drooling babies and messy toddlers | the kids ate my homework

This is one of the hidden truths about having babies. Everything you own will be covered in something that looks like a biology experiment gone wrong. There?s no point in using furniture polish, Lysol, Mr. Clean, or any other fantastic special purpose cleaner. I?ve given up. I just use Windex for everything.

Well, okay, I use the generic version of Windex because I?m cheap and need to buy it by the gallon. It?s my go to cleaner.

My other go to cleaner is dish soap. A little bit goes a long way and it?s great for getting crayons off of walls. Plus, your bathtub gets sparkly clean. It?s the only thing that works when the ring around the tub is from spaghetti sauce.

But all of my efforts to maintain a clean house can be undone in a matter of minutes.

Kids are just dirty in a happy active sort of way. More stuff gets dragged around the house from snacks, juice cups, outside dirt, etc. You name it and there it is. Sometimes, I?ll find snacks that got hidden somewhere looking like they crawled out of a petrie dish to their present location.

And when I find a bottle that is supporting it?s own environment, I just throw it away like the tupperware you occasionally find in the back of the fridge. Don?t open it, just toss it! It?s alive!

And now, Rainy is teething. Anyone can tell you that when babies start teething, they generate more drool than pee. Those bibs that you thought were for feeding time only become the only way that you?re not changing the baby?s clothes every 15 minutes.

The teething thing doesn?t sound all that bad right? Yeah, well Rainy is crawling now too. So now I have these slime trails where ever he?s been. Which is everywhere.

Not only does the teething make him drool a lot?and I mean a whole lot, he?s enjoying blowing raspberries so there?s an incredible amount of spit splatter on everything.

Do a mom a favor. Don?t visit a home where there?s a teething drooling baby and a bunch of toddlers running around. Our homes are not fit for visitors and there?s no way that you are gonna find a clean home. We?ll try to clean up even though it?s a lost cause. We?ll get stressed thinking that you think we are dirty. And, we?ll spend your whole visit cleaning every snack flinging, drool dripping mess as they happen in an effort to show you that we are trying to keep up.
