best to be emotionally and mentally prepared for the worst, and keep your expensive plates locked up.

Here are photos of little children having too much fun at home that illustrate life with them.
