Life Gets Messy

My mom was here for two weeks in September. It was great having her here; I wished we lived closer, but that's another post for another day. I can't believe she's been gone for nearly two weeks already.

T Junior had a grand time with Grandma. Know how I can tell?

See for yourself.


Anyway, we're sad she left, but it did force us to settle into our new, permanent routine with T Junior attending a local day care at a house in our neighborhood on the couple of days I go to work. We're still working out the kinks, but so far it seems to be OK.

Meanwhile, the house looks like the clutter bomb exploded in it. Not that my mom cleaned a ton while she was here, but she did help it stay tidy. On the days I worked, I'd come home and she'd have done the dishes or picked up the toys. It looked normal in here. Now, I'm sorry to say, it looks scary. Hey, just in time for Halloween! I was tempted for about 1 second to go downstairs and photograph the mess, but I'm just too embarrassed.

I have an excuse for the chaos, though.

Since Grandma's been gone so much has happened with T Junior. He's been keeping me and Mr. T super busy. (This also explains my absence from this blog.) Seriously, it's been hard to do anything but baby stuff.

I bet you are wondering what it is. Well, you'll just have to come back on Friday to find out.

I'll give you a hint: T Junior's pediatrician was shocked when I told her what he's been up to.
