Boys Will Be Boys

Let these pictures be a light-hearted warning to anyone who thinks parenting is easy.

Painted love: They look awfully proud of their handiwork, but who's going to clean it all up?

The little one is just hanging around

He thinks he may have cracked it

Can you dig it? One's in a hole lot of trouble - the other's lost his head

Safety first: This little guy is leaving nothing to chance

This chap is clearly born to be wild

Now let me see: Little boys like to take an interest in their surroundings

Now let me see: Little boys like to take an interest in their surroundings

My first model: One child tests her make-up skills on a younger victim

To boldly go: This youngster has a taste for adventure

Head over heels: The young man takes a tumble

He decides to examine the fridge

Splashing out: He's in for a real shock

Raiders of the lost larder: A hasty cooking project is interrupted

Canine canvas: There'll be trouble when she wakes up

Let me help you with that: A sleepy father gets a liquid boost

Watering the garden: These boys are just doing their bit

Have you got a frog in your throat? This youngster sounds decidedly croaky

What a lovely pair! This young man shouldn't be playing with his food
