Hahaha! We call this "man-vision" at our house. My favorite example was when Mr. Blue was whining about not being able to find his phone charger for months...finally, I looked for it, and it was still plugged into the wall. Because the phone end had fallen off his dresser, he just thought it was GONE. Man-vision. I'm afraid your boys are suffering from an early version of it!

DH suffers from this syndrome!

I had this problem as a kid, I remember wondering how my mom was so good at finding things. Now I seem to have the power! I think you might be out of luck until the kids grow up...

My husband suffers from this too. Once you find a cure let me know!

No advice, but my husband is the same. He'll ask me where something is, I'll tell him exactly where it is and he'll come back complaining that he still can't find it... I'll go to wherever I told him to look in the first place, lift something up and voila... Not looking forward to adding a running inventory of all our LOs things to my already cramped head-space too.

@Mrs. Blue: This made me laugh!

I have this problem, I put stuff away so well I forget where it is. The most recent victim of this was my husband's winter coat. I just found it this week in the basement. When we went on a sledding vacation this winter, poor guy had to buy one from a second hand store just to have a coat on time because I insisted I would find it.

@jessiejo17: haha this happens all the time with us! He recently bought a new bottle of soy sauce because he swore we didn't have any. I go to the fridge, and there is a brand new bottle, already in there!

My husband has this same disease. I'm afraid it may not be that rare

@Coco Bee: they probably asked their mom's before they married us.

add me to the list of spouses plagued by this. my husband is the worst. sometimes if I yell back, "if I get up and find it, then no sex for ----" works wonders. It magically appears.

My husband does this too!! When we first started living together he asked where something of his was, and i said "how would i know??" and he said "my mom always knows!!"

UGH!
He has gotten better yet, because I won't help him look if I know its right infront of him. He literally says "i can't find it" as soon as he even heads to the pantry and hasn't even opened the door to look for "it"!
Must be a man thing! lol

this is the most hilarious thread! my husband suffers from this problem too...he'll go shuffling through our junk drawer for 2 seconds and move a couple papers around and be like, "have you seen this [insert random item]?? i can't find it anywhere" and i look, turn over one paper and there it is. ALL THE TIME!!! i find it so funny now.
