Not Me Monday

Well it’s still Monday right? I mean it’s been a long day and all, but it is still Monday right? Just double checking with ya’ll since I sometimes lose track of the days! Okay now that we’ve established that I’m here to let you know that this ‘Not Me’ Monday, hosted by MckMama, ya know where you tell everyone everything you’re too embarrassed too admit in normal fashion!

 

Let’s see it’s Monday and I did not almost miss that fact again. When I awoke at 6:30 this morning to my power being out I did not freak that it was because we owe them money, ya know cause we never get behind in our bills and all! I did not get up and get dressed and go use my dead cell phone in the car to call the electric company. I wasn’t slightly relieved to find it was a widespread outage and not my fault. I wasn’t still slightly annoyed that the problem wasn’t scheduled to be fixed until 8:00, in reality it didn’t get fixed until after 9!  I didn’t go back to sleep until it came back on either!

I don’t want to remind you that I’ve got a giveaway going on that ends Friday at midnight EST, so enter now!

I have not been letting my children stay up until 10 PM or later! They are not up right now waiting for me to make them get in bed and brush Curly’s teeth.  I did not just put Baby Boy to sleep a minute ago because he was being ridiculously cranky, crying for ‘teef, teef’ because he wanted to keep on brushing his teeth himself as he walked around! He did not throw himself on the ground or stomp his feet, this didn’t happen because I, the mom, didn’t get him to sleep sooner!

I did not just pause to those kiddos in bed! While brushing teeth Curly didn’t say his spit looked like giant throw-up from tiny giant! Curly and PJ didn’t then come out and start playing. PJ didn’t pretend to be a raccoon news reporter and Curly didn’t pretend to report the farting news! Nope, none of that happened in my house!

He did not want to pose with the dental floss!

And right before all our bedtime craziness we didn’t take pictures with my 16 yr old nephew Brandon who is leaving at 5AM(my hubby is taking him to the airport) in the morning to go back to San Antonio to live with his Mom. He didn’t come over for a late breakfast dinner!  His blog link may or may not be rated PG. We aren’t going to miss him one tiny bit!

Cute Not Me post! I completely understand about the teef, teef, thing. Jacob likes to walk around with his tooth brush too. Trying to teach a 17 month old toddler to stay in the bathroom is not that easy even if it is not way past his bedtime. :)

Yea, my kids haven't been staying up til midnight with me every night. Nope, cuz I'm a better mom than that... yes I am!

Now regarding your comment, I had a boss that used to greet me every morning when I arrived at working singing: ♪ "There she is... Miss AmERICA!" ♫

It made me smile.every.time!

Your kids are adorable! Love the "teef, teef" part. That is so cute. Love the curls too.

I have allergies and don't always wear makeup. So when I do, I rub everything in my eyes, lol!
