Not me!, Monday


A LUCY addition



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 can NOT believe how hilarious Lucy can be sometimes, and I am NOT amazed by some of the questions that come out of her little mouth. These are NOT a couple of the questions she has come up with lately....

"Mommy, is E.T. a turtle?" and "Daddy, what animal does Coca-Cola come from?"
hmmmm.....

While I was washing dishes Saturday morning, I did NOT send Lucy up to check on Greer when I heard her fussing on the monitor. Lucy did NOT run back down and announce that....

"Mommy, Greer has something red all over her head and she
smells really bad!!!"

I did NOT go up to Greer's room to find dried vomit mixed with tiny bits of catfood and raisins all over her head, pjs, and entire crib. It did NOT make Lucy gag and almost vomit up the carrots she had eaten for breakfast.

And NO, I had NOT given Lucy free reign of the fridge so that she would give me just 10 more minutes of sleep, and she did NOT choose baby carrots and peanut butter. She also did NOT spill an entire bag of shredded cheese all over the kitchen floor trying to prepare breakfast for herself.

I have NOT spent the better part of the past week working with Lucy on her interpretive dance moves (thanks so much Charcey)!. We have NOT come up with some fabulous motions for "Awesome God" and "Life's What You Make It" (by none other than Hannah Montana) as well as tweaking our "Testify to Love" routine. We may sell tickets when we get it all just perfect!

Lucy has NOT discovered makeup this week (well, she has always been curious, but this is taking it to a whole new level)! She does NOT also have some sort of "hording" issue when it comes to stuffing various bags and purses with treasures from around the house. I was NOT just a little bit irritated when I discovered that she had swiped 2 of my brand new makeup brushes and stuffed them in a purse that she later left at our friend Christine's house. A few minutes later, I discovered that my favorite eyebrow brush was NOT also missing, and when I asked her about that one, she did NOT say....

"Oh, don't worry Mommy. That one is out in the yard...I'll be right back." pause "Here you go..."
She did NOT return to hand me a sopping wet eyebrow brush straight from the front yard!

I do NOT love my girl with all my heart, soul, and mind, and I do NOT look forward to kissing her perfect little face each and every morning.

what everyone else has been up to this week!

Tee hee...just found that purse this morning and thought it was fancy enough to be Lucy's! I also thought what a nice blush brush that was to be in a child's purse! I will put it with Reeve's game. Thank you for coming Sat night. It meant a lot to us! Love, Christine

Hi...I just happened to click on a random Mr Linky link from MCKmama and found that our daughters have the same name! Very cool...

Why did you guys choose to name her Lucy? Is she actually a Lucille?

We named ours Lucy (Lucille) for a couple of reasons, one because I REALLY love the name and wanted something that was traditional and a little old school. The other is because I have a very old, close family friend named Lucille.

Anyway, thanks for sharing your not me's...feel free to swing by my blog :)

Lucy is such a riot! You must have a permanent smile on your face, Megan!

I'm so glad you got to spend the afternoon with the Henley's. It sounded like a lot of fun and I'm sure it was an encouragement to them.

Oh the last one made me laugh so hard. Little girls are the best. I will be praying for Greer tomorrow!

I couldn't help but giggle over Lucy's self-constructed breakfast! It made me remember something I hadn't thought of in YEARS--I was the family early bird until I was in high school (when I started sleeping late--sometimes 'til EIGHT) and when I was about Lucy's age, my mom just couldn't take me standing next to her bed poking her at 5 a.m. on Saturdays demanding breakfast and cartoons. So Dad showed me how to turn on the TV for myself and Mother would leave a cup of juice and a cup of milk on the lowest shelf in the fridge on Friday night, along with a pre-filled bowl of dry cereal on the kitchen table. You tell Lucy that I said 'Early Birds RULE!'
