Carmel roll adventure!

Yesterday, I decided to make carmel rolls. I enjoy making them from scratch, so I set out to make them yesterday afternoon. Tayva wanted a snack, so I set her in her high chair while I began making the dough. She likes to watch me make things, but when she sees me measuring the sugar and flour etc, she HAS to participate. Since I was in a hurry, I decided just to put the sugar canister (there was only a little sugar left) on her high chair with a measuring cup, and let her play with it. For a long time, she just sat there and had a great time filling and dumping the measuring cup back in the canister. I turned my back for a minute while I was working with the dough, and the next thing I knew, there was a big mound of sugar on the high chair tray.

Since she already had a mess going, I figured I would just let her go until I was done with the dough, then I could clean everything up. In the meantime, she accidentally knocked the whole sugar canister on the floor. Now there was a huge mound of sugar on the floor!! It was more than I could just wipe up, so I went to get the vacuum. I started to vacuum the sugar up, and it didn't take me long to realize that I hadn't turned off the agitator on the vacuum, so it spun the sugar all over the rest of the kitchen floor!! I ended up vacuuming the entire floor. When I went to take Tayva out of the high chair, I saw there was a big pile of sugar on her lap, in the high chair, and down her pants. I took the vacuum cleaner hose to her shirt and lap. I couldn't quite reach all her lap and the whole chair, so I took the high chair tray off, and set it on the counter. I proceeded to vacuum the rest of the sugar off her lap and out of the high chair. Just as I was finishing that, the high chair tray slipped off the counter, and the FULL sippy cup of milk opened and spilled all over the kitchen floor!!!! So, I was wiping up the milk, and I noticed there was still a lot of sugar in the tile grout etc. So, I ended up scrubbing the entire kitchen floor!! Whew!!!! All that for a batch of carmel rolls!! They tasted really good at least!!
