Hygeine Habits of a 4- Year Old

Eli has a favorite red, fleece, GAP sweatshirt that he got two Christmas' ago and that he would wear everyday if we let him (and already does wear more than he should)! His most recent wearing was to the Monster Truck Jam on Saturday night. After church he pulled it out of the dirty clothes and tried to convince me to let him slip it back on... I told him, "NO WAY!". Then when Seth told him to get dressed for school this morning- sure enough he came back down the stairs wearing a mangy, dirty, nacho cheese, cotton candy covered red, GAP sweatshirt.

Seth: Eli that is filthy! Go take it off! You can not wear that to school today.

Eli: But there's not POOP on it!!

Seth: You're right. That is about the only thing NOT on it. Go take it off!

Apparently that is the standard of cleanliness around the Washburn home. Anything is fair game unless there is poop on it!?!

  1. At least he won't wear poop. You have to appreciate that he has standards. :)

  2. Are you about ready to burn the sweatshirt! I feel that way about things my girls have to wear over and over and over. Even if I really liked to to begin with.

  3. Nathan and Brian also enjoyed a fun evening at the Monster Jam. Next year let's plan a girl's night out while the boys Jam it up...oh, and just think, by then you could bring along your newborn baby girl with beautiful curly hair like her mother's. :-)

  4. That's awesome! It could be worse, at least it's a GAP sweatshirt! Good taste that kid has!

  5. It sounds clean enough to me - what's the big deal mom?!I wish my kids were a little more like that instead of wearing 3 outfits a day!
