Mess. Mess. Mess.

 

 


I have to document things like this so that I can look back and see that I've made progress....hopefully :) Caleb loves to play outside A LOT. So that's where you can find us when he's awake. Unfortunately, it leaves the house a bit of a disaster. or it could be a huge disaster...... With Matt working on house remodeling projects all the time I don't have the back up help to keep things under control. It might make a difference that I let the kids get messy..... just look at Caleb. He had a great time in that mud though. That means I spend valuable clean up time - cleaning kids up. Dishes can only be done when Caleb is sleeping because he pulls everything out of the dishwasher....knives first, of course. Or he pushes me away from the sink and clings to my legs because he wants to go play outside..... So for now I do the best I can and try not to get too frustrated about the fact that it doesn't look like I did ANYTHING that day.

A very wise friend of mine said the trick is to pour some bleach down the sink drain about 5 minutes before Matt gets home. That way although the surface of the house looks dirty he thinks you've been deep cleaning ALL day. BRILLIANT, I tell ya! :)
