2.) Before I was a mom… (inspired by Loukia from Loulou’s Views)
Before I was a mom I slept in past 7 am every morning, I picked up the house once a week, I walked around the house naked, I got pedicures, I was able to go to the beach after loading up some sun tan lotion, a towel, a book and my dog. Before I was a mom dinner was quiet with the sound of just the television without the shouts of "mom!" "mom, he's touching me!" and trips into my bathroom to pee were uninterrupted. Before I was a mom I borrowed my niece or nephew to cuddle on and spoil with gifts and I was guilty of admiring the cute onesies and baby clothes in the store. Before I was a mom, I took lots of photos of the dog and now my walls are covered in photos of the kids. Before I was a mom I would never let anyone eat in my car, now I'd be in trouble if I didn't let the kids eat a cookie or sip their drinks in the back seat. Before I was a mom, life was quiet. I LOVE the noise.

I think you need to accidentally print that honey do list and leave it lying around for a certain someone to see.

Visiting from Mama Kat's. :) Nice triple play! I can't believe I left Eclipse off my summer list! My daughter and I have the day planned already. It's one of my days off so we're going to see it in the daytime--away from the crazy crowds that are bound to descend on the theater that night. ;)
