Cleaning Rampage

I am on a cleaning rampage. My brother and SIL arrive tomorrow evening and Punk and I will be gone all day tomorrow babysitting a friend's baby. And tomorrow is Punk's birthday, aieeeeee! I need to bake something! I need to wrap presents! Aieeeeeeeee!

I vacuumed the hell out of my house today. Which was a feat in itself because Punk is scared of the vacuum. So it was like this: vacuum a room, hear screaming, calm kid down, vacuum a room. Repeat repeat repeat. But it's done. DONE!

She keeps asking me what we're doing for the rest of the day and I would like my answer to be PASS OUT. But there is more cleaning to do! But that is boring for her. Decisions.

I am super freaking out about this babysitting thing. Not the babysitting part, but the taking my kid along for the day part! I am going to attempt to get her to nap at someone else's house. GOOD TIMES.

Also, today Punk told me, "Go to cvs.com, Mama." Awesome.

Ha!

Today she told me, "Splenda is a no-calorie sweetener!"

Damn television!

Carys is afraid of the vacuum too. [Esmee falls asleep when I vacuum, hahaha]. Has Punk always been afraid of it - or is this a new thing? Carys has always been afraid - but in the last few months her fear has become more intense - like she has an imagination to go along with her fear now... so she kind of makes things up about what the vacuum is capable of.

She has always been afraid of the vacuum, even when teeny tiny. So I try to never vacuum when she is in the house, but I had no choice!!

Javi is also a hater of the vacuum. Not just scared of it, but petrified. Trembles, freaks out, cries, wants to be held, the whole shebang. He even hates Roomba, not like that even works anymore (piece of shit).

Punk is more scared of the Roomba than the regular vacuum because it moves by itself. She is terrified of anything that moves by itself, even those little matchbox cars that you pull back and they go.

Whoops!

I'm scared of the Roomba and I'm an adult :)
