Today I Fought the Monsters Under My Bed.

Spiders count as monsters, right?

Right.

I go back and forth as to whether I should use the space under our bed for storage.  I just really like to get the most out of every square inch, if I can.  But, those storage buckets make for wonderful spider web frames (especially with all the items that get randomly lost under there).  Not to mention the bit of a pain it is to pull everything out during cleaning.

But that is what I did today and I'm happy to report that there are no more dust bunnies or arachnids hanging out under my sleeping space anymore!  It was not a pleasant chore, but I don't have a ginormous belly to use as an excuse anymore, so it had to be done.

I don't really have anything else earth shaking to blog about.  My days have been full of the little things.  My favorite was probably when  I busted out a pint of strawberries for snack time, this afternoon, and hand fed them to Ash and Britt (to save their clothes and avoid any messy clean-up).  After we'd eaten every last one, Ash wrapped her arms around my knees, hugged my legs and said, "Thank you, Mama."  **warmed up heart**  I love her spontaneous gratitude.

Oh, and that town home I had my heart set on in Idaho?  Gone. 

Poop.
