thinkin' about it thursday.

vacuums.

what the heck is up with my kids loving the vacuum?  whenever i get it out, it takes me twice as long as it should to get the floor clean.  you see, i have this special little "helper" who follows me around saying, "mommy, my turn, my turn!"
and then i let him have a turn, which is never long enough, and we start the whole process over again.  the entire time the baby is mesmerized. 
is this because i don't vacuum often enough?  i would think every other day is not a rare event.  (it feels like every other day)  how can vacuuming be so special?  is this normal or do i have little janitors on my hands?  
don't even get me started on sweeping and mopping.  {smirk}

I let the boys help mop all the time and I LOVE it. (maybe because I HATE mopping?) Glad that your boys like helping! Don't you dare discourage it! :)

wait a sec...do you really have a dyson vaccuum? cuz if you do, i'm getting in line behind cy cuz i want a turn. i keep telling casey i want one of those and he just can't seem to understand why a vaccuum needs to cost $400.

Oh we are such a vacuum family! We have the red dyson and are obsessed with it! The kids don't love the vacuum but they do love our "Shark" and our swiffer mop :)
