Confessions of a normal mom...

These are a few of the confessions I dare admit online. And only a few for fear of being turned in for child abuse! Haha!! (that's not really funny and it's also not really true!)

1. If me, and the 2 youngest kids don't have anywhere to go on certain days, we won't get dressed until the afternoon, if we even get dressed at all!! (usually we stay in our jammies)

2. We have cereal for dinner sometimes. I don't know about anyone else, but I run out of dinner ideas, even though I have a list on my computer, and sometimes I just don't feel like making anything!

3. I will put my boys in the shower and let them play while I sit down and take a break! Sometimes they're in there for a while! (30 min)

4. They love going next door and playing at the neighbor's house, and she doesn't mind, so I'll let them go for the whole day sometimes. (I can clean, shower, work-out, or have a nap. It's a nice rest for me, but I think she's too nice and won't send them home even when she's sick of them!)

5. I will run to the boys school right before lunch starts to take them lunches or lunch money because I forgot to do it the night before. Which leads me to #6.

6. Sometimes, (probably too often) my boys set their alarm clock, get up and get ready for school and come tell me they're leaving... and I'm still in bed!! (That's why I run them lunch later!) (And in my defense, I do have a fatigue issue, but still, I do feel bad for this)

7. I don't check the boys backpacks often enough. Sometimes I open them, and papers are spilling out!! (with very old dates on them, oops...)

8. I have let my kids eat cake, ice cream, doughnuts, or cookies for breakfast. But not all on the same day, and definately not every day!!!

9. We HATE bedtime. Sometimes, when the boys keep getting out of bed, we put them on the porch and lock the door and tell them to find a new house to live in or to go up to the mountains and live with the wolves. (they aren't stupid though, they either run around to the back door and sneak back in, or they go to the neighbors) We've also given up and let them run wild until midnight. That one backfires for days, though!

10. When our boys are making fun of each other, ie. 'you like kirstin', 'you have a potato head', we don't always get mad and tell them to stop, sometimes we join in!! :/ (don't worry, it sounds cruel, but in the end, everyone is laughing)

Well, there ya go! My February post. 'Confessions of a normal mom' at least what is normal in our house!!

I would LOVE to read some of my fellow bloggers confessions, so I am tagging everyone on my whole blog list!! I'll be checking in....
