Mom Fails.
2:55 PMAs a mom you are criticized A LOT and one of our biggest critics is ourselves. We strive to be the perfect mom, but we usually fall short.
It's totally cool! Let's laugh at ourselves instead of feeling guilty about our short comings. And if you can't laugh at yourself yet, laugh at me. I'm sure I have enough mom fails for the lot of us.
The Mom Fails of Ashley Moore-
1. I forgot diapers AND wipes and she happened to have a huge blow out.
Luckily we were on our way to the pediatricians so I stole some of theirs.
2. Sometimes I forget breakfast and or lunch time.
But come on... does it look like she is suffering?
3. I was totally one of those my baby will only eat organic foods and things I make moms.
Whoops.
Also, I had a friend once that told me she wasn't going to give her baby anything BUT breastmilk for the first year. I died laughing.
And in following...
4. I totally let her live off of goldfish and french fries.
Hey, sometimes thats all she will eat.
5. I also use her as an excuse to get said french fries.
6. IF my husband is home when she is awake sometimes I say I have to go to the bathroom when I really don't- just to have a minute or two by myself.
I'm not even sorry about it.
7. I forget to put her down for naps.
8. Sometimes I ask where my kid was after I look right at her.
- If you are in any way related to us you will hear this story. Aunt Julie will never let me live this one down haha!
9. I bought her a pair of shoes for the first time this last weekend and I had no idea what size she wore.
10. 5 second rule? More like 20.
11. I'm totally socially awkward "now". I will baby talk to you, myself, your pets. I don't know how to handle myself.
12. When was the last time I washed your hair? I ask myself this at least once a week.
13. Oh.. are you awake? I'm just going to ignore you until you start to cry.
14. We are only going to the store you don't really need to be dressed for that, right?
Leave the criticism for family members and strangers. Don't ever beat yourself up over short comings! No one is perfect so just laugh it off! And share some of your mom fails with me :)
