Messy children

[twinsmom2005]

Well, good morning to me!!!  My 22 month old twins just got into the pantry, took out the bottle of black pepper, got the lid off and dumped it on the floor.  Of course I was in the other room.  I heard them both yelling, "Mess, Mess" at the top of their lungs.  I think they do these things sometimes just so they can wash their hands.  Thank the Lord for hand vacs.  Now when I get close to them I think I might start sneezing...lol.  I guess if that's the worst thing that happens today, my day will be just peachy!!!  They do keep me on my toes.  What fun!!!  Just had to share their first escape for the day.

Feb. 3, 2007 at 4:48 PM The funniest part is they like to clean up, too.  My daughter loves to "clean and help".  I love to watch the 2 of them putting laundry in the washer, from the washer to the dryer, the dryer to the basket, and help fold.  Housework doesn't necessarily get accomplished because it takes twice or three times as long with all my "help".  But it's such fun and I can CLEAN house when they get older and don't want to play with Mommy.  I LOVE my job!!!

Feb. 3, 2007 at 5:22 PM I was upstairs and Winter was 4 or so and she got powdered sugar and tried to feed it to barney on tv. I had powdered sugar everywhere and I tried the vacum it up and the powder was so fine that the vent just shot it back out into the air... GOOOD GRIEF!

I swear that is the way twin moms look at things like that "well if this is the worst that happens today"  I've had children with Nes Quik all over the floor and these Black Beards and hands from eating it, once when twins were 2 and again this past summer with my 2 year old.  White Pepper in carpet smell lingers for awhile after vaccuming it up.  I had a my daugther at the age of 3 seal her eyes shut with A&D and it was all through her hair, that took a week to come out of curly hair

And my favorite.... Thanksgiving am I'm awakened by my husband screaming panically "WHAT DID YOU GET INTO; WHAT DID YOU GET INTO" I leap out of bed in a panic myself now to see my daughter in the laundry area with SMURF BLUE hands clear up to her elbows and all I could think of in a moment was laundry detergent and then I took a closer look and there was pink and green on her too.     My husband likes making and decorating homemade sugar cookies for Thanksgiving every year and This particular year he got NEON FOOD COLORING    So the bath water instantly turned dark blue and it was still on her for a week and it never NEVER came out of the carpet.                                                                                   My mother cursed me with having children like myself and I'm still trying to figure out what the hell I've done..LOL

Mar. 15, 2007 at 2:29 PM I think our kids like to make messes, because they think we have nothing to do. Sometimes my kids make a mess and will clean it up, but that doesn't happen often enough.
