Three Week Recap #3
Why? Why? Why? Is it always my Great Nanas antique arm chair or my favorite household rug? Always.....How can this sweet face
manage to create such foul, mind numbing, gut wrenching vomit that he strategically spews all over my antique arm chair or my rug -Every Single Time? The rug, I admit is easier to deal with. I simply throw it in the washing machine, despite its tags warnings to "Dry Clean Only" -which in a house of two toddlers is simply laughable.
The chair on the other hand is delicate and holds great sentimental value. I tempted fate by actually gutting the seat cushion and putting its cover through a hand wash cycle. It faired well, except now I must stuff the seat until I am able to have a new cushion made. 
The rug on the other hand. It think it has been through its final wash cycle. As it came out looking a little worse for wear.
I guess they knew what they were talking about when they said "Dry Clean Only". For those of you looking for a Christmas gift idea, I am in need of a new rug, this one has become a trip hazard. Oh the joys of motherhood!

Ohhhhh sooo sorry you had to do that! That does NOT sound fun at all! Pretty chair though. Let's take up a collection for a new carpet. Hope your day goes better today!
Oh no! I am so sorry! Your poor, sick family.
That stinks!! We bought new really cute couches from RC Willey when my oldest was a baby. That was his favorite place to puke--on the couch. It finally got to the point of no return and we ended up buying a new LEATHER couch (the puke wipes right off) only 3 short years later. What a waste of money--stupid puke!!
ick. hate cleaning up after sick kiddos. i hope your chair is able to avoid any future episodes.
it also cracks me up when kids clothes are dry clean only? where's the logic in that?
Oh man, I'm so sorry about that. That's horrible. At least the chair is (moderately) okay. I hope your son gets to feeling better.
Hehe, so this is why the one family I nannied for layed towels over EVERYTHING when their son was sick!
so gross!!! hope he's feeling better
Aaaagh! That stinks. I can sympathize. Our house is mostly hardwood floors, but our family room has carpet. When my dog gets sick, where does she throw up 95% of the time? On the carpet! Which is much harder to clean than hardwood or tile! It seems like vomit and difficult-to-clean surfaces are magnetically attracted to each other, unfortunately.
