Keeping it real

I cleaned my kitchen and did all of the dishes this morning. I know you don't believe me, so here is some photographic evidence...
Yes, I know my kitchen is seriously outdated. And yes, those are bright yellow counter tops. And did you know that I don't have a DISHWASHER? Life is hard here in Cakerwakerville.

While I was busy cleaning the kitchen, Porgie and Izzy were busy messing up the playroom. Here is some photographic evidence...

This is the reason my house will never be clean.

Sick of living in squalor, Porgie decided to take matters into her own hands...
She is so helpful! Kind of.

Speaking of Porgie, she has learned how to eat an apple like a big kid. Here is some photographic evidence...
Isn't that cute? Nevermind the fact that she is gnawing on the bottom of the apple.

Izzy has decided that biting mama while nursing is super fun. Here is some photographic evidence...
You thought I was going to show you a picture of my nipple, didn't you?

Because he wants his teeth to be healthy and strong, Izzy has been flossing. Here is some photographic evidence...
On second thought, maybe that is a USB cord.

Peace out homies.

I love when you have pictures. I promised Nora we would see some when I saw you had posted, and sure enough!

Too cute..

Awesome job with all of the cleaning!! The sink looked great!

And look at those little teeth coming in!! So cute!

Danielle said...

I bet a nipple shot would have made your blog traffic soar. I can just imagine the blog analytics on that one..and you thought had stalkers before! Your kids are so amazingly beautiful! Eliza has a crush on Izzy.

Mama Smurf said...

I think your children could quite possibly have THE most beautiful eyes I've ever seen on a child. Seriously! Gorgeous!

hahaha...I love the pictures...

I think my mom has the same countertops as you.

Man, those teeth do look sharp.

Porgie and Z would totally get along...if they could share the mop/broom/sweeper....he loves to do that too...and yes, he is kind of helpful(not really)

Just Jiff said...

OUCH on the teeth!
And who cares if your kitchen is "outdated" ? Just call it retro or something. haha!

I say the same thing about my house (that it will never be clean). I gave up a while ago. I can either put the legos away 50 times a day - or I can wait until the end of the day...

4funboys said...

I've given up on "clean"...

very sweet pix of your kids!

so many things you forget... but NOT them SHARP teeth memories--- no siree... them babies stick with you.

Kris said...

LOL - that's great!

I've been working on cleaning too... but you're play area looks a lot like my living room...

Oh and such cute teeth! We finally got past Kalila biting mine... She behaves while nursing now, but she's moved on to my leg and cheek.

Melissa said...

Just so you know...dishwashers are overrated.

No, really. We went several months without one, and our water bill went down about $20 a month.

Seriously.

Hey, your kitchen looks just as out dated as our is!!!

Amber said...

Oh how I don't miss not having a dishwasher! And those two little teeth, so cute!

TEACHBROECK said...

Funny pics!!! I do not own a dishwasher either! I bought one for about 30 minutes last year then made th hubby return it because I felt so guilty buying it! The one good thing about going back to school is that I don't have to do the dishes anymore!

Melain said...

Oh lord. I don't know why we bother cleaning anything. Those hurricane babies.
