The Total Package...

Meet Paige...
Paige is a very good girl. She is well mannered, loves to help mommy around the house, listens pretty good most of the time, goes potty like a big girl, does not like to be dirty... my kind of girl.

Meet Matthew...
Matthew, generally can be a good boy. He eats like a big boy, loves to cuddle, doesn't talk much yet.. actually talks another language that only he understands, still in diapers (which that is soon to change), loves to make a mess and get dirty. He is my little cuddle bug, but I could really do without the messy kid in him...

Lately, Matthew has had this thing about taking off all of his clothes and diaper and running around the house naked... What is up with that!?
Well, this morning... that did not change. Paige again, notified me that "Mashoo dressed"... translation = Matthew has un-dressed. SO... on with a new diaper, new clothes... all good.

As I am about to take a break from work to go feed the kids lunch, Paige yells from the hall... "OH NO Mashoo tee tee". I get up from my desk, look down the hall and this is what I see...

WARNING: KIDS... DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!

A-A-A-A-K-K-K! YUK-K-K! No... no... no... this did not just happen!

I literally just stood there for a moment gathering my thoughts trying to figure out where to start. Bleh...

Put Matthew in the bath...

Clean the poop from the floor and the wall... Luckily we have a steam deep cleaner to get it out of the carpet... yuk! Paige was my little cheerleader while cleaning up this lovely little mess. "Good girl Mommy... clean the walls"... she makes me laugh when she repeats stuff like I would say it.
Whew... much better... clean floors once again. For those of you that know me well... you know how much I hate having a dirty house.

Matthew is all clean once again and things are back to normal. I think this shirt was made for him...

  3. I raised 4 boys. Don't know about girls, but when it's time to potty train, little boys do this.

    I remember well, putting them to bed at night with built up overalls on so I would get to them before they managed to take off the overalls. yuck..all part of being a Mommy!

    I couldn't help thinking when I looked at the picture, this boy will graduate someday and Mommy will be so proud!

  4. LOL Angela! That was too funny. I have two little ones myself, so I can relate. I don't know where I would be without my steam cleaner. Seriously, how do people clean up poop and other yucky stuff without one?! --Jen

  17. OMG! I so know what you have been through- only my little guy did it in the tub while having tub time with his sister-YECH had to re-bathe both of them!:( But I must say that I was laughing so hard reading your post! Thanks- I needed that! It also made me realize I was not crazy to be horrified when it happened to me! Thanks for sharing!

  19. Been there, done that...and it still totally grosses me out! I'm so happy that you have a carpet cleaner because I've cleaned up those things without one and it's just awful. Good times (not!).
