22 May 2008 Why is it that…
 |  Category: @HOME, Madeline

…..everytime I get the children clean, they do something to get themselves dirty almost immediately?

I gave the girls a bath this morning.  Then we had breakfast…scrambled eggs…one of their favorites. (Yes I remembered to put butter in the pan Keith).  I go to pop some more toast in the toaster and I hear “HAT. HAT”  which only means one thing…Madeline is wearing *something* as a hat.  I turned around and the entire plate of scrambie eggs is on top of her still wet and very clean hair.  Ugh.

I think I combed out most of it.  The doctor will just have to deal with a kid with eggs in her hair at her doctor’s appointment.  I guess she gets another bath after naptime.

  1. I believe you have to give up and know that they are clean for a 5 minute window and the rest of the time they are building up their immune systems for kindergarten :)

  2. This is why I bathe Katharine right before she goes to bed. That way, I know that she’ll be clean for at least 8 hours every day!

  3. I’m in the same boat as smurray!
