Bubbles, bubbles, everywhere!

The other day, the girls were uncharacteristically helpful in cleaning the house and afterward requested to play in a sink of bubbles. I agreed because they'd been so extra helpful. Little did I know the impending consequences of which I unfortunately did not capture on camera...

Here they are, patiently waiting for me to finish cleaning the kitchen so that I can fill the sinks with bubbles:




And here they are enthusiastically playing in bubbles:



However, I mistakenly let them play unsupervised, and after vacuuming the downstairs, I ascended to vacuum upstairs and was horrified to find the sink overflowing with water and bubbles from sink to living room! So much for needing to mop, and I'm still finding undiscovered puddles! Lesson learned.

That's hilarious! Well, at least they had a good time! And I love the new pics of the girls in their matching dresses on the side. Man, I need to get motivated and get my kids some coordinated clothes - it's just so cute!!

Oh no! They sure look cute, though--especially all standing at the sink. Bubbles are so fun!

Glad to hear that my kids aren't the only ones who manage to make such a HUGE mess out of something so seemingly innocent! ;) Cute pics of them though. And I'm with Charlotte - I just adore those matching dresses the girls are in on your sidebar! I love the colors and style, and they all look beautiful.

Awesome! Kids are so like that, I just go down stairs and they destroy the upstairs, how do they do it? oh well, people say we will miss this .... somehow I doubt it!

Don't you ever wish you could do something like that and actually get away with it? (And NOT have to clean it up)? Sounds like they had a lot of fun!
Your blog sure is looking cute!

Glad they had fun, sad you had to clean it up after you had already been cleaning! Your girls costumes were really great. You should be getting compliments. And did you dye your hair? What was with the green?
