payback's a.........baby

This is me getting into my moms makeup.
As I am constantly reminded by my mother, I was an absolutely naughty baby/toddler/child/teen. She just laughs with a evil twinkle in her eyes every time my daughters do anything remotely reminiscent of the things I pulled.

The other day I was letting the girls play unsupervised in their room, while I caught up on some reading in the family room, when I heard:

"Mommy, Elli's handing me to many wipies."

So I go and investigate to see a package wipes that I had just opened the day before more than half empty with a mountain of wipes next to it.
Me: "Trinity, why did you let her do that?!?"
Trin: "My book got dirty, so I had to clean it."
Trin has a great imagination, and the book was not dirty she had wiped her book with every wipe Elli handed her. Even though I was able to salvage the wipes, I was far to irritated to take a picture.
This morning however, I was able to look at the funny side of a similar situation and snap a couple shots. Luckily she only got to empty one box of cereal before I caught her. :)

These girls are gonna be trouble!!

cute girls...
yeah, so i've pondered the idea of slipcovers for quite some time, but we had them when i was single. As good as they looked for the first day, it just wasn't worth the CONSTANT STRUGGLE! Honestly, houses get disorderly enough without another ridiculous thing to fix.
And i actually got rid of 3 pairs about a month ago - it's just hard to tell because i still have a lot. i really had ridiculous attachment issues to them.
