I'll go do it right now. ........... Ok, tested on my kitchen floor, which is in desparate need of a mop, actually, and didn't get anything on the paper towel. We do have a no-shoes-in-the-house policy though.

Olive has been crawling around, and her onesie has gotten so dirty! Talk about an indictment of my cleaning!! So I got on my hands and knees and wow... so much cleaner. I guess the stroller wheels get dirt in the entryway and then that gets tracked in and all around the floors. Ugh, so gross!!!! I guess I need to clean more on my hands and knees.
