Not me!, Monday



It's one of my most favorite bloggy times of the week....and it is so much fun! "Not Me!" Monday is sponsored by one of my favorite bloggers, MckMama. It's a great way to get all those little things off your chest that you totally did NOT do this week. I love reading the others, too. It makes me feel better about some of the less than attractive funny things that happen in my little life. I'm all about being real, y'all! So, here goes....

I am NOT getting sick, I am NOT getting sick, I am NOT getting sick!!!  I am not having chills and body aches and I did NOT wake up a couple of times in the night in a cold sweat.  I do NOT have to take care of 3 children all day long because there is no school today.  

Right now...Greer is not taking her morning nap.  I am NOT letting Reeves watch as much TV as his little heart desires, and I did NOT just put Lucy into a warm bath to play so that I could lay here on my bed (don't worry, I can NOT see her) and rest for a little bit!  

My sweet mom did NOT offer to come down and help me out and I was NOT crazy enough to turn her down!!!  I am NOT holding out hope that I will feel better in a little bit, and that I will NOT just lay around today in my pjs letting the kids do whatever hits their fancy (which will probably NOT include staying in their pjs all day too)!

And now, here are the things that I had NOT planned to share with 
you about my life as a wife, mother, and housekeeper extraordinaire!

I did NOT pour an entire bottle of hydrogen peroxide on my son's bed after he wet it on not 1 but 2 occasions this week.  I was NOT freaked out by the act of pouring 24 ounces of liquid into his MATTRESS.  I was NOT shocked that it actually worked and now he does NOT have a stai-free and stinky-free place to lay his sweet little head!  

I did NOT decide to run my van through the gas station carwash after picking the girls up from preschool and Mother's Day Out, and I did NOT end up regretting that tiny little decision.  Greer did NOT completely LOSE it and scream her little 1 year old head off the ENTIRE time.  I did NOT feel like the worst mother in the world when I remembered that Lucy did NOT do the exact same thing at that age.  I'm a winner!!!

What did you NOT do this week?!
Head over to My Charming Kids and join in the fun!

oh i hope you start feeling better. it's awful to be sick when you have children to watch.
the carwash was too funny. i did that this week too and was fearful my 1 year old wouldn't like it either. thankfully he didn't scream the whole time!

oh, you'll have to tell me more about the hydrogen peroxide thing. My son's diaper leaks often and his mattress is well, NOT stinky! lol

Awwwe the care wash. We went though the same thing with our boys. Sometimes you just forget, or not think about it. Too funny

And remember you are NOT sick!

And oh my gosh I thought my kid was the only one who didn't like the car wash?!?! I loved them as a kid, so I just don't get it!

Cute NMM's!
