All in 15 minutes!

It all happened when there was less then 45 minutes to get us all to Tanner's first soccer game.
MARISSA!
Okay so here goes. I am at the sink doing the dishes (killing a little time till we have to go). Somehow the fridge was left open after someone put something away (JD). Next thing I hear is a kind of waterfall, turn around and the whole (FULL) orange juice pitcher is spilling all over in the fridge. OH I HATE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. Juice dripping everywhere, into the drawers onto the floor -EVERYWHERE! I start freaking out and JD starts cleaning up. We take apart the fridge, wash everything out, pull fridge out, mop under there and then push it back. Then I start mopping infront of the fridge, orange juice is so sticky! Anyway as I am doing this Miss Marissa is watching me (knowing full well that the floor is slippery) - I know she knows! And just like that she takes a step forward, feet slip out from under her, she goes down. But she doesn't just go down she takes the bucket of ammonia with her. GREAT! So now by baby is covered in poison. Off to the tub (about 20 minutes till we need to leave). Fast bath - just wash her off. Get her out - the usual running away naked time! But this time she runs to the kitchen to see Daddy at the screen door. Next thing I hear is JD laughing and saying "you have got to be kidding me!" Yep - the the naked girl pees all over the kitchen floor! We just all started laughing. What else could this girl do? So we got her clothes on and said "Don't move off this couch." We couldn't imagine any more damage but we wanted to be safe!
So there ends the saga of the Marissa accidents. We still got to the game on time and Tanner scored 10 goals. So now we can laugh but wow what a few minutes we had yesterday! We love that girl!

I so hear you on this one. I think it is physically impossible to get my house clean all at the same time. When I leave one room to do another, the kids go in, and by the time I'm done with the second room, the first looks like I never touched it. I think I'm going to surrender.
