This morning's trick was to get out the bottle of concentrated Dawn dishwashing liquid and squirt several large spots onto his bedroom carpet. This took Yehoshua only a minute or two, and Joshua and I scrubbed the carpet for a full hour before giving up on ever completely removing all the lather. By then, I had a half-load of towels and rags that had been used in an effort to clean the floor... and my load of diapers wasn't even started!

I managed to get the diapers washed and hung before we left to go see my cousin, and when I got back home, I did another load of laundry in the hopes that it would still dry. As I was hanging it out, the clouds completely covered the sun. Thankfully, it didn't rain, but I do need to go out and get the laundry down before it gets much later... it might rain tonight! :)

We had a quick dinner of Taco Salad. Yehoshua had a bath, and helped me wash dishes. We straightened up the house a little, paid several bills, and wrote somewhat of a to-do list for tomorrow. There's a busy week ahead, with Yehoshua's surgery on Tuesday and Joshua's grandma (from Washington state) arriving here (by car) possibly Wednesday or Thursday. We're SO excited about her visit!!
