Like playing "Whack-a-Mole." Clean up one area, he destroys another. Repeat. Over and over and over and over....sigh....

Re: cleaning with a toddler is...
is so pointless...
They think its funny to smash their cup of pretzels into crumbs all over the living room floor just as you put the vacuum away.
or
take their sippy cup and shake the contents out all over the coffee table and couch.
Clean after they go to sleep - that is the only solution to getting things in order. At least you'll be able to wake up and see a clean home for 2 minutes before he starts his attack plan all over again

I feel the same way when I am cleaning with DH in the house. I swear I finish cleaning the kitchen and he then decides he's starving and makes a mess. It never fails.

Re: cleaning with a toddler is...
... impossible
... stressful
If I can't avoid it, then I make her help. but its hard to concentrate when I have to pay attention to her every 5secs
If Im SUPER lucky i can put her in front of Tangled and get an hour! If I'm unlucky she'll say she wants me to sit with her while she watches or she'll jump up, run to where I am to share each part of the movie I've seen a million times LOL

Re: cleaning with a toddler is...
tiring!!! DD always wants to "help" me vacuum which means she's in one arm and I vacuum with the other. I gotta say, it's a really good workout!

Re: cleaning with a toddler is...

If I have patience I will give the girls a water bottle to squirt and paper towels. It does help the process go a bit faster.
