I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date!

No time to say 'Hello', 'Goodbye!' I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.

And so forth, which is pretty much how I have felt this month. If a white rabbit could speak for me.

I have an exersaucer that I spent $10 on (it's a really nice exersaucer, but used) and then discovered the fabric insert had cat pee on it, realized this meant I had to take the whole thing apart, scrub it in my bathtub, put it back together and cart it over to the only place in town I know of with a UV wand so they can make sure it is super clean for the baby to suck on. This was months ago, people, and the exersaucer is exactly where I left it in my hallway.

I have to buy a new carseat. Because children grow, a fact I didn't take into account with my old carseat. What do you think of this? It's $220.00, but it FOLDS UP! Samuel and I arrived home from a whirlwind week visiting family and friends, discovered it was a million degrees here, and promptly took refuge at a friend's house. This means nothing is unpacked, and we arrived home Tuesday. It is Saturday. I am a horrible organizer.

The baby, my sweet little baby, is sort-of kinda crawling and rubbing his precious little self all over my dirty floors and I NEED to mop them and possibly get down on my hands and knees with a scrub brush just to make certain. That or cover him with swiffers.

He's also teething, if you can believe it. If you saw the state of things around here you would. He chews on everything, and drools. The two bottom teeth have gotten more elevated, I really think they are pushing up. I'm thinking some teething beads? I'd welcome opinions about them - have they worked for you?

Finally, I'm working on a post about natural household cleaners. What do you use around your home that helps cut down on the waste or chemicals associated with traditional cleaners?

Here's hoping the day gets more relaxed and MUCH less hectic.
