Who knew that laundry day was going to make my week!


Every Friday is laundry day at our house. (Well, ok most Friday's) I hate doing laundry, but you know, after the kids get peanut butter and jelly on every outfit they own it is hard not to do it. There is one thing, however, that I get a kick out of when I do laundry.
Have you ever seen the Simpson's where Homer and Bart put pots on their heads, and run down the hallway to see who can get knocked out first? Yea, this same type of thing happens at our house EVERY time I fold laundry. I have these really tall laundry baskets and the kids put them on their heads and run around and knock each other over. I think this is SO dang funny! The best part about it is that this is their time to play rough, no one cries, no one complaines, and we are all laughing our heads off! This is something that can change my mood anytime! I love my crazy kids!

Your kids must have the same effect on you as mine do on me! And as far as the poop thing goes, have you tried having your son clean it up? I did this with mine when he was 3 adn it grossed him out so much that he never pooped in his diaper/pull-up/underwear (or on the floor) again!

Hey, what's up with letting my nephew wear that color of blue? I need to get him a new laundry basket to wear.

Just wait until he figures out that he can put little sister in one and help her "sled" down the stairs.

Very nice! Laundry basket deathmatch! I remember doing similar things when I was a kid.

I'm sure they'll graduate from laundry derby to box slider. My kids used to do that and then they graduated (when their balance was a little stronger) to sliding down the stairs either riding in a laundry basket or on a piece of cardboard. You can still see the patched holes in our downstairs family room wall all along the stairs....everytime I see them I have to laugh....must be some reason I've not painted it yet!
