We do the water drool here too. They usually keep it to the kitchen, or the bathroom, wherever they choose to take the drink. Jennifer has done the slide and slip act in the kitchen. She isnt walking, she ALWAYS runs, one day she came jogging into the kitchen, and I heard a schlupp - boooom and a cry, her legs had gone straight up and she landed on her butt, and ouch....... it hurt. I try to wipe up the spill in the kitchen, but like you say, sometimes it is hard to keep up with all the drinking, especially with 4 of them. I dont know what it is about the toilet but Galahad who is the one who likes to drink there, doesnt slobber as much there as in kitchen.
I like the swiffer too, both the dry and wet, well I like all mops and cloths and towels hehe I think I could run one wash a day with only towels.
So no real advice here either, just try and live with it, and get used to the idea that your children will grow up remembering you with a vacuum and a mop constantly stuck to you
