Today is Carpet Day and I am very excited. My bedroom carpet is hideous. Its not properly fitted. Its covered in marks and dirt and burns. And it clashes awfully with the walls. But by the time I get home today it will be replaced with a lovely new one. The littlest bedroom is also being carpetted. This means that Jackson Zebedee Sylvester McMonkey McBean Wibblyfish (current and only name suggestion for the babyfish) will have his own little room where we can dump all the baby-related stuff we seem to have accumulated already!

Last night some friends came round to help clear the furniture from our bedroom. It is now all piled into the guest room and is only accessible by my WF (I am now too large to fit through the tiny gap left between the door and the chest of drawers). This made getting dressed rather more complicated than usual.

'Mr MF, please could you get me that dress with pink flowers on? You know the one I mean. Its a maternity dress. Its pink. Oooh, stop, thats it.'
'That dress is not pink. Its white.' says Mr WF
'Ok. I now need a vest top. No not that one. Thats a nice vest, I need one to go under the dress. A white one. Or a pink one. No, that one is too small. Try on looking in the pile of clothes on the bed. What about in the other drawer. There must be one somewhere. Ok, that one will have to do.'

I'll spare you the underwear conversation that continued in the same vein. Needless to say, getting dressed took a long time today! But its all ok because when I get home there will be new carpet. And I will roll on it.
