Waiting for babies

We now have guinea pigs. A boy named Butterscotch, and two girls, Sugar and Darth Vader. Darth Vader is pregnant (lol) and due any day now. I was up several times last night checking on her to see if there were babies yet. I'm very worried...I'm afraid she's gonna die or the babies are or will die...I'm obsessing I know, but would you expect anything less from me. When I did get a bit of sleep, I dreemed of guinea Pigs and other baby animals. Ugh...she better hurry up and have those babies...

The kids love the piggies, especially Butterscotch, he's got the best personality. The girls are shy and reserved, he's a bit of an explorer and likes to play. And even thought I'm pretty sure I'm allergic to them, I'm convinced that every kid should have a guinea pig. That could just be deep seeded childhood issues-I always wanted one and never got one...of course my little brother has a rabbit that has it's own room but whatever...

Changing subjects I was reading an artical today about mother hood guilt-about how we need to make a list of the things we do that we don't (I'll repeat that) don't feel guilty about. I could make a list as long as blogger would allow about what I feel guilty about but to list what I dont' feel guilty about-that's tough. I'm gonna give it a whirl:

1. I don't feel guilty for making my kids responcable for thier dirty laundry and dishes.
2. I don't feel guilty for taking my kids to the library so often the librarians are getting to know us.
3. I don't feel guilty for letting my preschoolers play guitar hero even though it's rated T for Teens.

That's all I got, it took me about 5 minutes to come up with those. I'm very temped to list the things I do feel guilty about but that's not the point. Maybe that can be my next post ;)
