Isn't it refreshing to be brutally honest about the things that really happen in our day to day lives? Brutally honest in a not me, I did not kind of way, that is. So in the interest of almost full disclosure, here's what happened this week:I did not leave my six-month old in pajamas the entire day. Not me! That would just be lazy.
Just a few days later I certainly did not leave my baby in the same clothes for approximately 36 hours because that would be gross.
I did not lock myself out of the house with the baby inside again and have to retrieve the spare key to get back inside. I'm not that forgetful, right?
At the craft store with my husband I absolutely did not notice that may baby spit up directly on the linoleum floor. And I most certainly did not just walk away with him because we had no burp cloth with us to clean it up. That would just be disgusting.
I did not blow my diet by eating a piece of pie nearly every evening this week, because I have unlimited willpower.
It absolutely did not snow here this morning! Fall is not coming to a close and winter is certainly not on it's way!
I did not participate in a 20 mile bike ride for breast cancer in the rain, cold and snow. I also did not just practically beg you to go look at my post about it below.
I absolutely did not just look at MckMama's blog and freak out because she posted Not Me! Monday before I was finished with my post and there were already over 60 links up on her blog carnival. That would mean that I am obsessed with my blog and getting comments, and I'm not that pathetic, right?
Speaking of my blog, I completely redesigned my blog all by myself! My sister absolutely did not help in any way, shape or form.
Too funny. I am crazy about posts & comments too.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever locked myself out of the house but I can Never find my keys so that is probably why. I hate to admit this, but I leave my door unlocked a lot. (I must live around trust worthy people or my things aren't all that great, because nothing has ever happened.)
ReplyDeleteI am so lucky that our front door cannot lock without a key because that would so be me. Of course I have Never locked each and everyone of my four children in the car on seperate occasions.... AFTER buckling them into their carseats. And I didn't do it with my 1st child with the enigine running.
ReplyDeleteI have to get help with my blog all the time, which is why I haven't changed my header since I started blogging...hopefully I will soon and have new pics of the kids up there (we're doing fall pics next weekend!) I love getting comments on my posts as well...makes me get all warm and fuzzy inside..he he! And your blog looks great by the way!
ReplyDeleteI did not get excited because not only was I in the top 100 at MacMama's blog but only #26!!
ReplyDeleteI have never left my child in pajamas for more than a day never...
we don't buy school clothes at our house we buy new pajamas because we homeschool LOL
I have an absolute fear of locking myself out of the house. My 2 year old shouts, "Got your keys?" every time I shut the door behind us!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blog! I'm so glad your sister didn't help you at all!
Snow already? Yep, that calls for pie. Only fair. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, I love the new look!! It's super cute!!! I'm so impressed you did it yourself, I wish I could do that! Too funny you locked yourself out of the house again, I mean you didn't, but it would be funny if you did! hehe
ReplyDeletethe blog looks cute! and I totally get wrapped up in the increased hits and comments that not me Monday brings
ReplyDeleteI would never leave my 6 month old in the same footie pajamas for that long either! That would be either very irresponsible of me, or I really think she is entirely too cute in said pajamas.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have never ignored baby spit up on the floor at the grocery store either! Oh no, I most certainly stop and wipe up spit up with the nasty dirty tissue in my jacket pocket.
Oh, and I have never had to call our real estate agent to open up the lockbox with our house key in it because I locked our whole family out of the house. That would be silly and irresponsible.
YOU are too funny! I can relate to the pie eating contest! :) I think you focused on the things that matter....good for you and the bike ride! Love your new blog look no matter who did it :>)
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming over to my blog! It did not make me extremely happy! And, I do not hope you come back! (by the way...this was my first kid free night. No one will keep them both at one time!)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! Isn't it refreshing to see that it isn't "just us" that does certain things?!
ReplyDeleteI too have locked myself out of the house so many times that my hubby has given copies of our key to the neighbors!! This last time, I was standing on our front deck, in my nighttime t-shirt, waiting for our girls to get on the school bus. I tried to make it back in the house before the bus pulled up but the door was locked! I was stuck outside at 7:25 a.m. with nothing but a t-shirt on! I WAS NOT about to walk to our neighbors house so I waited until they came out to get their paper, almost an hour later, and asked them for some help...so embarassing!
Your blog is great& thanks again :)
That's a great list! James and I spend half the day in pajamas. :)
ReplyDeleteCute blog! And thanks for stopping by mine! Hope you come back :)
ReplyDeleteHilarious! And I LOVE the new look!! Very awesome. Now go eat some more pie :-)
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find your layout?? it really is cool.
ReplyDeleteI was freaking out too..
ReplyDeleteI was fairly early and there were already bunches before me.. crazy.. and I try to post on everyone but there are so many more this week.. Ack.
I like your new look!!
ReplyDeleteYour new look is fantastic! You did such a great job.
ReplyDeleteMan, I can sympathize with the pie every night kinda diet...We could all get used to that right....Isn't that why we blog? So we can get computer validation of how cool we are...that is why I am addicted to blogging...and all the new sites I encountered today! Love your site, and hey we all have days where are kids are in the same clothes...heck mine is 4 and he stays in them until HE changes...I roll with it. =)
ReplyDeleteOh how funny!! I can related to LOTS of stuff that you didn't do! LOL
ReplyDeleteI have never left my kids in the same clothes for 24 hours or more. And I most certainly have never stayed in the same clothes for 24 hours. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
I've never done any of those things either. lol! Like the new look!
ReplyDeleteI'm just sayin...you broke even this week on the pie since you did the 20 mile bike ride..right?
ReplyDeleteAnd..you are just starting you child early having a great pajama day...I love those myself!
Oh I love this post. I totally have not done the same thing with the baby vomit in the store and I think that I did not leave pee on the floor of a store either.
ReplyDeleteSister's are useless like that aren't they.
ReplyDeleteHappy backwards day!
By the way you are allowed to have a piece of pie every now and then just jump back on the healthy eathing band wagon! ;)
Your new look is adorable and this post cracked me up!!
ReplyDeleteNo, not YOU!! Ha! Love reading this blog so far...
