Okay moms, what has been your worst clean-up your baby has created for you (bodily fluids aside)? Tonight, I had my first big mess from Lyla. Story below...
Tonight as I was preparing dinner, Lyla decided she wanted to play in the pantry. Usually when she does this, she just likes to pick at the plastic of the bag of rice or hit it or whatever. So, she was doing this very thing as I went put some chicken in the microwave, just having fun, minding her own business. 45 seconds later the microwave beeps and as I go to grab the chicken, I see Lyla is sitting in a HUGE pile of maple syrup (see below)....
She had somehow managed to unscrew the cap of the 64oz jug of maple syrup and tip it over in just that 45 seconds. She wasn't even playing with it before! I am amazed. So, I called for Nate, took some pictures because although it was a pain, it was really cute, he grabbed her to bathe her and I cleaned the mess. I'll just say, that much maple syrup is not the easiest thing to clean up. I had to use a rubber spatula and a dust pan. I am just grateful she did not make it to the carpet!
Hope your day was cleaner than mine!!
