Perhaps she has maybe, possibly inherited her mama’s Type-A tendencies? –OR– Perhaps she is simply a genius in the making. Yes, that’s it…a future genius.
A sign of things to come?

Top 10 Reasons I will NOT be named "Mom of the Year"
Some moms in the blogging world got together and decided to come up with a contest in which one “lucky” mama will walk away with the title of “NOT Mom of the Year”. Reading everyones’ entries so far has been very entertaining. I couldn’t help but think I could be in the running for a “NOT Mom of the Year” title. You can check out the official details HERE.
And, without further adieu, here are the Top Ten Reasons I will NOT be named mom of the year…
#10- Reason number ten happened even before I was “officially” a mom…perhaps this was a sign of things to come. I cried the day I found out I was having a girl (ewww, gross). More like bawled. Come on…who does that?
#9- I went back to work only 3 weeks after giving birth. And, there were no tears shed. If fact, I was all but RUNNING out the door! I also took my first 4-night trip away from her when she was only 3 months old…it was glorious!
#8- I work at a compound bow company (you know, one that makes weapons for shooting deer) and I dressed my kid up as a Whitetail DEER for her first Halloween and proceeded to parade her around my office. Photo Evidence HERE.
#7- I never sterilized her bottles. Ever.
#6- I let my kid get seriously nasty when she’s eating…and I don’t really care. As seen HERE and HERE.
#5- She eats hot dogs and macaroni & cheese at least twice a week. And, no, these aren’t the lean all-turkey dogs, they are the cheap-ace 3 kinds of “meat” in one kind. And the mac-n-cheese? Not organic (not anymore) it’s the “what’s cheap this week” kind. And you know what? I don’t really care.
#4- I let my kid play with real-deal fire hazard wire sparklers…and she tried to blow them out like candles! View the photo evidence HERE.
#3- I have a foul mouth. Ry recently repeated her first “bad word” and it was my fault. And she hasn’t stopped! View the evidence regarding foul language HERE.
#2- I think it’s funny when my 2 year old girl talks about poop and “big, stinky toots”. In fact, I actually encourage it. It’s freakin’ hilarious! View the video evidence HERE.
#1- And perhaps the most recent reason…I recently sent the hubs home with the kid for the night so that I could stay at a wedding reception longer and more fully enjoy the sheer bliss that comes from an open bar, a live band and your sisters!
Because I know you’re feeling deprived…
…of the cuteness that is my kid, I decided I’d go ahead and post a video. Nothing too crazy/exciting about this. For Julia’s rehearsal dinner we went to a local pizza parlour. It happened to have a carousel, so Ry got her first “horsie” ride.
Sounds quality is a little crappy, but oh well…
And here is one of the only my new favorite photos of Rylee and me!
Also? I was told by 2 different people (and eyed by the pastor) that mah bewbs looked really good in that dress that night! Sa-weet!
P.S. Don’t forget to take a few seconds to click two times…whether it’s because you think my kid is cute or my boobs look good in that dress…I’m not really picky either way…
My new favorite photo…
