Right Now - Real Life

Me on Sunday night (about 2 minutes after the last guest left): If I open a present, it needs to go strait upstairs to be played with.
Alison & Ellie: Ok Mom. No Problem Mom. Sounds good Mom.

Flash forward to Tuesday morning:
My house looks like it threw up on itself. Notice not only the toys thrown about, but the multiple pairs of shoes, the multiple cups (on the coffee table, end table, Brooke's chair), Brooke and Ellie's breakfast still on the table - an hour after they are done eating it, and sorry sliders & a rocket are on the floor behind the coffee table. And if the pictures panned back a bit, you would notice the Happy Birthday banner still up, fallen balloons, Alison's school work, Ellie's homeschool papers on the table, and the drink table still up. Ladies and Gentlmen - this is my house in real life - right now. (and I can't even justify it by saying that the upstairs looks any better!)

So, no one stop by unexpectedly today please. My house is not ready for you!

  2. So what's new? Just different "stuff" to deal with. When Alison gets home from school you can have an "orginization party".

    When are you posting "Party" pictures?
