Not Me Monday

It's been awhile since I did a Not Me Monday post.  I would like to say that I have not done anything worth Not Me'ing about, but that would be untruthful.  I just have a thing about doing things when I am supposed to.  Maybe I'm rebellious or I don't know what you would call it, but I just have not being into writing about it lately.  Today, however I feel like it.   Does anyone else ever feel that way?  Or am I just a nut? 

This is actually going to be a Not My Baby Monday because you know I always never do silly things.  

This is my pretty girl.  She loves the head band I made her.

She would never rip it off...

And replace it with...

One of Matt's work shirts!

Nope!  Not my pretty girl.  She would never be insist on wearing a ratty old work shirt on her head all day!  That would be so ungirly!

She would never try to attack her ever instigating big brother when he would take it off her head!

No my girl is all snuggles and cuteness. She would never scream, hit, or growl at her brother, not even if he was to take her newest very short lived best friend away.

Nope!  Not my baby!

Hop on over to MckMama's blog and see what everyone else did not do.

Not Me Monday... The Wesley Edition

This is a special Wesley edition of Mckmama's Not Me Monday!

   My 3 year old is always calm, cool and collected so this past week, he did not experience a identity crisis, run around like a chicken with it's head cut off till he ran smack into chair,  put a Lima bean up his nose, or get re-acquainted with him imaginary friend Fred. 

Wes did not decide to take his rest time in a broken down laundry basket.

Nope he is way to serious for that!

He did not claim to be a clown and swing on the frozen swing set with Fred.

He is not growling at me, nah, he always uses his big boy voice.

This sweet little lion did not throw a monster fit when it was time to go home and give back the lion suit to his friend!  No he is always more than willing to do as his Mommy asks.

He did not pretend to be a turtle in it's shell, while in his towel after a bath with his sister.

He did not smack his maracas together so hard that right after this photo was taken, one exploded!  That would make a big mess for me to pick up and he would NEVER do that.  Not my Wesley.

And lastly, when he asked if he could pick out his sister's clothes, he did not come up with this super cute and funky outfit.

Not Me Monday

  This is   a blogger carnival started by Mckmama, head over there to see what everyone else has been up to this week.

When God provides such beautiful scenery how could I not want to go out and take some photos of it? I would never however, dream of taking my two small children on  a fourwheeler in 32 degree weather.  Nor would I continue attempting to ride out into the back field after getting stuck our yard.  I am a such more responsible and careful Mom than that! 

This then would most definitely NOT be a photo of my small son on a VERY stuck four wheeler way out in the farthest field!

NOPE!

I would NEVER get stuck half a mile from home in 6-12 inches (the snow had drifted) of snow.  If I had however I would not have stopped and called my mom who lives 10minutes 6 hours away for help!  Really how could she help me?

 I would have tried to make this not so fun time a fun time and had a snowball fight with my singing bunny carrying Wesley. 

That snowball fight would not turn into a full out war with snowballs the size of softballs flying mostly from me a few of which I might have thrown. :)

And since you all know me and know how I love clean children I would not have brought my dirty faced son on this four wheeling mishap.  My kids are always freshly bathed and smell heavenly.

Since I did not bring my children on a wintery ride I did not take a photo of Wes waving good bye and crying, yes he was hysterically crying in this photo (that is IF this really happened) because he did not want to leave Mommy's four wheeler in the snow.

It was not a long walk back.

Beautiful but long.

 So long that my usually energy filled 3 year old would not have to take numerous rests... 

 Or hug his bunny and ask for his bed and pillow. 

 Nope we did take nearly an hour to walk through at time knee deep snow because I wanted to take snow pretty snow photos.  Nope not me!

Not Me Monday

   This is a blogger carnival started by Mckmama.  So if you are feeling guilty about wiping your kids nose with a randomly placed dirty shirt, getting angry because you don't have any cream cheese, eating way too many chocolates, or just being lazy and not doing dishes yet again, you are in the right spot!
 Christmas was over two weeks ago right?  It was wonderful and I took great pictures of both kids together under the Christmas tree.  I mean I am a great mom and great mom's make sure they get great pictures of their kids together!  That being said the pictures that follow were definitely NOT taken yesterday.  Nope I am Super mom and always and I mean always do things when I should and do them well.  I would never dress my children in Christmas garb 2 weeks late in an attempt (notice I said attempt) to get the classic Christmas morning, under the tree photo; I mean come on....I took my tree down right after New Years! 

 Seriously I put Felicity's Santa dress away as soon as it was washed the week the day after Christmas!  It would not have been sitting on her dresser weeks after Christmas just waiting for me to put it back on her and to try to get some Christmas photos!

This photo was absolutely without a doubt NOT taken yesterday!

I would not have procrastinated soooo much and soooo long to take Christmas photos that our tree was dropping needles at a rate of 10 per second!  Who does that? Not me!

 I would not try to hard to get such late photos my wriggling, squirming, yelling, bouncing, and all together uncooperative very photogenic and always cooperative children, that Wes would lay down and pretend to be asleep so I would stop!  I mean I have raw talent and can take a photo of the most unhappy child in the most uncomfortable situations and it will looks splendid.  Or not!

Yep, definately did not do that!  Nope. I did not them resort to candy cane bridery.  Nope I don't let my son and certainly not our 8 month old daughter have sugar of any kind.

Nope.

None.

No sugar at all.

What kind of mom does that?  Must be the same kind that gives 3 year olds chocolate kisses for peeing in the potty, or the kind that forgets to brush said 3 year olds hair before Christmas photoshoots.

I for one and the kind of mom that would know that giving sugar to already uncooperative children would only make them more well uncooperative, not to mention a sticky, icky, gooey, fuzzies stinking to their face and hands mess!  I am so glad I am not that kind of mom!

Pheww!  Boy and I glad that I took all my Christmas pictures on Christmas day and did not give either of my sugar free babies candy canes.  What a mess that would have made!  Not to mention that since my 8 month old has never really had sugar I would not know what effect it would have on her.   She might turn from a usually calm snugly baby into an evil eye giving, crawling like a maniac, drooling like it's going out of style, shrieking on the top of her lungs, non-napping crazy baby and that would not be good or something a super mom would do!

(you do see that crazy mischeivious look in her eyes don't you?) 

Scarey!

Not Me Monday

    This is a blogger carnival started by Mckmama.  Hop on over there and see what everyone else is up to this week.
This past week has been scattered and unorganized, but I did not use that as a reason to be lazy with this post.
I did not finally get a bow to stay in Felicity's hair.  She does not have enough hair to even consider putting a bow in it yet. I would not then make her "pose" for some pictures when she was dog tired and in need of a nap just so I could capture the first time she wore a bow.  

Wes was not seen wearing only "Elmo" socks and underwear  in our house.

I did not try to make snowpops with straws!

I did not buy Wes an adult size snow hat because I was plain tired of buying him new hat every year because his head keeps growing!

Lastly I did not make laundry soap with the wrong baking soda.  I always read directions very carefully!  However if I did and I did not do this I would not be oh so thrilled when my clothes, even the really dirty ones came out clean!

Not Me Monday

It's a bird!  It's a bat!  It's a rat!  It's Zoe the Sugar Glider!

And in this edition of Not Me Monday, she did not pee and poop on me!

  This is a blogger carnival started by Mckmama.  Get over to her site and check it out :) 

Oh little Zoe, my sister Brittany's baby Sugar Glider.  She weighs only 2 ounces and  if and only if she had peed on me, I would be able to tell you that at least an ounce of that is pee.  Yep that would be really gross so I am very ahem relieved (pune intended) to tell you that this flying rodent, (Please don't tell Britt I called her baby a rodent! ) did not pee on me and then moments later poo as well.  I only asked to hold her for a minute and she would never go potty on me and all 13 relatives would not just stand there and laugh if she had decided to!

When would something like this not happen?  Certainly not when we were playing this game.  I would never play a game with mini men's undergarments while letting a mini marsupial crawl on me!

I did however play and loose miserably at this game!

Is there a doctor is the house?  Kirstie would never dress up as a doctor while playing games and watching an Australian flying Squirrel pee on me!  She loves me and would never do such a thing.   She would not take away her 3 year old nephew's brand new Christmas gift and wear them while eating whipped cream and a cherry. 

Not even at Christmas would she and our younger sister eat a plate of whipped cream and a lone cherry!  We always eat pie with our cream. :)

Christmas was fun but I am so very thankful that my sister did not bring her badger looking squirrel from Georgia just so she could pee on me!  More on Christmas to come....later....
