Doodie, Maeve, Michaela, Mama and Car
It's hilarious and bewildering all at the same time. :)

the cleanest kids on the block
A couple of days after that dinner, I was sitting in the living room working and Maeve came out to me and said "Mom, look at my face!" and she was caressing her cheeks, which I noticed had a film of some sort on them, and she reeked of fruitiness. I actually thought she had gotten into Michaela's chapstick, which she has been known to do and to destroy. I got up and followed her into Doodie's bedroom where I see what has really happened.
They had gotten the little bottle of hand sanitizer and a tupperware bowl (thank the Lord) and proceeded to dump the whole bottle into the bowl. Then they were smearing it all over their hands, arms and faces. Yay! They smelled like that stuff for two days afterwards, I swear.
And to top it off, like two days after this incident, I was in the bedroom on the computer and on the phone with my sister when I realized that it was too quiet. So I came out into the living room to find Maeve and Doodie with the Bath and Body Works hand soap and they were pumping it all over the top of Maeve's potty chair and rubbing it all over. Luckily I caught them before it got too out of control, and I don't think anyone ate any of it. But geez!
Even though Maeve and Doodie fight, I can see that they are also going to be fabulous partners in crime.

Dude Polly Pocket
Plus, he's obviously not cut out for the whole matchy matchy thing. What's up with those boots?

Maeve and the Butterflies
Maeve grabs her laminated sheet after we walk in.
She spies a butterfly on the ground and gets down for a closer look.
Wait, not close enough. I'd better get closer... There. Now we're talking.
Then, as we're walking along a little later, a butterfly lands on Maeve's shoulder. So I tell her to hold still so I can brush him off without hurting him. She spies him. She FREAKS OUT.
All she could say after the horrible butterfly incident was "Let's get outta here Mom! Let's get outta here!" I honestly never thought a little butterfly scare her so bad! But we left and she calmed down. Poor Maeve.
I think the parents in there thought I was a heartless freak because I pulled away from her while she was screaming to take a photo. But it was too hilarious. I couldn't NOT take a picture. :)

Who new laundry could be so FUN!!
Why can't I love laundry so much? It would make it less of a chore and we might actually have clean clothes once in a while! :)

How to make sure you don't get any work done
After about 20 minutes I gave up. It's now in shambles in the middle of my floor.
*sigh*
