I like to say, "My floors are clean enough to eat off of." But what I really mean is that food gets spilled/dropped/abandoned on my floor often enough that you can always find something to eat if you're looking. And unfortunately, it's pretty close to eye level for my youngest. I can relate.

Lol. I love the way you write, it´s just great. Made me laugh (quietly because the kids are both asleep) and that´s always a good thing. My oldest, 21 months, has a thing for milk powder. He will find a can that once held milk powder or formula and sit there and dig out the powder and eat it. That doesn´t sound bad until you realize that sometimes the cans he finds are, ahem, a little old. Like 3 or 4 months. With spiders and leaves in them. I don´t know where he finds them, I do wash the old tins out most of the time, but there you have it. Boys eat gross stuff. And I don´t think they usually die from it, so it´s all good!

I so relate - having a boy I've learned to just look away. I'm not sure if a dog gobbling up the goods quickly is better or worse than the hair on food syndrome.

And I just have to say I WANT A SHARK! My living space in our home is all tile. Sounds like it would be perfect for me. And my vacuum is on it's last leg too. How funny.

LOVE IT!! Thanks for the tip. My daughter seems to prefer eating off the floor. She won't seem to eat much when sitting at the table so I feel your pain.

I have 3 too and just today I was sweeping up crumbs from my kids crackers and had to kick it into high gear because my one year old kept going to my piles and getting the food that I had swept up and eating it! Thanks for giving me a good laugh. I can sooooo relate to this!

Kids have a way of helping us grown-ups not take ourselves too seriously. Picture the stuffiness associated with a business meeting or corporate merger- then picture your Cheerio incident. Classic.
