Eat Your Heart Out, Trading Spaces

2003/06/10

Our guest room redecorated for under $300, with the kind assistance of Super Target and my mom. Too bad it’s only going to look like this for 7 more months.

    Congradulations!! I’m so happy for you. But I want you to know what happens when you reproduce. Here is a post from my husbands blog . . . . .

    *Rebekah sucks her thumb… a lot. It bothers the hell outta me. She also puts everything she touches into her mouth. This also bothers me a lot… especially when it’s my dvd cases. But, as I sat here yesterday, happily chewing on a rubber cap from a little plastic tube that the new router bits come in, I realized that she’ll never stop putting everything in her mouth.

    Brian leaves his socks laying on the floor every stinking day. Last night before he got in bed I went in his room and told him to pick up all the clothes and put them in the hamper. Immediately I spied 3 socks on the floor and knew, knew without a doubt, what was about to happen. He happily picked up every piece of clothing in his room… except for those 3 socks. Then I went in our room to get ready for bed and saw a pair of socks laying by my side of the bed. I know they’ve been there for at least 2 weeks.

    Chewing on every inanimate object that will possibly fit in your mouth, and leaving socks on the floor are hereditary. Who knew?! I’ve cursed my kids with annoying habits*

    Congrats to you and your hubby! Boy, are you gonna have fun now.

    Diaper genies don’t work. Just get the one that you can slide closed in addition to the lid (you’ll know what I’m talking about when you see it). Also, the babyseat and stroller combo things are awesome because you don’t wake the baby when you move it from the car to stroller to house.

    Oh, and since some hospitals mix babys up, when the baby pops out, hubby sticks like glue as they take him/her to measure, weigh, and swab off. He sticks until they put the baby name tag on.

    Finally, everyone’s gonna want to tell you all their horror stories, and every one they’ve ever heard, some of which are urban myths. STOP THEM. Tell them you’ve heard it already, and that you’re done with horror stories. This is because everything WILL be OK, and that bad stuff won’t happen to you, so you don’t need to hear it and then worry about it.

    (Yet one more: make sure the initials of the name you pick don’t spell something that s/he’ll pay for on the playground.)

  • Sheila

    I just checked out the UBN; surprised to find Sheighlagh – comes pretty close to the Celtic spelling of my name (Sheilagh).

    You aren’t going to let your nephews into that room are you? If so, I have a suggestion: Plastic Sheeting.

    I am totally available for babysitting. I will drive from Oklahoma to Utah armed with nothing but Fruit Roll Ups and mix tapes and handi-wipes.
