FYI I started this post a few weeks ago, so some of these links may be not as recent as the ones I feature in most of my Friday Loves posts. ;)
Mompetition doesn't start at motherhood... it starts at pregnancy. TRUST.
there's always someone trying to one-up you or make you question your parenting decisions.
I, for one, am not a fan, and I vote for Danielle's way to battle those competitive moms:
kill them with kindness.

some marriage truths:
um, okay, call me crazy.
but I kinda sorta want to speed up time
so I can hear Ronin spout off funny shit like this.
“Wouldn’t it be funny if poop was made of airplanes?”
I die.

I ordered this baby book earlier in the week.
in the notes to seller, I mentioned to her that I was due any day now and that I slacked on ordering a baby book. she emailed me back and offered to send me the pages once they came in from the printer so that I could have them to record important birth details and put his foot/hand prints on the dedicated pages. she would then send me the actual book when it was ready.
I thought that was so above & beyond my expectations that I had to share.

That 2nd Marriage Truth is so my life! Thank God for a cpap machine!
ReplyDeleteMompetition - so.frigging.true. It's so frustrating & never seems to end.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, marriage truths totally my life too! So funny!
My daughter is learning to talk, so a lot of it is just mumbo jumbo but I can't wait for the funny! She did repeat Dildo once though...not my brightest moment as a mom. ha!I hope Ronin gets here soon for you!
Just catching up on your bloggy, my dear. And as I scrolled through the FB pics of your maternity shoot (which are amazeballs, btw)couldn't help but notice your profile pic on ones where you'd commented ::wink wink:: Can't wait to hear all about how things went and how baby Ronin is doing!
ReplyDeleteaw, thanks love!! i love surprises like this. :) yay for ronin being here!!!
