Mischievous
I’ve been tagged by my pal Adventure Mom to do a Mommy Meme. I figure why not, it’s better than you reading my complaints about the wonderful MI winter we’re having.
- How long have you been a Mom?
5 and a half years - How many children call you Mommy?
Just the one (although I think the dog thinks I’m her mom too) - Girl? Boy? or both?:
both girls if you count the dog - Did you know what you were having?
I was far too excited about having a baby to wait to find out what it was! - How old were you when you became a Mom?
25 - How long were you in labor?
Friday night at 6pm ish my water broke, and she was out by 2:20pm ish on Saturday (It was a LONG process!) - What’s your favorite thing about being a Mom?
Getting the chance to see Clare grow into an amazing little girl and hopefully an amazing woman in the future. She has such style and imagination I can’t wait to see what she’s like in 15 years! - What’s your least favorite thing?
The temper tantrums. Clare is VERY spirited, and when she thinks she heard something or knows something the demon is unleashed! - Do you want more kids?
Some days yes, then the bad days come and it’s a definite NO! I think we’re done though as the bad days seem to outweigh the good ones. - Do you plan on having more soon?
HELL NO! - How many times have you been pee’d on?
If diaper leaks count, then many - other wise I’d have to say none really - Barfed on?
Far too many to count! Clare was a pukey baby around 3-6 months. I think I had more formula on me then in her! - Is your child named after anyone?
Mostly yes - How did you come up with their name?
Clare is after my Grandma (She was Clara, but Brad thought that was too old fashioned - so we comprimised), and Ella is after Ella Fitzgerald (from our love of music of course) - When your child gets in trouble, who is the bad guy?
We both take turns, and when one needs back-up the other one is always there for assistance! - What is the longest you have been away from your children?
We usually take a road trip out to CO in the summer without her, I think one year we were gone for like 14 days or so. It was FABULOUS! -
Bedtime routine?
Clare is sent upstairs to get ready on her own. She goes potty, brushes teeth, picks out her story, and then comes down for her piggy back ride up with Brad and then they read together. -
Are your toes painted?
Nope. They usually don’t get painted until it’s warm enough for sandals. -
Last movie you saw in the theater?
August Rush (IT was AWEFUL!) -
One thing you will not give up just because you’re A mom?
Spending quality time alone, going on dates with Brad, and drinking Martini’s. -
One thing you did give up now that you’re a mom:
I have slight memories of free time and not having to get babysitters to go out. -
Best Mom perk:
The hugs and the laughter -
Snack, you sneak bites from your child?
Not really. Once in a while though if she’s having something and I’m too lazy to get my own snack I will. -
When the kid is napping, you are:
What’s napping? I don’t get that any more. Although I do get school time - during that time I do errands, watch TV that I can’t watch when she’s around, do housework, and the like. -
Where is your child(ren) now?
Watching TV in our bedroom -
Favorite place to buy maternity clothes?
I really didn’t buy maternity clothes. My mother-in-law made mine for me, mostly because I worked and my work shirts were big enough to still fit me so all I needed were brown pants. -
If I could do it over…
I wouldn’t change a thing
Now to tag a few of my favorite mom bloggers - and since most of the ones I know were already tagged, I have no one to tag. However if you do decide to play along, feel free - just link back so I can come read it!
