NoPe NoT Me!

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by McMamma - at www.mycharmingkids.net. You can head over to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

This past week I did not let my 2 year old daughter eat Scooby Snacks (fruit snacks) for breakfast, because that would not be filling... and even if she wanted to eat three packs - I would never let her do that....

I did not ask my dear husband who I love so much to pick up his own Valentine present because I couldn't handle the babies by myself after the car ride alone... and I did not bribe my two year old with a soda from Wendy's if she would just let me look at some scrapbook material at Roberts - I did not order a small soda and get a 22oz ??? and I most certainly did not hand it back to the man at the drive up and say I wanted the small small...

This week I did not let my baby play vacuum instead of picking up the macaroni and cheese and various other nutritious foods off the floor because that would be disgusting... I also did not give him chocolate chips for breakfast.

This week I most certainly did not enjoy going back to work and leaving the kids home with their daddy, because I love and cherish every single second with my babies. This week I did not wash Gracie's panties at least 42 times (it was probably more like 10 times) while potty training. And I certainly didn't tell her to go in her pull up at Wal-mart because I couldn't figure out how to take her and take care of Max by myself...

On the subject of Valentines Day - (Thanks to mom and Cassie for driving an hour in a snow storm to watch the little ones!) I did not get so sick of my hair that I went and had it chopped off! After a romantic dinner of pizza and nachos we did not go into Michaels to buy a craft knife and I did not make a comment about not telling my husband we came here as I was holding hands with "some guy", just to give the checker something to gossip about... To finish the evening off we most certainly did not have 3 scoop sundays at Baskin Robins with hot fudge and Strawberry sauce, and finish every last drop before getting in the car, and my husband and I are not so lame as to be home by 830 on a night we had such wonderful sitters...


This week I did not count down for Survivor with much anticipation...I did not watch every minute on Thursday night, let alone rewatch it on Sunday evening when my baby wouldn't sleep. Jeff who?

I'm not starting off this week with a combined total of 6 hours sleep over the past 48 hours, so I'm sure this week will be quite interesting.... So - here's to a whole new week of Nope - Not Me's!
