So I had everything ready two beautiful children one in just pants the other in her diaper, paper down to cover the table towels ready to paint.
They each made a beautiful handprint/pokey finger towel for each grandma. I wanted them to make the aunts one but they were getting bored. In the time it took for me to grab a paper towel from two steps behind me my kitchen and bathroom where covered in fabric paint.
I grab them, strip them and throw them in the tub still covered in paint. Ds2 starts squirting some paint on his arm with his bath toys. I don't much of it. Mom calls I have the phone with and start describing her paint covered grandbabies to her, when I notice a bright red spot under the paint on Ds2. Everywhere the paint was he is bright red!
The water is full of paint. Dd1 is covered in paint.
I scrub off the remaining paint, yank them out of the water, pull the plug on the tub, run to the kitchen for cleaner and cornstarch. Clean the tub with wet shivering children splashing the the puddle they made. Fill the tub add the cornstarch and re-bathe them. He says "that's better mom."
Then I hear lunch boiling over.
Ds2 is fine so far, DD1 no reaction, Dd2 just wants the boob, house is re-picked up.
We've also had two accidents on the couch, two escapee cats, trashed living room, and they striped their sheets. I love being a mom, can I have a nap?
