A Monday Meme

This is my very first "Not Me" Monday. For more info on this meme and what it's all about head on over to MckMama.

Now, as for me ... my week and then some (it's my first summary, I might as well give you some good ones!) of interesting
nots is as follows:

* I would never attempt to wash my stall shower with baby wipes instead of actually taking the time to use real cleaning supplies, get in there and give it a good scrubbing.
And I would certainly never do that several times. Over the course of several months.

* I did not sit my child down in front of the television today with a snack while I practically fell asleep on the couch, and that has never happened before, either.

* I've never spent some extra time in my bedroom with the hairdryer on after my shower so I could catch up on some reading.

* Oh, and I have never, ever had my back turned while my daughter put a bead up her nostril and she never came crying to me about it because I would NEVER be one of those parents who had that happen to them. I've never had to press down on her nose to push said bead downward and stick my nails as close to in her nose as possible to pull that sucker out.

Any "not me" experiences that you'd like to share? Feel free to go ahead and do so in the comments, a reminder that we're not alone is a wonderful way to end the day!


  1. Love them. Oh, and I totally can't relate to any of them. Ha ha!

  2. It's a good thing we never turn our backs on our kids...otherwise they might get into stuff like beads and diaper cream. Yeah, I picked up the camera phone before cleaning it off :) Thanks for visiting my blog. That's cool that your mom is a Toby too.

  3. YAY you did it!!!
    I love them. LOVE ♥

    And the blowdryer trick ~ I am definately gonna use that one. How clever of you.
    Mind you, I would "never" try something like that.

    Those were great. You're awesome.

  4. I could never list some of the things I would never do but if I ever did it would never be as bad'd better not say ;) Oh, I too would never prop my kid up in front of a television with a bag of fruit snacks while I napped or even took a shower that I'd needed for 3 days. Never.

  5. I love the blowdryer trick! I've never done anything like that. Never. Nope.

    I've never fallen asleep while watching my three children either. Nope.

    Thank goodness for Dora.

  6. This is great--I've never done this kind of meme. Off to check out your friend, too!

  7. Well,now I need to know if the baby wipes clean the shower! If they do, I'm switching to your method!
