I completely missed Not Me Monday last week & I want you to know it did NOT have anything to do with the fact that I am totally in love with my TrueMan! So, I have 2 weeks worth of things I did NOT do . . .
First of all, I did not call my mom at 5 a.m. to ask her what I should do b/c I was having contractions every 5 minutes for over an hour on my 5th pregnancy. (& just so you know, she did not laugh out of frustration & tell me to call my doctor NOT my mom!)
I did not stay up late 2 nights before my induction cleaning our house from top to bottom. & I really did not go as far as scrubbing our doors. Not Me!
We all know I am such a, "fly by the seat of my pants kinda girl that hardly ever gets upset about anything," well enough to know that I did not have a nervous break down & cry hysterically when Big Daddy took all the Outlaws on a 4 wheeler ride at 8 p.m. the night before my induction & brought them ALL back cover in mud from head to toe - LITERALLY! (Can you believe he really did NOT see how selfish & inconsiderate that was. He did not call me a "fun-sucker" either.) I did not consider running away to a hotel & having a baby without him either. Not me! That thought never crossed my mind.
I did not try to accommodate a Little League baseball game while in the middle of labor.
I really did NOT go to the hospital nursery to get my baby & ask for the wrong kid! Not Me!
I did not schedule my newborn's check up with my 3 year old's annual check up - which included a shot & blood draw for allergies (the nurses did not miss the vein the first time either) 4 days post-partum. I did not have to help pin my child down & I did not cry like a baby when I had to stare into his tear filled eyes as he screamed for his daddy. And it wasn't me who cried when the doctor told me that I needed to supplement my newborn with a bottle because he lost too much weight too quick. Not Me! Bottle feeding? How do you do that?
I certainly did not marry a man who would ask me "if I was ready to plant 4 acres of watermelons" less than a week after giving birth to his 5th son! Not Me! I did however, throw the closest thing in reach at the man that did ask his wife that!
I did not allow my first born child to go back to TN with my momma for 10 days & I am not going to allow him to fly home all by himself on an airplane - which I did not cry when purchased. I did not cry hysterically when they left & he did not call me crying at 11 p.m. last night b/c he already missed me & it really did not make me feel better that he does miss his momma. Not Me!
My sweet newborn baby did not pee & poop on me at least 5 times this week! Not Me! Babies cannot shoot poop a foot long! Not my baby!
