  • LOL! Thats cute. I remember when my son was about 3. I was cleaning the living room. I noticed it was quiet. I went into the kitchen and my son had spilled the powdered chocolate milk mix on the floor. But he thought he was being helpful cleaning it up by spraying Windex on it and trying to wipe it up. Chocolate footprints all over!

    Wanna hear about my day? Its sure to make you laugh.


    My 4 year old daughter and 2 year old son accidently spilt some popcorn on my shag rug watching TV this morning (no school for her today). So I put them in her room so I could clean it up before my son had a chance to step on it and crush it into a million peices. Well all is fine until I started vacumming when belt on my vacuum burns and I have to use the hose to finish cleaning up, which took forever.

    After I was done I flipped it over so I could replace the belt. Well, I didn't have an extra, but I noticed that there was an exceptionally large amount of hair around the brushing device so i decided to clean it. But first I check on the kids, they were fine, room was still fairly clean, no one hurt, diaper clean.

    Since I didn't have an extra belt I took it outside on the back patio and I cleaned the brush off, and went to get them out of the room. It took maybe 8 minutes. I open the door. What do I see? The toy box was dumped, the room was trashed and there was a nasty smell permeating from somewhere and I couldn't find my son. He had taken off his diaper and SHIT all over the floor and then preceeded to PAINT the wall and surrounding toys with it. My daughter was making vomit noises and covering her mouth!

    SOOOO.. I put him in the bath tub, clean him off, run clean water for him and leave him in there to play (right across the hall) while I cleaned up the shit. I found all the toys, soaked the plastic ones in bleach water, threw the washable ones in the machine, and went to get my son out of the bath, only to discover that  he had put a WHOLE roll of TP in the tub with him. WHEN? I don' know! I was in there SEVERAL times to check on him and he was playing away with his bath toys. So i clean that up by 'fishing' out the floating TP with a collander. I rinsed him off, re-washed him, and put him in HIS room to play while I flipped the laundry.

    You know how long it takes to put some laundry from the washer to the dryer, and start the load, a minuter or two at most... so I go back in his room to find that hed BABY powderd the WHOLE THING!!!!!!!! IT was EVERYWHERE!!!!!! He had to CLIMB up on top of his dresser to get a hold of it because it was on the shelf that is above MY head!!!!!!!! So it was ANOTHER bath for him!!

    Remember now, my vacuum has no belt so how am I going to clean up the baby powder mess????? Luckily I have a carpet steam cleaning machine and used that to clean up the baby powder from the floor. That still leaves me with yet another load of laundry to do.

    Ok so things settle down, i get everythign cleaned up, and we play a couple games before its time for me to cook dinner. Well I put on A Sound Of Music for the kids while I cook, because they both love it and it keeps them fairly occupied. All goes well. We're eating, the phone rings. Its my neice calling from Ohio to talk to my daughter. While I am answering the phone my son decides to dump his BEEF STEW onto the freshly mopped floor, and all over his twice bathed self. So he gets yet another bath and gets into yet another set of clothes and then is pretty calm for the rest of the evening before bed.


    Got to love them 'terrible twos"... aghhh


    Laugh with me now. I'm sippin a margarita!



    It's amazing how people don't hold themselves to the standards they set for others.
