Not Me Monday

I did not truly forget to put a diaper on Makenna the other day while changing her diaper. No, I did not take off her diaper and then pull up her shorts thinking that I had already put a new diaper on her. And no, she did not try to get a diaper out to show me that I forgot one. I absolutely did not tell her to stop and to leave the diapers alone. We did not proceed to go outside and play for awhile, then come in to watch Word World. I also did not start to doze on the couch during an episode of World World only to be awakened by little hands pointing down to where a wet spot should not be on little girls shorts. I also did not try to figure out how she wet out her diaper since I had only put it on about an HOUR before that. I also did not finally realize when I went to check her diaper that she did NOT have a diaper on anyways. Seriously, how could a mom let their daughter go all commando? Whoops!

I also did not tell my boys that I do not care if they clean their room or not anymore. I did not say that if they want to live in a pigsty, then they could. I also did not tell them that if their clothes were not put in the dirty clothes hamper then I would not wash them. I also did not allow them to follow those orders and to let them allow their room to get THIS bad.


I also did not end up revoking this rule less than a week later because I couldn't handle it, plus I had the Extravaganza to worry about.

I also do not encourage my daughter to climb out of her booster seat at the dining room table. She does not usually stand up sliding herself out of the belt. However, on this day, somehow, she didn't quite do it, and did NOT succeed in pulling the entire booster off the chair but yet still attached to her bottom. And, of course, I would not make Luke run and get the camera first while she is crying just so I could take pictures of it. I also did NOT have contractions yesterday during Sunday School which only got me thinking that I am completely ready to to have this new baby. I did not come home yesterday and simply because I had those contractions, I did NOT start washing all our 0-3 month clothes and even her car seat fabric just in the even that a baby comes early.....really early. My goals for this week are NOT putting her play pen together, doing her letters for her walls, and putting all her clothes in her closet now.

I did NOT call my OB doctor old and forgetful today in the doctor's office because he forgot to tell me to schedule my 36 week ultrasound. That would be completely rude. But, in my defense, he also DID NOT call me old first and tell me that I have to come back in twice a week for stress tests since I have gestational diabetes. That, of course, did not ADD to my stress thinking about bringing five children 8 and under to a doctor's office twice a week for a long period of time while I have these test. I mean, seriously, why would it? It sounds like so much fun for all six of us to be squeezed into on little tiny room together. We could call it bonding time, right?

Anyways, that's all I got for you unless you count the fact that I did not let my children play outside in the rain on the inflatable pool slide all evening on the Fourth of July, and I did NOT think about the fact that they were still wet and without their shirts later into the night while Eric did the fireworks. I mean, what kind of mom would that be to let their kid do things that would purposefully catch a cold.

Oh, and I did not forget to bring out all the condiments for our Fourth of July Extravaganza until I noticed people with naked Brats and Hot dogs on their plates. Good times.

Okay, now I'm done although I'm sure that even if I thought about it a little longer there is no possible way that I would remember any other things that I did NOT do.
