Knocking Mommy off Her High Horse Since 2002

Filed under: Bad Hair Days, My Girls, Parenting — Blonde Mom at 12:18 pm on Tuesday, May 6, 2008

Miss C: I’m Daisy!

Miss A: I’m Minnie!

Who’s mommy?

Miss C: Goofy!

——————-

A commercial for a wrinkle cream, one of those miraculous before and after results types, comes on TV.

Miss C: “Mommy you need that!”

I do? Where do I have wrinkles?

Miss C: All over!

——————-

Finally, if you’re needing a Baptism by fire experience in humbling, just take your 5-year-old daughter with you to try on bathing suits. You’ll both end up either laughing or crying (either way, tears will be shed.)

It’s official. My boobs have fallen and they can’t get up.

I also don’t recommend choosing the dressing room next to the 90 pound tan teenage girl because you’ll be tempted to crawl under the dividing wall and strangle her when she talks about something not fitting right. I really think effective birth control for teenage girls would be to have them watch moms trying on bathing suits via hidden camera. That would pretty much stave off the desire to have sex or eat for a while.

Yes, I feel you on the nick-names. When the girls were handing out nice ones, I became ‘mayonaise’. WTH?

I agree with the birth control thing. Show a taut little teen girl my cottage cheesy belly and her legs will snap shut for years to come!

Love it! Sometimes I just look at those teeny-bopper girls with bodies like I used to have and just think, your day will come. Oh,yes, your day will come.

I hate swimsuit season!!! It’s a bad moment waiting to happen. This has got to be the reason why my favorite time of the year is winter. You just cover it all up!!

Thank you for the giggles :-)
I agree completely, that would definitely be fabulous birth control.

Yes, and as I once heard a little girl describe the difference between Mommy boobies and Girly boobies, she matter of factly stated, “Mommy boobies point down!”

A perfect form of birth control would be to watch my kids for 24 hours. They’d all be virgins until they were married!

Seriously - kids aren’t good for the ol’ ego. I remember one day Julia likening my belly to her Play-Doh collection.

Thanks, babe. Thanks.

Nothing like your own kid to make you feel old, fat and ugly. But one day they will have their own and our revenge will be complete.

“Have fallen and they can’t get up”. What an interesting image.

As for the changing rooms — I was once told by an acquaintance that she was out dress-hunting with her daughter, couldn’t quite get into one, and the daughter slipped into it like a seal into the water. From then on, she says, she shopped alone.

Ethan does this ALL the time. I have told him a couple of times that he was hurting my feelings, but it doesn’t seem to phase him. He just very matter-of-fact, “Your hair doesn’t look very good. It is too black.” (After I spent a half hour coloring it- thanks, dude)

I think you should definitely patent your unique birth control method!!! the only problem that we wouldn’t want to scare out kids so bad that they never want to have kids or eat! (there is enough of that going on already)

keep writing!
