Cleaning House

As a mom, I am never "done".  There is always something to do.  Always.   I saw this picture on pinterest that explains my life:

I can't even claim the house was clean yesterday.  Sometimes it was, but most likely not.   Parts of it were clean maybe!

Here is the main reason why I can't complete a task in my house: 

While the big sister is at school, that leaves Madeline at home with me.  Sometimes its great, and sometimes we have days like this.  Days where she rips off her pants and hangs on my legs while screaming because I wouldn't let her play with a sharpie.  How dare I????? 

Here is what you will find if you come over after the kids have been playing (old pic since obviously Madeline is bald here LOL) :

That's just my life right now.  As I clean, Madeline is behind me taking it all out.  I had to make a bed the other day with her in it!  I laughed at myself  because it was the only way I could keep an eye on her while changing the sheets.  One day I will actually have something called "free time" back again.  Oh how I miss that. 

Don't forget that my Thirty-One blog party is going on as well as the giveaway!  It's a great way to get some holiday gifts out of the way!
