I always feel like with us having so many kids that I have to exceed people's expectations so they don't think bad things about us, so I always make sure my girls look super cute and they are all in nice clothes and cleaned up. My baby girls have all had super fine hair that all matts up the second they get in a carseat too, so that has always made that challenging, but you learn to carry a brush and utilize wet wipes to calm it down. There is no need to show up to someone's house with a "kool aid mustache" koolaid stained clothes, arms, and legs, and matted hair .

Oh, does that bring back memories! I used to carry a wet washcloth in a baggie, a spray bottle of water and a comb/brush.
