Some days, it is a good thing they are cute

They look cute and innocent. Don’t let those cute faces fool you; these boys know how to make some pretty major messes.

Over the last two and a half years I have cleaned up some pretty major disaster areas. Charlie once dumped an entire box off food coloring all over himself and Noah. On one trip home from Georgia we had to pull over into a dollar store parking lot in back-woods Louisiana and just throw away everything Charlie was wearing.

Thing have been spilled on the floor, smeared on the walls, dropped in the toilet and thrown up on, and I have cleaned them up without incident.

Tonight I tackled the worst mess ever to clean up.

Last week I was working on a project that I used a hot glue gun for. Somehow the boys got hold of a glue stick and threw it in the stove. I didn’t see in when I turned the oven on, resulting in a thin layer of hot glue all over the bottom of the stove.

It took me about two hours using a razor blade and a lighter to get the mess up. I have several blisters and a few small cuts on my hands.

I know as they get older the messes will probably get bigger.

I hope they stay cute.
