I know I haven't done Not Me! Monday in awhile, but I'm feeling, ahem, guilty. Here's some stuff that did not happen in the Hingley Household this week:
- I did not nearly cry tears of joy on Tuesday when we found out that our second child is a girl. I most certainly was not afraid of having 2 boys under the age of 2, and I am not naive in thinking that it will be easier with one of each!
- I also did not eat cheese fries for dinner twice this week while on my break at Gymboree. I am not addicted to the ooey- gooey, fresh cut, cheesy goodness that is making my mouth water this very moment.
- I did not put about half my paycheck's worth of clothes on hold for my kids...NOPE, NOT ME!
- Another thing that I definitely did not do was take several 2 hour+ naps with William this week. I am not tempted to crawl in bed next to my sleeping babe and snuggle until our heart's content. I also have not been letting William take naps in our bed because it's easier that way. NOT ME!
- Furthermore, I don't have a library book that's a week overdue. I did not laugh so hard that I peed my pants last night. I am not loving this lovely fall weather. I did not continue a day trip on Monday, as planned, even though William got car sick....twice. We did not have to buy him 2 new outfits and completely air out my parent's Montero, nor did I freak out. I also did not participate in a wine tasting on the Northern Neck...I also did not enjoy it (don't freak, I probably had 3 oz. total).
Hmmm....can I think of any other things that a savvy, young, twenty-something mother wouldn't do? Nope, not me!
Enjoyed your Not Me. Mothering is not for sissies, is it? Blessings on your family!
