Did anyone watch Rachael Ray today??? I loved the segment on the book Dirty Little Secrets from Otherwise Perfect Moms.
My first thought was... hey that would have been a great blog title... lol
So it got me thinking (I don't do that often... hahaha). What is my dirty little secret as a mom?? hmmmm....
I thought of two (that I was willing to share)
**I love having time alone, but feel guilty for taking it. So whenever we need something at the store I jump at the chance to go get it. Who knew a trip to the grocery store would be a treat? Who knew I'd get excited to drive my car ALONE??
**There have been many days where I leave Blake in his room after his nap because I want to finish watching a tv show that I have taped. Why is it that as Mom's we feel guilty for watching our own tv shows?
soooooo I put this out to you my loyal readers.... what is your "dirty little secret" as a mom??
i watched that show 2 today!! i am quilty too of leaving N in his crib even if he is awake. if he is playing i figure might as well enjoy a lil extra time. maybe we need to make it a weekly tribute...my qulity pleasure day.
ReplyDeleteI will have to think about this one for a bit, but i'll try to stop by later and share. I'm am sure there are millions lol.

ReplyDeletei too don't run in to get avery when he first wakes up just so he learns that i might not be there in a nanosecond!
i also enjoy the store when im alone and LOVE a girls day and don't miss avery all that much...is that a bad thing?
Ditto and ditto! ;-p
ReplyDeleteHi! Glad the segment has resonated. I have another to add: My five-year old son has been having bad dreams so I use Febreeze and tell him it's a 'bad dream go away spray' and spritz it over and under his bed. Seems to be working!

I had a doctor appointment but had to wait 2 hours to be seen the other day. But I was just enjoying my alone time, even if it was at the doctor's office--LOL!
ReplyDeleteI admit I encourage my kid to take his long nap in the morning because it's more convenient for me as generally I, too, can take a morning nap if he's asleep! I don't want to be a slave to the midday nap!
ReplyDeleteI definatley pull the store card too. My hubby thinks he's helping by picking stuff up for me but I find myself getting ticked at him. Oops! I've also given in to movies in the car lately (only supposed to be for loooooooong trips) just to get a break from Madison's nonstop talking.
ReplyDeleteMy secret....Wy eats way more chicken nuggets than I should admit. At least it is protein, right?
