Last year we bought what was said to be the greatest vacuum ever! The good old Dyson. Oh how people rant and rave over this thing. Now don’t get me wrong, this is a great vacuum……..when it is not growling and making the most horrible sucking/strangling/growling noises when you vacuum over a rug. 

 I like a clean house……well, that is not quite true…. I LOVE a clean house, it is just getting it clean that has become such a challenge. While I was on bedrest and for the first three months the babies were here we had a cleaner…oh Gloria how we miss you! Now it is up to me to keep this place clean and I do try, but it is not the same as coming home to that yummy clean house smell where everything is clean all at once. I have to clean by rooms…Monday is the kitchen, Tuesday is the bathrooms etc. I try to vacuum upstairs (the only place with carpet) at least twice a week, but now that Heaten is scared of the vacuum it is making it very hard to do.

  While vacuuming the bathroom rugs the Dyson does its growling thing and Heaten promply bursts into tears. Real tears mind you. The kind that make your eyes water and drip down your face tears. I was so sad for him, sitting in his exersaucer having the time of his life…and then GRRRRROOOOWWWWWWLLLLLL life as he knew it was over! Hopefully he’ll get used to the growling vacuum and life can continue on its clean, merry way!

And for your viewing pleasure some photos of Heaten and Shenzie all dressed up in their summer outfits with no place to go.
