NOT Me! Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was

created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing

this week.

If you ever have the chance to walk into our home, you are bound to see a perfectly put together dwelling, where everything has a place. The air is scented with a sweet yet, intoxicating smell that forces your eyes wide open and a smile on your face. You will hear

children laughing and playing and some soft classical music playing in the background. At any given moment in the day, you will witness this if you enter our perfect home.

You will NOT find dirty clothes, dress-up clothes, matchbox cars and tracks sprinkled across our floor with a bit of carpet peeking through here and there. Our home absolutely does NOT smell of B's poop-filled diaper from the night before, because he has figured out that if he just holds the BM until bed time, he can fill his diaper as soon as we put him to bed so he does not have to use the toilet. Then proceeding to sleep ALL night with the poo in his diaper so that the smell literally infuses itself into the entire room putting us to our knees when we open the door in the morning. That is not a smell you will witness in our home!

The noises will always be pleasant, NO screaming, fighting, shouts of MINE! MINE! or MOMMY!MOMMY! NOT here in this home!

You will hear a MomBE singing songs to her children and reciting nursery rhymes, never shouting NO, or BECAUSE I SAID SO!!! NOT in this house.

And of course, after long days outdoors, covered in sunscreen, eating meals and snacks and spilling portions on their bodies, picking up frogs, digging in dirt, picking their noses, touching their 'private areas', letting drinks slide down their chins, rolling in the grass and on the dirty floors, walking barefoot outside and in the garage. MomBE would NEVER, NOT EVER, cover these cherubs in sweet smelling lotion, wipe hands with a baby wipe, brush teeth, and put them to bed considering them clean, NOT ME!
