Houseguests of the Scariest Kind

Next week, my 18 year old graduates from high school!  That is all very exciting but I can't even think about it because I am so busy freaking out about having my mother and mother in law in the same house.  That has never happened.  My children have literally never been with both of their grandmothers at the first time. 

My oldest is quite the brown noser and I'm pretty sure he is worried about how he is going to make them both think they are the best grandmother's ever when they are in the same room.

These two women are so very different.  My mother in law is a big shopper, is 10 years older than my mom but is very active in the community and also extremely opinionated.  My mother who hates to shop, is a practicing hermit,  and is also opinionated but is much quieter about it. 

The last time they saw each other was at our wedding.  My MIL was not too thrilled about the prospect of her sweet baby boy spending forever with me (we are better now...thankfully) and my mom thought he was lucky to get me.  No fighting....just a lot of ignoring went on.  I had beer....and all my friends....so I just had fun!

My boys are pigs....in fact....so is my mother in law's sweet baby boy.  I am scared that they are going to have to use the boys bathroom....and feel like I should replace all the baseboards around the toilet before they get here.    My mother raised 3 girls....who although messy.....it's not quite the same.  Hairspray all over the bathroom and urine all over the bathroom are 2 very different experiences.  The boys bedrooms smell like feet....so it will take a couple of cans of febreeze, some bleach, and a few garbage bags to make them grandma ready.

I'm off to clean baseboards.
