At first my husband, Engineman, was putting the swing back into her room every time we were expecting company. Well those days have clearly ended. The swing has a permanent home in the living room, the kitchen table houses a super seat, and the pack and play resides in our bedroom. BUT WAIT; THERE'S MORE! The gigantic exersaucer rotates from the kitchen to living room. That thing is its own island and doesn't fit through doorways. Okay, okay. I will stop there. But you know I could go on (as I pull a teething ring from under the couch cushion). Please tell me I am not alone in feeling as if my house has turned into a obstacle course of plastic and primary colors.
Oh shit, gotta hurdle over the playmat, the crockpot is making noises. Yes, I said crockpot.
You have a baby. Your house is no longer your own. I love how homes look in House and Garden magazine...I much prefer my home that has the evidence of my babies all over. That's what is important. That this is OUR home.
