But I run the dishwasher almost daily too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544469 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:19:38 +0000 looch 2544469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son makes laundry, my husband uses like 7 drinking glasses over the course of a day, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544462 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:16:51 +0000 Bao 2544462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: oh wow yeah mine is just a standard washer with the agitator that takes up so much space </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544461 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:16:20 +0000 erinbaderin 2544461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely more laundry. I was saying that this weekend, that I feel like no matter how often I do laundry my son's hamper is always full. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544460 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:16:15 +0000 lamariniere 2544460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's about equal. We run the dishwasher about every 24 hours and I do laundry probably every other day or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544453 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:08:44 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2544453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: We also bought I Think the worlds largest washing machine so I think that helps. I can fit like 10 towels (if not more) in my washer in 1 load. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544452 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:07:02 +0000 Bao 2544452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: almost! Between lovies or blankets they get dirty, washcloths, getting messy outside or doing art. I don't always change dirty outfits throughout the day but sometimes it's needed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544446 Mon, 09 May 2016 12:04:25 +0000 dagret 2544446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: before we got a new, larger washer I'd say laundry - i was doing 1-2 loads A DAY, where now I do 4-5 loads a week. So now I run the dishwasher once every day or every other day, and I'd say it's more dishes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544435 Mon, 09 May 2016 11:47:31 +0000 delight 2544435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>More dishes than laundry! I do DD's laundry probably about every 1.5 weeks, same with mine. I find there are constantly dishes to wash or put away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544431 Mon, 09 May 2016 11:36:15 +0000 PawPrints 2544431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now neither unless you count cloth diapers. She's 13 months and we just put her food directly onto her tray and rinse that off in the sink after every meal, so she doesn't really produce dishes. And I do her laundry like once every week or so. I undress her before meals so she only goes through one outfit per day normally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544420 Mon, 09 May 2016 11:20:44 +0000 jape14 2544420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dishes for sure. DS is 20 mo and I do about one load of his laundry per week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544371 Mon, 09 May 2016 10:46:52 +0000 snowjewelz 2544371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dishes. We only do her laundry once a week. </p> <p>Mostly just a lot of sippy cups. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544361 Mon, 09 May 2016 10:40:58 +0000 Anagram 2544361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our kids' laundry and dishes are less than DH/my combined laundry and dishes.</p> <p>The girls' clothes are just laundered once a week, on Fridays. My husband and I usually do 4-5 loads of our own stuff per week, and a little more spread out.</p> <p>Same with dishes-LO1 uses the same water thermos all day long, whether we are at home or at school. LO2 has bottles but the nanny washes those on week days, and even so, we only have 4 bottles, so we have to wash each night and they don't pile up. LO1 has 2 special plates, so we just rinse those immediately after she eats to be used at the next meal.</p> <p>Our dishes, on the other hand. We are only 2 people, and somehow we have to run the dishwasher every couple of days, haha. I go through about 4 water glasses a day--I don't know why! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544349 Mon, 09 May 2016 10:31:20 +0000 nana87 2544349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When she was itty bitty, and had blowouts all the time, def more laundry, but now it's definitely more dishes! It's rare that she wears more than 1 outfit and 1 pair of jammies per day now, but dh was joking yesterday that she had used every single one of her plates or bowls during the day yesterday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544324 Mon, 09 May 2016 10:17:11 +0000 2PeasinaPod 2544324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>More dirty laundry for sure. The spitup and blowouts are rampant in our house with LO2. He makes more laundry than he's worth haha...</p> <p>LO1 also produced a ton of laundry this weekend. It's been super rainy and muddy, and we don't really care all that much if he hops in puddles. The funny thing is, he hates being wet and muddy, so he wants his pants changed almost immediately. Makes for tons of laundry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544322 Mon, 09 May 2016 10:16:41 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2544322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! A load of laundry per day? My kids change clothes a lot (get messy) but no where near that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/more-laundry-or-more-dishes#post-2544308 Mon, 09 May 2016 10:08:05 +0000 Bao 2544308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't do any housework the past few days since yesterday was Mother's Day and I wanted to relax. Well I'm playing catch up today and wow...my kids produce so much laundry and dishes it's insane. Cups, snack bowls, dishes for food. Then several outfit changes which means almost a load of laundry per day between the two of them. </p> <p>Does your LO produce more dirty laundry or more dirty dishes? </p>
