Laundry

I HATE doing laundry. I honestly don't mind to put in the wash, but folding and putting it away is something I dread. To be quite honest I only put it away when you have to stretch your arm so high to reach the top of the pile I have sitting on the dryer. When it gets like that, I separate it into baskets for everyone to put away their own clothes, well minus my Sunshine!

So today I have 4 laundry baskets... yes I said 4! I know it is sad, but again I HATE doing laundry! Anyway, these baskets were sitting on the floor in my living room up against the wall. I was making lunch and I look over to see Miss Sunshine pulling every single piece of folded laundry out. She was not only just pulling it out, she was unfolding everything, rubbing them up against her face BEFORE she tried to put every article of clothing on.

I was upset at the fact I had to fold it all again, but I couldn't help but just laugh at her! She was being so cute and honestly she was sitting still for longer than 5 minutes, so I didn't mind! I went on making lunch and she sat there for almost 20 minutes just playing in the clothes. What is it with nice, clean, folded laundry that makes a child (ages 16 months-24 months) want to play in them instead of toys?! All of my kids did this when they were little, so this is nothing new really! She just sat and enjoyed the clothes, where as my other children just loved to unfold it and watch me re-fold it all :)

I will be honest yet again and tell you I only re-folded 2 baskets worth. I just shoved the other clothes in the baskets and put them all in the laundry room so she couldn't get to them again. So as I get off of here tonight it is 11pm and I am going to sit my lazy butt on the couch watch some TV and fold 2 more baskets of laundry again!!!!

I wish there was a laundry fairy who folded and put it all away for me, even if it was just once a month! So if anyone wants to be my fairy I will have some baskets ready for you :)
