I'm a 39-year-old working mom to two girls trying to stay sane and away from the Barbie PopTarts. I'm also a writer and editor with more than 17 years of experience. BlondeMomBlog is a top Google search result for "mom blog" and I'm kind of proud of that ya'll.

Murphy’s Law of Mommy Blogging

You write something sugary sweet and heartfelt about your children, and then they drive you insane.

I’ll spare you the details, but an Alvin & the Chipmunks DVD from the movie rental store almost became roadkill because two little girls were fighting over who was going to hold it.

Can’t we all just get along? For five seconds?

No matter, as they are staying with my mother overnight while the hubby and I go out to celebrate our wedding anniversary.

Woo hoo!

    This just happened to me. I had this really sweet, heartfelt post about J. Then we went to Walmart. I already detest having to go to Walmart, but to go with a a cranky, hungry baby AND to get the cart with the rouge wheel . . . NIGHTMARE.

    HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

    Happy Anniversary! Kids always make their parents out to be liars. You tell something that they would never do and they make you out to be a liar by doing exactly what it is you say they don’t do! It never fails…

    My boys are obessed with that movie right now. I feel like I am about to loose my mind. All day long they are quoting the movie… It is so insane!

    Happy Anniversary! My husband’s and my 11th anniversary of our first date is coming up on the 26th…our 10th wedding anniversary is in July. We’ve been married since I was 18 and he was 20. Now we’re old fogies of 28 and almost 30.

    Nope – getting along for more than 3.345 seconds at a time would destroy the universe. :)

    We have similar arguments in our house all the time. If they’re not arguing over who gets to do something first, then they’re arguing over who has to do something first.

    Sigh.

    Wedding anniversary? That makes me think of two good lines:
    1. “These chairs are ruining the suits.”
    2. “I was there when Alan and Jamie consummated their relationship.”
    Ha ha ha. Good times. Good times.
