Not Me Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

 

Kind of an uneventful week, but here are a few:

 

I did not kill who knows how many ants and then just leave them on the floor until the next time I vacuumed. Gross, who does that?

Don't let my youngest tell you that she sleeps in a pack-n-play in the playroom at night. She has a perfectly good bed in her own bedroom. I would not move her upstairs just to get some peace and quiet so she can be sure to get a good night's sleep.

I was NOT heard begging and whining at my husband for a sweet little dachshund puppy over the weekend. My mom and brothers did not each get their own on Sunday. No way, I know how much work a new puppy would be.

Not Me Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Here we are again...the day when we get to come completely clean about all of the things we did not do throughout the week. It is hosted by MckMama over at My Charming Kids. Head on over there (after you comment on mine, of course!) and check out lots more mom confessions. And feel free to play along! You'll find all of the rules and details at the link above.

So this week it was not below zero most of the week, and I did not decide on the coldest day (Friday, -19) that we absolutely had to get out of the house before we all went crazy and did or said things we shouldn't. And that decision did not result in this poor baby's bright red cheeks (they're fine now!)...

And quite possibly not this as well. (but I sure hope not, because I will feel really guilty if it did!)

I was not texting my friend Pam while I was driving to my mom's house the other day. That's just dangerous! I am much smarter than that...ummm...yeah.

I did not get to go on a date with my very cute husband on Saturday night...and we did not have a great time :) Thanks Mom and Dad for not keeping the girlies for us!!!

And right now I am not typing my "Not Me's" while my 5 yr old is whining at me to make her another pb&j. And I am not totally ignoring her so I can get this finished before MckMama puts up Mr. Linky. I'm a very attentive mommy...I never ignore my kids...

`And just for the record...this is not my adorable nephew!

Please leave me a comment -- I love comments!!!

Not Me Monday #3

It's Monday!!!! Go here for the details if you want to play along.

This was a trying week to say the least :) I did not totally lose it with my children on more than one occasion because they absolutely would not listen to me.

I did not let my kids play "baseball" in the house because I just wanted to lay on the couch and not have them bugging me. Nope, not me!

And I most definitely did not hear my 4 year old tell me to "close the freakin' door" this afternoon. Oops :)

But it did not get better! We did not meet a new friend on Friday, and it was not Pam from You're Gonna Miss This! We did not have a ton of fun and are definitely not looking forward to meeting up again sometime soon.

Well, MOST of us did not have fun :) Poor Abbie was upset because we were at McDonald's and not swimming at the hotel.

However, Jadon and Adelle did not get along fabulously (until Jadon started messing with her "house"!) , and Adelle has not not stopped talking about him since we came home. (wow, that was confusing to type!)

And this little girl is not a complete doll :)

Tonight we did not spend 3 hours sledding at a friends house and my 3 girlies are not sound asleep in their beds. That's sure not how I like it :)

Have a great week and be sure to check out MckMama's blog for more great NMM posts.

Not Me Monday #2

It's Monday...which means it's time for "Not Me Monday" again. This wonderful free therapy is hosted by MckMama. You can get all the rules and details by clicking here...and feel free to play along!

I did not allow my children to watch Follow That Bird 2 times in a row, just because I didn't want to listen to them whine, and it was easier to give in. Because it's not an 80 minute long movie. That would just be ridiculous!

I did not buy yet another game for the Leapfrog baby system, because it was not an awesome price ($5.99) when I went grocery shopping. No, these kids absolutely do not need anymore toys!

I did not just sit and laugh to myself at my 4 year old trying to squeeze glue onto a piece of paper, all the while being very overly dramatic and acting like she's killing herself trying to get it out. No, I jumped right up to help her....

I did not take Abbie's yarn braids out and then silently curse myself while trying to comb out her hair this morning before school. I mean, come on...I really enjoy combing her hair and listening to her scream and cry ;)

I hope you all have a great day! Please leave me comments!

My First "Not Me Monday" Post!!!

Yea! Not Me Monday, hosted by the one and only, MckMama! I have never posted one of these before, but I feel like I need to be honest (or not) this week!. If you want to play along, here are the rules. So here we go!

I did not tell my middle daughter that she was "fine" and to "go back to bed" when she told me that her tummy hurt. I'm a very compassionate mama and would never just send my child to bed after she had been up 5 times previously whining about this and that. Nope, not me!

I was not so caught up on Facebook that when I heard what sounded like water spilling out of a cup, I did not almost yell at my daughter to stop messing around and for goodness sakes, get back to bed! I mean come on, I don't yell!

For some reason I did not decide to look at my daughter and see that what I thought was water spilling, was in fact her throwing up all over the living room floor. Umm, no, not in my house, because I'm a compassioante mama who would have taken her daughter into the bathroom at the first sign of a tummy-ache.

And all of this should not have been a surprise to me because my oldest daughter did not just puke at G'ma and G'pa's earlier in the evening. No, I listen to my kids and I'm always on top of things.

That was fun! Please leave me a comment if you enjoyed my honesty :) Love you all!!!
