Oh Roomba how I love thee.

I've been swooning, researching and admiring for weeks and finally decided it was time.  I bought the "Pet Series" version because isn't having a toddler almost the same as a pet?  Some people will think that sounds horrible... "How can you compare having a beautiful child to having a pet?!"
Let's see.  The trail of crumbs he leaves throughout the house, along with grass, dirt and whatever else he can get into is probably equal to that of a pet and the messes they are able to create.

So, I did it.  I bought the iRobot Roomba Pet Series 532 and I'm in love. 
 
"A little extravagant don't you think", you may ask?  And to that I say:  No way.

I can get Austin's room vacuumed while giving him a bath because it doesn't require me to actually do it.  I press the clean button and off she goes.  Best part:  When she's done, she goes back to her charging base - in the dining room.  Yes, a smarty she is.
