Crazy Mommy (& Daddy) Therapy Sesson

Boy, I seriously have it *so* together that NONE of these “not me’s” are repeats from previous weeks. Am I the only one, who needs repeated therapy to deal with certain issues??

My most stubborn “issues” are my laundry and dishes. Why-oh-why can I never be completely on top of these two thorns in my side? I’m totally kidding, I hope you know. I always have the sink and counters empty of dishes and the laundry basket…err, I mean the floor clear of clean laundry. NOT!

Prince Charming knows I’m telling on him with this next one. A couple weeks ago, while packing up the car, Prince Charming’s and the stroller’s love-hate relationship did not come to a bitter, hated end. While attempting to collapse the stroller, he did not jam it, force it, break it or whatever he did not do to it. The stroller did not come out of the situation rendered as completely useless. Nope! That would never happen around here. And after many engineering-esque phrases like, “oh, it’s no big deal” and “it’s no problem to fix”, the stroller is not still sitting in the living room in before-said “useless” state. Nope! Not at our house!

Mommyhood definitely brings with it brain challenges! Seriously, folks with all the brain power it takes to be a mom, you’d think that God would have blessed us with more brain cells than fewer after bearing a child! Here is one of my crazy mommy moments.
I did not stay up until after 1:00 AM one night getting up and checking on my Little Man (like every 10 minutes) to make sure he was breathing. He has not been becoming more mobile in his crib and he certainly has not been burrowing his face into the bumper pad. I was not beside myself with anxiety and uncertainty of what I could do. The solution to the problem did not finally hit me with lightning bolt intensity or maybe Type A lightbulb intensity (I hate the lack of ambiance of “energy saving” CFLs, by the way). Taking out the bumper pad would have been way too fast and simple, so that most definitely could not be the solution. I would never, ever do something so insanely simple at 1:00 AM. Nope! Not me!

I hope you have a wonderful, happy “Not Me” Monday!! For more torture, I mean therapy, vist My Charming Kids!

  1. hi there, i just wanted to let you know i popped by your blog 🙂

    hey about worrying if your child is breathing, why dont you get an angelcare monitor?? you put it under their crib mattress and if the child stops breathing for 20 seconds you'll be alerted immediately..(i LOVE it… use it every single time i put my baby down to sleep)

  2. Thank you for leaving such a sweet comment on my blog! I love meeting new bloggin' friends. Your "Not Me's" cracked me up. I definitely feel your pain about the dishes and laundry. Your baby boy is just precious!!

  3. Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's nice to "meet" you too! Your blog is too cute.

    How do you get your post titles, dates and sidebar titles to be that cute font?
