I am awesome. No seriously - I am AWESOME.

Lately, I've been rocking this mom thing. All of a sudden, I seem to really have my shit together. I've been getting out of the house everyday, going for long walks at night, and attending at least 2 playdates per week. I am amazing. Okay, maybe I am just the average stay-at-home mommy, but I am still pretty impressed with myself.

Due to all of this activity, I am tired. So, I am going to be lazy today. This is just a boring picture post. But you're lucky, because my kids are super adorable.

I think you're awesome too. Being a stay at home mom is hard! After a weekend with the kids, I feel like I need a vacation. So I commend you for doing it 7 days a week.

You deserve a break.

All of your bloggy friends are right. You ARE awesome.

Can you share some? I've been little miss unsocial and I really should be going on a walk...

Just Jiff said...

You know...the walking might be giving you that extra energy and motivation to do the other things. :) But that aside, you ARE an awesome mom! You have two beautiful, healthy, happy kiddos!

Rachel said...

you are such a great momma. I am glad you are getting out and getting your babies out for walks and lay dates. how damn fun. I owe you an email.

You are awesome. This week (toward the end anyway) I have been remotely getting my shit together :) Love the pics, and you do have some pretty adorable babies. I am biased to my own, but yours are strong competition! ha! :) Have a great weekend Christy!

I'm a girl that likes a bit of structure, and I found that staying home provided none. That is a blessing, and a bit of a struggle because you have to create the structure. It sounds like you found a perfect balance. Way to go!!!

dani said...

Cindy said...

Being a mom is a challenge in itself. Then you throw in actually having your shit together, which is something I have yet to accomplish, you're doing pretty damn well! You are pretty awesome!

Wow! you are awesome. I have Sophia signed up for 'swim lessons'. That gets me out of the house twice a week and I usually have to go to some store to get some needed item at least a couple times a week, but I haven't been going for walks.

Oh and those are very cute pictures of your very cute kids ;-)

Kris said...

Those pictures are adorable! Beautiful kids...

I wish we had playgroups around here that I could actually make it to... I feel bad that we haven't yet. And we don't get out nearly enough either. Another one of the many things I need to work on lol.. I'm glad you're managing it! Although... you say you're exausted afterwards? I guess it's a good thing I'm not managing it because I can barely keep my eyes open lately to begin with lol. Speaking of...I'm off to sleep now.

Unknown said...

i agree with that they are adorable lol

TEACHBROECK said...

Cristina Mathers said...

Oh my gosh...when I'm at home with the kids during the summer, I consider myself accomplished if I get out of the house more than once a month. Please come teach me.

Mama Smurf said...

Impressive indeed!

anymommy said...
