I thought I was the only mom who didn't clean her mini-van on a regular basis and was greeted by unidentifiable objects in her cupholders (and also the trunk, as my oldest son has a habit of tossing his food behind him when he's finished with it). I've stopped giving them fruit after I once found a banana rotting away. Now I find left over chicken nuggets, cereal and trail mix.Coffee Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04480393556921957793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-40829284206467795492010-01-31T04:08:29.510-05:002010-01-31T04:08:29.510-05:00Cup holders, what you will find in them indeed.

We have two small SUV's and one of them is impeccably maintained (which means that it gets vacuumed once a year and washed when it rains). This is the most common mode of transport for our 8 month old. Fortunately, he only eats strained baby food at this point, so there are no unidentified objects in the cup holders.<br /><br />I wish the same could be said for car number 2. Poor "old gray" hasn't been driven in a while. He's a good car, but he has a lot of miles on him, so he's usually safely stabled in the garage as a back-up. Upon inspection of all cup holders I inventoried the following:<br /><br />4 restaurant peppermints from Sonic. We were there last October.<br /><br />2 sticky, crusty soft drink "rings" probably the result of 1 Diet Dr. Pepper & 1 Lemon Slush.<br /><br />2 pennies which about sums up how much cash I have.<br /><br />And the crowning jewel, the prize find, the golden ticket: a dog biscuit.<br /><br />We don't have a dog....<br /><br />Please, please ask me what I have in the center console.MaLeahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03099183185935776073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-76440576880188226242009-12-31T17:46:52.824-05:002009-12-31T17:46:52.824-05:00Not a cup holder story, but...

Must have lost the bottle at the mall. Oh, well." <br /><br />Thought nothing of it until several days later when I got in my car and was immediately assaulted by a horrible, rank, disgusting, violent smell. Unbelievably, terribly, nauseatingly bad. Guess who had dropped her bottle of GOAT'S MILK on the floor of the car where it proceeded to leak for two days into the carpet under the driver's seat? Ever smell rotten goat's milk? Ummm... don't! That car was never the same. <br /><br />(This is the same SIL who let her baby toddle around the house with a bottle of prune juice, trailing drips everywhere. Thirty years later you can still see the faint stains on our Oriental rug. Gotta love her!)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185255434783858464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-48585197550303893642009-12-31T17:39:40.483-05:002009-12-31T17:39:40.483-05:00our car has smelt like a giant fart for the past w...our car has smelt like a giant fart for the past week until I dug out french fries from under their car seats. I think a half eaten chicken nugget was hiding there too. and a ton of chips and crackers half shriveled up carrots and apples. my husband says no more snacks in the car but that is so not going to happen. with our schedule I guess I will just have to clean out the van more often. yeah, one more thing on the list.Jo's girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16421763889031786514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-5987010804001381382009-12-31T17:38:05.083-05:002009-12-31T17:38:05.083-05:00LOL!!!

Little did I know that the 4 year old would chew up her pack of gum and then put the used pieces in her cup holder. It was discovered after the trip when we were back in 115 degree heat of the AZ summer. Gum, heat, and 4 year olds don't do well together.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03593726446981839522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-32704725798943848322009-12-31T16:31:25.235-05:002009-12-31T16:31:25.235-05:00We had our own treat found in our door by my young...We had our own treat found in our door by my youngest's car seat- took us about 2 weeks to find it- but fortunately it didn't smell. http://www.singingandspinning.com/2008/11/one-way-to-know-that-you-have-2-year.htmlAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16652844973442258951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-28771776816286300992009-12-31T16:12:06.323-05:002009-12-31T16:12:06.323-05:00Funny - I too find numerous scientific discoveries...Funny - I too find numerous scientific discoveries in my cup holders...lol<br />Love,<br />Kelly<br />http://www.ivebecomemymother.comKelly Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02990072727974408086noreply@blogger.com
