this was just one of those mornings...!
Maddux LOVES to play in the pantry. He loves to pull things out and put them back on the shelves. He loves to dig deep into a box of cereal and grab handfuls to eat at a time. He loves to make a mess...and today was NO exception.
So, he tried to pick up a brand new- full (48oz) bottle of vegetable oil, which was obviously too heavy for him. When it slipped, it fell on the tile, lid popped open and a massively thick layer of gooey oil spilled everywhere. Yes, I believe that about 35 oz of this bottle was all over my tile. Where in the world do you even start with something like that? After a whole roll of paper towels and a LOT of Dawn, I think I got it all up.
I haven't seen a mess like this since my sophomore year of college when my roomies and I found a Costco size jug of liquid laundry detergent had fallen and cracked, spilling all over our linolium floors.aaahh....the memories! :)
Now I have a large amount of a box of Raisin Bran strewn all over my rug.
I will be investing in some of these today :)

This lock is worth the full $12.99!

You are soo funny! We've all been there! A
Lucky you. :) Reading that made me grateful that I caught Kaida opening the full bottle of vegetable oil in the bedroom before she got it all the way open. At least your floor will be nice & shiny now. :) (try mopping it with vinegar+water, that works pretty well)
oh my goodness! That story makes me cringe.
Seriously a good investment. Brecken is the same way. you get one mess cleaned up and on to the next one. Who needs a gym these days when you got a little boy around!!!:) So FUN!!!:)
I love it!!!Welcome to the terrible twos that sometimes starts early..
oh my gosh! I'm in for it! Kirra is already getting into everything! I will FOR SURE be buying a few of those safety locks! Oh I remember the day Brock "painted" ALL my Moms couches with the sams bottle of maple syrup. haha. That was funny! :)
AHHHHHHHH.......I AM THE BELOVED ROOMATE. Tarah, i remember that like it was YESTERDAY. i think we were late for work because it took us 5 years to clean up. so funny, i will be laughing all day. M is the most darling thing. let me him come to my house, he can make whatever mess he wants!!!
Oh man. I can't even imagine that much oil all over the floor. Good idea on the locks!
Tarah did you really know how to spell linolium, or did you have to look it up??? cause that one would have stumped me for sure! Sorry about the mess! WHen its that bad though, all you can do is laugh! :)
