Extreme Makeover: Mommy Edition

You know how it takes the threat of visitors to really clean house?

If you don't know what I'm talking about, can you just smile and say you do, so that I feel domestically adequate?

Anyway. I'm pretty sure that theory applies to new mommies, too.

We're having professional photos done on Saturday. This has prompted a mad rush for a personal cleanup. Thursday is a manicure, pedicure and massage using a gift certificate that expired on Monday (but I pulled out the "I have a new baby" card *ahem* --so they're still accepting it). Friday is a much needed haircut. So hopefully on Saturday I won't be wearing my favorite jeans, with an old t-shirt from a school I once taught at, and a headband/ponytail combination, which is the look I was sporting today.

And if I am...I'll just tell everyone I have a new baby.
