Decided that the car was getting to the point that it needed to be deep cleaned! Three kids + one busy mom = disastrous van! I can finally see the floor again and had to list exactly what I found in my car so that you get a vivid picture of how bad it was:
1 hairbrush
8 hairclips/rubberbands
2 Empty tupperware containers
5 sippy cups
4 plastic water bottles
1 Ice pack
8 shoes...some matching, some not
8 socks...none of them matching!
3 flip-flops
2 pairs of soccer cleats
2 pairs of soccer socks
2 soccer balls
4 shinguards
1 soccer banner
3 folding chairs
1 umbrella
1 stroller
1 blanket
3 pairs of pants
1 shirt
4 books
1 sticker book
5 coloring books
2 mini dry erase boards
7 spiral notebooks
1 pair of kid scissors
3 crafts from church
1 game for leapster
1 screen cover for leapster
NO leapster
4 stuffed animals
1 kids digital camera
1 toy sword
2 toy snakes
3 cases of wipes
2 DVD cases...one without the DVD in it!
3 booster seats
1 baby carseat
Things that were too numerous to count:
goldfish crackers
pens, crayons & colored pencils
change
chuck e. cheese tokens
Bless you if you got through that list. Everytime I clean out my car I swear that I'm not going to let the kids trash it again...but somehow life happens and it gets pretty bad within 3-4 weeks. Now I just need to figure out how to shampoo all the carpets so it smells less like sweaty children inside *LOL* Guess nobody will be wanting to ride with me for a while.

Treasures untold! You have a lot of buried treasure in your car. NICE! Want to borrow my steamer?
I was planning on cleaning out my van today, too! Maybe we can compare lists! I know for a fact that there's a couple of banana peels in there...eww!
wow! i think that must be some sort of world record or something! let me know if you find the secret to keeping your van clean. i would sure like to hear it!!! :)
so glad we are all doing this momthing togther!
I felt like the list was like a bad version to the 12 days of Christmas! I kept humming in my head! That's what I go through all the time. Don't spill your food in the car... Don't take your shoes off till we get home...Bring your backpack in the house....Pick you your papers... Does that sound like you?
dude that video was AWESOME!
I loved the video and the list I have one and I have only one child and he is only 1 year old.
