My messiest moment (believe it or not!) didn’t involve one of my four kids! It involved a gallon of milk that I didn’t know had a leak in it and then it tipped over and leaked all over my van. The stench was horrific and took forever to get rid of. Barf!

Oh dear – that’s terrible!!! We’ve had a 40+ ounce soda spill all over the seat and a soda can explode. Definitely messy moments LOL!!!

Thanks for the sweet comment Kendra 🙂

We had a whole 2 liter bottle erupt and launch itself on our ceiling, showering half of the car with soda. So fun! I’d almost forgotten about it.

Oh do you really want to know my messiest moment? My son filled his car seat with diarrhea on my way to teach a fitness class. Of course I had no extra clothing for him or anything to clean the car seat with. I found some children’s shorts & tee(3 times too big) in the pro shop for him. I had to buy 2 towels, one to clean up and one to place in the seat for the ride home. I did all this with 5 min to spare before teaching. I get my son into the kids club child care, I rush in to teach my class. I’m leaning forward doing a leg stretch and I notice poop running down my shin. Yep…..poop. I declared THAT moment the moment I really became a mom. Of course my son fell asleep on the way home is a soiled carseat. It was a bad day.

I think a better question is when DON’T I have messy moments. Right now I am wearing a white t-shirt stained with soupy water I spilled while cleaning out a pot this morning.

Oh dear…as someone fairly new to parenting I am grateful for generally well-behaved, clean children. Outside of messy faces and dirty hands, I have been relatively lucky…Then again, I have never taken a 12-hour car trip with them either…

Have fun!

OMG – yes!! My dog makes me crazy sometimes. We got new slipcovers and she is always jumping up and making a mess with her muddy paws. It’s a good thing I love her!!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Cheryl!
