Bringing Henry Home: STOP THE PRESSES!

Tuesday, April 12, 2011

STOP THE PRESSES!

We interrupt all regularly scheduled blog posts...and life in general....

Because our social worker is coming over Thursday afternoon for our home visit!

We will be cleaning like crazy tomorrow...

Which we know we do not HAVE to do...

But my dear hubby is thrilled to jump on any opportunity to have an exceptionally clean house!

Wish me luck!
