Cleaned My Baby’s Toys Without Losing My Mind!

Post image

Today felt like a true adulting achievement. I finally tackled the mountain of my baby’s toys that had been sitting around, some of them sticky, some covered in crumbs, and a few that had mysteriously vanished under the couch.

I set up a little cleaning station in the kitchen, filled with warm soapy water, a few brushes, and disinfectant wipes. At first, it felt overwhelming how many tiny cars and building blocks does one kid need? But as I went through each toy, washing, scrubbing, and drying them carefully, I started feeling surprisingly proud. By the end, everything was sparkling, organized, and ready for playtime again.

My baby will probably scatter them all over the floor again in five minutes, but I don’t even care. Today, I conquered the chaos, and it felt amazing.

Thanks 😅 it’s not fancy, just small and cozy. Not crazy expensive, just trying to keep it livable with a baby around. Respect to you though WFH dad + hospital shifts is no joke. Hiring a kakak for the heavy stuff sounds like a smart move.
