    I’m so with you on the shaming of other people – especially women/moms. It’s just ridiculous. Like, focus on your own life and your own family and leave people alone!! I love these little prompts. I need to do them sometime.

      Women (and moms) have so much self-guilt and are so self conscious. I really think we’d be a stronger species if we lifted one another up and support each other. No need to shame other people- chances are they’re doing it to themselves in their own head. Sigh.

    MUDDY FEET -THE WORST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I almost put Peanut butter for the dogs too – or wait, did i? Either way, I feel that.
    So another trip with M to Texas? She’ll be a traveling loving baby.

      I just keep a towel on the floor by the back door. At least they’re walking over it once before wandering further into the house. Most of the time I have to tackle Bristol and towel allll the mud off her, though.

      Ugh. M was SUPPOSED to go to Texas with us for the wedding but… I can’t stomach exposing her to germs and viruses. It breaks our hearts but we’re leaving her with grandma and grandpa for the long weekend. I just can’t responsibly take her. Sigh.

  3. You always have time for laundry? Ok, what I already knew is confirmed: you are 100% a better person than me.

      No way, girl. There’s got to be some chores out there that you enjoy that I HATE. I just happen to enjoy laundry, lol. We cloth diaper M so it’s a good thing I don’t mind laundry. LOL

    Fresh corn in the summer is the absolute best!!! Brussels also make my list. I need to do this prompt. I think these are always so fun! Certainly don’t have time for any of those things either.

      I agree completely. Summer isn’t summer until you’ve had corn on the cob 🙂

      I’m glad I’m not the only one! People always look at me like I have 2 heads when I say that. Lol

    Puppy cuddles are the best! I don’t get mom shaming. Like, everyone is just trying to do their best! It’s really heightened since social media. Sounds like March is going to have some great stuff!

      I agree. I read something the other day that said our moms and grandmas had a handful of moms to compare themselves to… maybe 5 women from work and 4 neighbors down the street. Moms (and women in general) now have thousands and thousands of other moms to compare themselves to (via social media). No wonder we feel so guilty and self-conscious and shamed all the time. It’s nuts.
