Literally.
Actually, it would be lovely if something would get in the toilet.
This is mostly the story of me being a volunteer sanitation worker. You’re welcome to not read it.
I love being a stay at home mom. I really, truly do. I love that we got to spend an hour at the park this morning an come home for icecream cones. I love that my kids can play in the back yard in the middle of the day. I love being around for every first step, first word, and so on.
I just never realized there was going to be so much poop. Soooooo. Much. Poop. And floor scrubbing.
This all happened within the past 24 hours….
We came home from school supply shopping to discover there was doggie diarrhea in not just one, but several areas of our house. Yuck! So of course I cleaned the floors.
Penny had a diaper incident that included major on the clothes leakage.
Nicholas pooped on the potty! (Yay! this is always a big deal, still, because little dude has major GI issues)
Said bowel movement clogged toilet.
The toilet then proceeded to overflow all over the bathroom floor. So I cleaned the floor again.
After I cleaned that up, I brought Abby into the bathroom to go potty before nap time. I pulled down her Pull-up and guess what dropped right out onto the freshly cleaned bathroom floor? Yes. More poop.
So I cleaned the floor again.
After nap time Abby wanted to go outside to play, so we went to get a new Pull-UP and she peed all over the living room floor. Then she stepped in it. Then she started walking. Then I had a bunch of tiny pee footprints to clean up. So I cleaned the floor AGAIN.
It was worth it for moments like these
(Let that be a lesson to anyone who makes me scrub their bodily fluid off my floors twice in one day, I will post your cutest/most embarrassing naked baby pictures on the internet. And it might even be worth it.)
Too cute! 🙂 Just a heads up, it would help to clear first the hanging towels inside the bathroom, and then, scoop the excess water from the clogged toilet, and leave a couple of inches at the bottom. It would serve as the water pressure to remove the clog while plunging. If it does not work, an alternative is to use a snake or closet auger. These items have corkscrew that could make its way through the pipes and pull out the cause of blockage.
