mine has been to the tub 4 times today! she made a past out of baby powder and hair jell and asked me why I thought it was her and not daddy! She ate a pice of pie I was about to take a picture of wile I was geting bateries...(I took the picture anyway it is cuite)she rolled in mud at grandmas house, and needed a bath after helping pick blueberries.she is sleaping now so I think she is done with baths for the night. Tresure this and add every moment you are stuned over to the photo album so you can show there kids what they were really like....

That's soo funny!! When my son was little and he had a bath I always would put baby powder on him. Well, one day we had a fish fry, flour, cornmeal, etc. After dinner, before clean-up, went into FR to relax for a couple of minutes. Realized I hadn't seen son. Went into kitchen and he was about 1 1/2yrs at this time. He somehow got the flour bag down and was sitting in the cornor rubbing flour all over him. It was absolutely everywhere!!! :lol: :lol: I gave bath while ex-H got the shop vac!! What an ordeal!! :lol: :lol: Still can picture this!!

LMBO I give him an A for effort :D:D:D

Give up. Give up now. Two years later and I am still cleaning up drywall dust from our remodel. Still mad at DH for not springing for the negative pressure system.

at least he didnt lie about it my 14 year old is my compulsive liar he would have looked me straight in the eye and said i dont know mom this is also the child who at 2or 3 dumped an entire container of baby powder all over the bathroom...try cleaning that up! oh and how about the time the 2 older ones decided they needed to see what the stuff in a fire extinguisher looks like needless to say took forevere to clean up have fun with that flour lol gotta love boys!

Many years ago, as a tired single mom who had
laid down for a nap, I felt a little hand lifting my
eyelid and one little 4 year old calmly saying to
the 5 year old, "Let's not tell Mom the gold fish
don't like corn meal."

Of course that woke me up instantly...the gold
fish bowl was half full of corn meal, with a rather
bewildered fish trying to avoid the new little
mountain in his bowl.

Then there was the time they were fighting and
burst a bag of pinto beans, and a tired mommy
told them to pick up every one of them. The
last one of them was picked up but the garbage
was already taken out, so the oldest, at 5 years
old, didn't have a pocket so of course stuck that
last bean up her nose. A couple of days later it had
swelled up so I took her to the doctor, who
removed her swollen and starting to grow bean
at great expense...

Ahh, kids. The further back things happened, the
more fun I remember having.

that is why we have used blue board & plaster....no sanding!! just prime & paint.

Oh my! My husband and I chuckled with you. I hope you were able to hold it in while your little guy was telling you it was all okay!!! I have tiled countertops too and the best thing I can suggest is to use a toothpick or shishkabob stick. Sorry, don't have anything better that won't damage the seal on the grout. You have to give him credit though, he did try. But I'm sure he will forever remember you don't clean up flour with water.

Me, too! One of my favorite memories is of a then-6-year -old daughter (my second one) who came home from a field trip to the zoo and proceeded to tell me (in front of Grandma and Uncle) that she had seen an a**hole at the zoo! I nearly died laughing, but what she meant was that she had seen a donkey (jackass)! I don't tell that story often, but it's a precious memory for me!

Naw just leave it. It will eventually clean itself up. :XD:
