Check Please

5 May

When did I become a waitress? It seems like lately, all I hear is:

“Moooom, I want some milk”

“Moooom, can I have my favorite pasta?”

“Moooom, can I have hot fresh oatmeal for breakfast?

“Oops, moooom. I spilled.”

Lately, my life seems to be revolving around food and the kitchen, but not in a good way.

I’m always packing a snack/lunch, going grocery shopping, steaming/cooking baby food, washing dishes, wiping off tables and placemats, making bake sale/potluck contributions, and picking Cheerios up off the floor. 

Now, I know why they laundry never gets done.

    I thought the whole point of having kids (well, ok, not the WHOLE point) is so that they can do stuff for YOU! Last time I was over, after we got back from running errands (“why do we ALWAYS have to run these missions, MO-na?!?”)….
     
    Mona – opens car doors, opens gate, brings in dinner, brings in groceries, brings in fish food, brings in smoothies
    Mo – “has the game started??” and leaves Mona’s iPhone in backseat…..

    Hee hee.  The other day when I picked Mo up from school we got home and I carried in B (in his infant seat), the keys, my bag, Mo’s art projectS from school, his lunchbox, and a bag of groceries. I told Mo not to forget his juice box, and he YELLED at me: “WHY DO I HAVE TO CARRY EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME?!” I just looked at him and couldn’t help from laughing.
    Kids are a built in workout. I’m constantly running around, as you see all the time. I barely sit down until they are asleep.
