Naturally when my doctor gave me the ok to head back home for a couple weeks, I was thrilled to get to spend Christmas with my family, and wasn’t thinking much about the state of our house.

So, when my husband and I pulled up and Jas turned to me and said, “The house is just a bit of a mess,” I wasn’t really sure what to expect, but I should have known. To put it simply, the house was chaos. Mountains of laundry, empty fridge, sink full of dishes, dirty bathrooms and kitchen, but surprisingly Buds’ room was the worst of all, looking slightly as I imagine it will again when he’s a teenager.

So the past couple of days have been filled with errands galore and about 18 loads of laundry. Needless to say, I was completely exhausted and after getting back from groceries,  I collapsed in bed while Jason put everything away and then put together the crib. And honestly,  I didn’t feel bad about it all. Not even a little bit.
