Mommy survival mode

I went into survival mode this morning...mainly because I have an open house tonight and tomorrow. I started cleaning room by room. I despise selling our house and really wish someone would just buy the stupid thing. I am cleaning constantly, although this week I decided not to clean (as much), and I feel like the house isn't really "lived in". It looks to perfect. It needs to have some toothbrushes on the counter, some toys strewn about, and maybe some unmade beds. Instead it looks immaculate. So room by room I went along clean and scrubbing every corner of our house in hopes that someone will come in this weekend and buy it.

Olivia does not normally watch a lot of TV, probably an hour or two a day. This morning, however, she watched two looooong movies while I cleaned. I will probably pay for this later as she is already not interested in napping. She needs to get that energy out so that when naptime comes around she is completely exhausted and sleeps for two plus hours. I will definitely be taking her outside this afternoon for a long period of time to get out the pent up energy.
