Where ARE my bon bons?


Today i had to laugh.. i've been talking with some girlfriends who want to be stay at home moms, like are DYING to do the stay at home mom thing. I've been home with my girls since mini me was born. And i know its a privilege! I've always had a side job to give me some sanity UNTIL this last year when i moved out south. I'm adjusting, but long some days for a side job like before..

I wanted to blog today and give those girls a glimpse into a stay at home mom's CRAZY and eventful life!! Every day differs and nothing is ever exactly the same! Its a comedy show!


6:45- alarm goes off
i press snooze.( while thinking, i have to get up to make breakfast and do mini me's hair)


7:00 - i get out of bed and immediately start making pancakes, while talking to mini me.
- remind to brush her teeth
-decided today will be a hot lunch day.
- ask the husband to put money in backpack for lunch.
-keep flipping pancakes

7:20 - made half of pancake batch.
-realize my friends dropping her 9 month old off in 10 min for the day.
- as mini me is eating, i'm curling her hair.
-husband is playing songs on you tube for them while they eat.

7:30
- baby gets here
- still doing mini mes hair

7:50
mini me is watching for bus.
-BUS DOESNT STOP AND KEEPS DRIVING.
- of course, i have 2 babies now..
( thinking of the outcome of the toddler opening the front door and letting 2 dogs out, isnt a good sight)
- carry a kid on each hip while walking mini me across street to catch bus.


Toddler changes.

Baby wants to just be held. i hold him, but the ADD kicks in.

i clean kitchen and dishes.

i sit on couch, baby is crying.. ADD hits again, along with OCD-

i strip bed and throw laundry in, while putting 2 loads away.

Baby wants to eat, i sit and feed him and watch 10 min of DVR ( it takes me up to 3 days to watch ONE hr show!)

Toddler's changed about 4 times by now. IM NOT LYING.

I decide while sitting on couch with baby drinking bottle, i'll email dad.

Baby needs to be changed. Changed and fed, i put him down for nap.

i give dogs their heartguard, and start a quesadilla for the lil muffin.

While that's on the stove i start 2 other projects, and walk into bathroom- about 10-15 min have gone by.. something smells BAD.

OH.MY.GOSH... QUESADILLA IS BURNING.. I MEAN.. BEYOND BURNT. HOUSE STINKS, ALL FANS ON.

more laundry, baby down.

Make christmas list--- think of how to decorate my house for Christmas.

What am i making for dinner tonight?

Sort more laundry.
Did i mention- NO makeup, still in cozies, i may get a shower by 1 pm.

Folks.. its only 10:50- what's in store for the rest of the day..

and i ask: "WHERE ARE MY BON BONS THAT EVERYONE THINKS THE STAY AT HOME MOM EATS ALL DAY EVERY DAY?"!


I'd rather be at work ;)

Open up and say ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-

It has been LONG overdue.. i mean.. LONGGG - after summer trips and school starting, we were able to get the girls into a new dentist. The COOLEST dentist office i've ever been in. Over.THE.TOp... but really, would you expect anything else from me? Sissy went first to show lil muffin that taking pictures of your teeth doesnt hurt-
Lil Muffin kept the thing in her mouth for the pictures UNTIL they took pictures.. SO next time we'll get actual pictures of her teeth ;)
Dental assistant giving them their new toothbrushes and letting them choose their toothpaste to clean their teeth with- on that list, Chocolate and cookie dough were a choice. Boy, were us 80's kids hosed at the dentist !!! what did we have, like THREE choices that included
*Bubble gum
*Cinnamon
*Mint
Seriously, chocolate? good lord, i'd go to get my teeth cleaned like EVERY week!


Once again setting a good example for her sissy!!!
( uh.. lil muffin wasnt so sure of this part, so she got to skip it- i think she may have talked to Grandpa about that.. he HATES the dentist!)

And....... Lil Muffin for her fluoride treatment.. she needed a few helpers for that part- BUT, i will say they told me that they've never seen a child so young so quiet.. they said all the other ones have screamed and freaked out.. something to be said for lil muffin.
And may i say that BOTH girls got an "A" from the Dentist- NO CAVITIES, MY FRIENDS.. NONE!! That means mama & Daddy are doing a good job too!! ( Go me)
