Home makeovers, they
never do go as planned do they? Something ALWAYS comes up and pushes your
expected completion date back. I was hoping I would be able to share our
awesome new bathroom makeover and our Cottonelle clean routine with you today. But, I can’t.
Hubby has been working hard but, there is still a TON of work left to do.
So, instead of our
completed bathroom makeover, I am going to share about the shelf I made to hold
a few extra rolls of Toilet Paper. I made this to hang above the toilet in the
bathroom we are making over. I love the shabby chic look so the scuffs and
imperfections look great to me. I do plan to scuff it up just a bit more
though.
Now to our
#cottonelleroutine. We are STILL trying to teach MG how to wipe after she
poops. You guys, she starts school in like a month! She HAS to get this down! I
have this fear of her being kicked out of school because she can’t wipe her
hiney. *SIGH*
We have used Cottonelle Toilet Paper for YEARS, so
naturally I incorporated their FreshCare Wipes into our care routine to help MG
learn to wipe properly. Do you use flushable wipes for your kids? They are
lifesavers! MGs biggest fear is getting poop on her hand, I have to agree that
is a pretty valid fear. I mean really, who wants THAT on their hand? Not this
mama!
Since we were running
low on toilet paper, we decided to head to Target
and get in on a GREAT deal for Cottonelle. When you bought 2 18 packs of
Cottonelle, you received a package of their FreshCare Wipes for FREE! Awesome
deal!
When we got home, I
put a few extra rolls of toilet paper in my new shelf and placed the wipes on
the top of the shelf. That way everything is easily reachable. I then set out
to teach MG how to use the wipes herself. She felt better using the wipes than
toilet paper because the wipes cover a larger area. While she still doesn’t
have it down, she is getting there! PHEW! I will be using these last few weeks
of summer break to really work with her so she can do it on her own. She is
excited about school and knows she has to be able to wipe on her own or she can’t
go. She is very eager to get this down thanks to our Cottonelle clean routine!
