Keepin' It Real

Alright, a very advanced blogger and wonderful fellow homeschooler has created "Keepin it Real". Life is REALly not a fairy tale and REALly hilarious (usually at our own expense). Check out her latest topic "New Stupid Mom Moments" here:



All day I've tried to remember some great stupid new mom moments, but I think many of them were mentally blocked. So here is a brief review of the insanity.

1. Every night, any item that was related to the baby in any way was boiled in a big pot. You've got to sanitize people!

2. Going to the store or running away from home? Hard to tell when you can't leave home without AT LEAST these items: diapers (6), wipes, change of clothes, soapy-type wipes (you never know when you may need an emergency bath), lotion (for after emergency bath), burp towels (2), diaper cream, first-aid items and toys (that one-month old might get board if she happens to be awake). If air travel was necessary, our first diaper bag would not have made it as a carry-on.

3. Nervous about going out alone with your new baby? Trying to eat healthy and lose that baby weight? Well, for a minimum purchase of $20, Jason's Deli will deliver. So go ahead, order yourself four sandwiches and watch the fat melt away.

4. And the stupidest of all...........not taking a nap every time time baby fell asleep. That option is only available with the first one.

You're right about that 4th one but there are ways round it(not totally recomended!!) like "why don't we all play I'm the baby and you all get to put mummy to bed on the couch and stay right beside me incase I wake up"...just dozing off when I hear 3rd son say to 1st son"this is a really boring game, lets leave her here and go cook some mud pies inside"!!
