I hate cleaning!

I hate cleaning. I’m not a total neat freak. I like everything being clean — as in vacuumed and wiped off. But when it comes to putting stuff away, I can’t do it. With running after my toddler and my husband, who basically is a toddler, I just can’t do it. And unfortunately, what goes with my role as stay-at-home mom is cleaning.

She’s downright lovely!

I think it is pretty safe to say that Kate Middleton is one of the most fashionable women of our time. I imagine she is to our era what Jackie Kennedy was to my mother’s. Except of course, she lives overseas. But with all of the media attention she gets from the U.S. press, she might as well live here, right?  I think she is downright lovely. In trying to decide which of her “looks” was most fashionable, I will confess, it wasn’t easy. She rarely has a hair out of place, let alone an outfit that is ill-fitting or unattractive. However, I do think she is most lovely when she sticks to her softest, most feminine attire — it seems to suit her personality best.

Princess Oprah would shine!

If my baby were royal I might name him Charles… and then I’d buy him a ton of Cavalier Spaniel puppies just to stay consistent. If I had a girl I might consider the name Oprah. Common folk could never get away with that because there is no comparison to the real Oprah — she’s too rich and she’s too famous. But she’s not royalty! I think a Princess Oprah would shine!

I can get dirty…

My go-to outfit when it’s just me and Ava is very easy. It’s a pair of sweats and t-shirt — something I can move around, I can get dirty, and I can roll the sweats up when I get hot. No need to be overdressed when you are dating a 2-year-old.

She’s smarter than me!

I feel like I break them all at times to try to avoid a temper tantrum. Ava has quickly learned that she’s smarter than me. When she’s screaming in Target because I won’t get her a certain toy — I go back and get the toy just to keep her quiet. If it’s 8 o’clock at night and she’s throwing a fit because she wants some candy, I give her the candy. I try to do my mom thing most of the time, but sometimes — you gotta let her win.
