Copy Cat Confessional

I am going to be a copy cat and do a little mom confessional. A couple of my friends who keep a blog have posted weekly confessionals detailing some of their funny moments as a mom or "fail" moments as mom. "Fail" is in quotes because these ladies are fabulous moms but are brave enough to be honest about the less glamorous moments. Most blogs (including mine) are mostly positive but sometimes it is refreshing to see that most mommas do not have it all together. Confessions: 1. My car is a dump. Yep...I could care less about keeping it clean. There are toys, snack wrappers, coins, cups, and you name it everywhere. Usually about once every couple of months, I take it to be cleaned by a car wash and end up paying an ungodly amount of money to get it clean because it is so dirty. This does not make Kyle happy. 2. I wear work out gear including a hat most weekdays but do not go to the gym. It is all an illusion so I do not have to get ready. 3. I make my coffee before anyone else gets a thing in the morning...no milk for you Max till momma gets her morning joe! 4. My red wine is sacred and 5pm is the golden time at my house. 5. I have a habit of buying the latest parenting book and then end up only reading like a page every few weeks because I would rather watch reality T.V. Mom FAIL. 6. Speaking of TV, Kyle and I literally run to our bedroom by 8pm so we can begin our educational programming such as the X factor, Modern Family, Damages, The Office, etc. Mindless entertainment has never been so needed. 7. I could care less about double dipping, sharing drinks, toothbrushes (ewww) but am kind of a germ phob with my hands. Does not make any sense. 8. There are many moments during the day, I wish Max was NOT potty trained. Whoever said a potty trained three year old was easier than one in diapers was crazy. I actually miss diapers...no eight million trips to the potty and awkward wiping of the backside. The FINALE: 9. My three year old still sleep with his paci. Yup...I am that mom. GASP. It bothers me a TON (We did try to take it last summer and after two weeks of endless crying I gave it back...mom FAIL). Max sleeps so well with it hence why I have not taken it yet. I really never thought I would be THAT mom but it has taught me to be careful about judging. Don't worry, he has been to the dentist and we are taking it by his next visit. Until next time...:)
