Confession #2: Being a stay at home mommy of 3 is hard, very hard.
Confession #3: I'm exhausted. Like realllly exhausted. Like crawl into bed at 9:30 pm bone weary and convinced that it has to be some time in the wee hours of the morning cause I am so tired exhausted.
Confession #4: My house is in various states of disaster. Just about the minute I get 1 room or closet all cleaned out and organized, there seems to be another room that has exploded piles of junk everywhere. It's never ending and I'm kind of over it at this point so if I invite you over, please don't look in the closets ok?
Confession #5: We never invite people over who aren't under 5 ft tall.
Confession #6: I wear yoga pants most days of the week. I don't do yoga. Ever.
Confession #7: I had Charley 9 months ago and I am not even remotely close to being in pre-pregnancy clothes. Not. Even. Close. But re-read #5 and you'll see why most days I push this from my mind as I eat fistfuls of goldfish.
Confession #8: Hallie is 2.5 and she tells me when she has gone to the bathroom in her diaper, she brings me a new diaper, lays down, and spreads her legs to be changed. I'm in denial that she's ready for potty training cause I flat don't want to. Maybe she'll potty train herself?
Confession #9: I forget everything about 5 seconds after it happens. Everything. From T-ball practices, to events we're supposed to attend, to well....what was I saying?
Confession #10: I don't ever go to the bathroom by myself. I always have an audience. I guess I put on a good show.
Confession #11: When I get a rare moment by myself I go and walk around target and pretend I'm on vacation.
Confession #12: Actually going on vacation, feels a lot like work and not at all like vacation.
Confession #13: I have a problem with caffeine. Actually scratch that, I have a problem without caffeine.
Confession #14: Ben & I used to be fun. We're not anymore. But here in about 18 years, watch out!!!
Confession #15: The doorbell rings at our house and my kids run to the door excited for pizza!
Confession #16: I make up fun things to do with the kids so that I don't have to clean my house.
Confession #17: I started trying to catch up on my blog this morning but decided I was so far behind that I'd just write this instead, it's more fun.
Confession #18: One of my kids is yelling "mommy" right now and I'm pretending I don't hear it...They'll come find me...
Confession #19: She found me.
Confession #20: Time to go back to real life.
I may be way behind on life, I may be very exhausted, I may have absolutely no social life. I may be more jiggly than I'd like and not nearly as fashionable as I used to be but my kids tell me I'm sooooo pretty every day, they give me hugs & kisses and tell me I'm the best mom ever (granted they've never had another one but I'll still take it!) So when ya wonder why I'm so behind on blogging...it's cause I'm building forts, making memories, wearing yoga pants and forgetting just about everything else besides being a mommy.
Confession #21: I really am committed to catching up on blogging, it's just gonna take awhile but I'm on it!!! :)

This had me laughing so loud!!! This is hilarious! You do such a GREAT job with your whole family. And, at the age my kids are now.....I still get interrupted in the bathroom.....
You are such a funny girl. When you quit making popsicle chalk and cow costumes why don't you do stand up?
That was hilarious. I have said it before and I will say it again - you need to be this generations Erma Bombeck. You need to do a column for one of your local newspapers. No telling how far that could take you. We have a young Mom that writes for the Shreveport Times and she is widely followed. Remember in Julia and Julia how she get started with her cooking blog? Start by submitting your blog. After they read it they will ask you to submit on a regular basis. :-)
That was a typo. It was supposed to be Erma Bombeck
Love your blog. Seriously, you should write a book in all that spare time you have. This is so funny! Sad to say true but really funny. Love you all!

Ok, that was hilarious, because its true. I spent yesterday cleaning out Lucas and Kyle's closet. This morning, I opened Joel's closet and a toy fell out and hit me. Literally, exploding piles of junk. Glad you're having fun and keeping a sense of humor. One day soon we need to get together. :)
