Midweek Confessions

Happy hump day friends!

Before I jump in, I just want to say... Midweek Confessions has fast become one of the most theraupetic and good for the soul - in a "thank goodness I'm not the only one" kind of way - things I do each week.  I look forward to Wednesdays.  More than airing my own dirty laundry (quite literally really), I look forward to "meeting" each of you, finding your great blogs, and being reminded that no one really has it all together all the time (although, I'll admit, some people are lot closer than me).  THANKS for coming back each week and linking up your blogs... It really does make a girl smile!

Ok, shush.

- My Christmas tree is still up.  (And, I have no intention of taking it down until at least next weekend.)

- I wore leggings (as in - in leiu of pants) to work yesterday.  In my defense, they have seams down them (which somehow makes it better in my mind), and I wore a long sweater; but still...

- I walked in to the teacher's lounge just as two colleagues were discussing how "gross" it is that kids wear leggings as pants these days.  I'm not sure who felt more awkward.

- I haven't started Sam on solid foods yet for the sole reason that I am lazy.  I'm panicking about the planning and extra effort these extra meals are going to require on my part.  Is that awful or what?

- Occassionally, I get real motivated and strip my bed for clean sheets.  THEN, I get real unmotivated, and before I know it, it is 10PM and I'm ready to go to bed but there are no sheets on it.  So... I throw a comforter down and two blankets for us to cover-up with.  I like to pass it off as "fun" (like camping) but I don't think Jeff is falling for it anymore.

- Sometimes when Sam spits up on me, I don't change clothes right away.  I've gotten way too good at just "blending it in."

- Today is January 4th and I've yet to follow-through with ANY of my resolutions for the new year.

That's all for today... What are you confessing?







Grab and link, please... I'll be so happy!

  5. I was the same way with me daughter... I put off starting solids because I was just too lazy. I think every parent has just "blended" in the spit up too. :) Just found your blog today and I am linking up for the first time.

  8. Solid foods are the BIGGEST pain in the butt! Don't rush it! I end up having to give Avery a bath each time I feed her a jar of Earth's Best. It takes FOREVER. It's messy. Your breastmilk is still enough.... no worries.

    Rock your leggings! So comfy! Were those other teachers wearing appliqued vest when they said that? If so, ignore all advice from them!

  9. Love, love your confessions and especially the leggings. I'm almost 60 years old and I wear them with a long, long top and I love them and I am certain that you are are a "cutey potootie" in yours.

    I really need to join up one Wed. but I have another meme I participate in on Wed. and I love it too. What's a girl to do? :o)

    Blessings my dear!

  10. Don't worry, even once you start feeding him solids it's so little that they actually really need of them at this age so if you have to skip a meal & just give a bottle because there's no time or you are out & don't really feel like making a mess, don't sweat it.

  13. As long as your tush and your um, front side, are covered while wearing leggings, they are 100% ok. It's when we get confused about that, as Lindsey Lohan often does, is when we get into trouble.

  14. The sheets thing? TOTALLY ME.
