Now that I have my own house and it's part of my daily schedule-I actually.......I'm gonna say it......love cleaning! I know, right! I don't like things out of place. I don't care if all the toys come out of Teigen's room as long as there's nothing out when he goes to bed. I like having a clean sink when I go to bed too. Those are the 2 major things.
In all of this, I have taught Teigen to clean. He's my helper. Since he turned 1, his main job was to put the clean silverware in the drawer and then I would go back and put them in the right silverware slots. As long as he put them in the drawer, then he did his job. He liked it and now he's wanting to put everything else away too. I love it. He's almost 21 months and he puts his dirty clothes in the hamper(when he sees clothes on the floor in our room-he automatically puts it in our hamper-no matter if it's clean or dirty) It's awesome. He also picks up his toys when it's bed time and puts them back in his room. Now I figured I'd let him help me with cleaning the bathroom. His job is cleaning the toilets...I know I'm mean, but HE wanted to! So after he cleans the toilet a little, I take the brush and go back to brush a little harder to finish.
Ummmmm......news flash mom........I don't want to be done cleaning the toilet and please give me my brush back!!! NOW!!
No one has taken the toilet brush from me to finish my job, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't cry. Maybe rejoice.
Teigen has taught me something though......When Teigen ain't happy ain't nobody happy!!
