I wish that I could put this all on my husband, his job has a few busy times of year and that particular one seems to be one of them. He will do as much as he can, but I am not sure how much time he can actually give it.... I will find help...maybe one of my sisters will do it or we can find a college student that wants to make a bit of extra cash.... it will get done, that I know. Good luck with your new house and move.... at least you give your kids cheese from the block. I just throw them a package of string cheese.... <BR/><BR/>Mem, I tried baby oil, nada. I finally just scraped it off and cut the stuff out of his hair.

YOU NEED HELP! In fact, it turned out to be not all bad, because by the time I got back with the baby, we were pretty much settled (we're fast unpackers). . .and I had a legit excuse.<BR/><BR/>If it makes you feel any better, my kids are currently eating pieces of cheese for breakfast that I'm slicing directly from the block and am overwhelmed myself with the prospect of our own move. . .which puts me in a catatonic state and, by the end of the day, means I will have accomplished absolutely nothing. <BR/><BR/>But you still win.

I did the same thing when I was pregnant with Samuel and I decided that I couldn't stand the noice from the the neighbors for one more second. A week later we were gone! <BR/><BR/>I think every woman should be allowed one crazy obsession/impulsive action per pregnancy. If I recall, when you were pregnant with Lauren, Derek and I had to paint the dining 4 times in different variations of yellow/stripes before you decided on the original color. Moving houses is far more productive! Way to go (do you want help painting the dining room?)CKWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753715981940316495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12830417.post-465369214306063702008-02-05T16:39:00.000-08:002008-02-05T16:39:00.000-08:00angie, great poem.Taber, did YOU vote?
