Bailia's batting 1000...8/13/2009

After not sleeping last night I just wanted to CRAWL into bed and sleep tonight! But my name is mom, and with that name, what I want doesn't happen very often. Bailia said she was going to put some powder in her undies-hurry I said, I am going to start reading the story. She took longer than she should have, so I started reading to the boys. When all of a sudden I hear Adam in the other room saying-Oh my living Bailia, what are you doing??
Apparently if a little bit of powder feels good, a LOT of powder will feel REALLY good! After vacuuming, and mopping TWICE I took a picture of my grout. Lesson learned-powder does NOT come out of grout! It will be MANY mops before my grout is clean! I can barley breath in my room there is SO much powder on my carpet! Oh the joys...
Also, remember the new do? Well it turned in to more of a problem than we ever could have imagined! Bailia had secretly vacuumed up all of the WET doll hair! Just in case anyone wondered-wet doll hair and vacuums do NOT mix! We found out tonight that it had clogged my central vac. I thought something was "wrong" with my vacuum. Adam had called the repair man, I had bought a regular vacuum to get me by until mine could get fixed. Then with a little investigating tonight while cleaning up the POWDER, we finally found the clog! What I am holding in my hand is maybe 1/4 of what we got out! It was disgusting!
