Ok, so we all have them. I have decided its time to stop keeping them to myself in hopes that other mommies will realize that none of us are perfect. Here are my dirty little secrets for the week. What are yours?
~Sometimes, I hide. Yep, I do. I hide in the bathroom for a few after T gets home and just sit and relax in the floor. Or I hide in the laundry room so I can eat my snack without sharing to the little outreached hands that automatically appear when I put something to my mouth.
~D still wears a pull up to bed. As a matter of fact, for the last few days, D still wears the SAME pull up to bed. See, he hasn't had an accident at night in a few months and when I hit that last few pull ups a week or so ago, I promised myself I wasn't buying any more. When he got to the last one, I couldn't do it. So I put it on him the next night. And then the next. I just keep telling myself its wasteful to throw it out.
~I have broken my own rule three out of four days this week about television. I usually limit D's watching to two shows a day. Thats it. Usually one before nap and one before bed to kind of help him chill and relax. This week though, he has been at camp in the mornings and I have been letting him watch whatever he wants after nap time. I have an excuse for this one though. My sister comes in tonight from NYC and I have been trying desperately to catch up on laundry... Ok?
~Yesterday, at lunch time, I fed my baby the bits out of my soup that I didn't like. Like the celery? No one really likes celery in soup do they? Well, K does. So there. At least he is too little to care anyway. I also let him sample one of D's chicken nuggets. These are things that would have appalled me with my first. Some how its not so bad with the little Hulk.
~ I have been keeping a secret. From my mother and all of my social networking because it might get back to my mother. You have any idea how hard that is when you are so excited about something you might literally just explode? Its like torture. I deserve a medal I'm telling you. Soon, internets, soon. (No, it doesn't involve more babies so don't go getting all excited.) If you read closely, you might just have already figured it out.
Thats me for now
good stuff!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could join in the fun... soon, though!

Is it your sister?? Is her visit a surprise?! If so, congrats on keeping it! And I will admit that I'm guilty of at LEAST one of your other confessions. ;) You're a great mommy and you know it...'nuff said.
ReplyDeletehahaha you sound just like me!! It's great reading about someone else's confessions! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ladies! Its nice to know I am not alone in the craziness and shortcuts of motherhood!
ReplyDeleteI hide tooo! Sometimes I hide the laundry too! I love reading other mommies confessions. We are all alike in more ways than we realize. Thanks for visiting my blog. Now following you back
ReplyDeleteOh the first three are SO ME!!!!!!!! Bwuahahahahaha! My five-year-old started wetting the bed so I have been putting her in Pull-Ups along with her 3-year-old sister (who always wakes up dry). So I make them reuse diapers, too, if they're still dry. You're not alone!
ReplyDeleteSounds about right, I do almost all of those, too!! My 4 year old still wears pull-ups to bed, even though he's been potty-trained since he was 2. He still has occasional accidents at night, and I don't feel like changing his sheets that often...lol.So don't feel bad, every Mommy has "secrets."
