Confessions

Putting spinach in a smoothie is gross (and yes, I've tried it). No matter how many healthy living bloggers claim otherwise, it's gross.

My main concern for my 50K this summer is the availability of Porta-potties and the probability of peeing in the woods with lots of people around, not the actual running.

I really enjoy telling people "The things no one tells you" about pregnancy and childbirth, mostly for their priceless facial expressions.

If I make chocolate chip cookies, I don't actually intend to bake any of it.

I am the least sympathetic person when others have a cold. It's true, ask my husband.

I was trying to give Faith a mohawk during her bath last night and her hair dried like that. I've been laughing at her all day.
It's hard to tell because she doesn't have much hair, but trust me, it's hilarious

I put way more care and consideration into dressing the baby than myself.
She's rocking the skinny jeans!
I think jeggings and Uggs are the best trends ever and I never want to give them up.

It's not unusual for me to outeat my husband.

I think I might love my dog more than some people love their children.

Right now Faith is dragging her tube of Butt Paste (yes, that's a real thing) around the playroom and occasionally chewing on it. I'm letting her because it's just not worth the fight and tears to take it away.
What are some of your confessions?

  1. I love this post.

    Some of my confessions.... ummmm. I hate hearing about wedding plans. Seriously. HATE IT. I don't care about your dress or your color scheme or what kind of food you will be serving. Maybe that's mean but I just could care less. People get way too carried away about the wedding and put so little thought into what it actually means to be married.

  2. Michelle - I completely agree with you! I hate to watch shows where the bride is so focused on everything being perfect that the real meaning of the day seems lost. I do still enjoy going to over the top wedding though, especially if they sprung for sushi as an appetizer :)

  3. Thank you thank you thank you.
    Especially for the first!
    Like you, I've read on countless blogs the benefits of spinach in a smoothie and that you "can't even taste" it, but I've never tried, assuming that was a bunch of BS. Thank you for your honesty!!

    Cookie dough is much better than baked cookies.
    leggings and uggs are my uniform most days of the week :)
    I too outeat my husband.

    Great post!

  4. I can't stand hearing people chew. I could live on frozen yogurt and bulk candy. I hate sleeping in anything but a tshirt, no matter what my husband says. I dislike spinach in smoothies!

  7. Agh! I am personally offended by the dislike of spinach in smoothies! ; ) Maybe you're not putting enough fruit! It really does mask the flavor! Promise! : )

  8. Just found your blog from meals&miles and I must say I love it! I've never tried spinach in a smoothie so thanks for the warning! My confession is I seriously hate baby showers - saying "ooooh that's so cute" when they open the 41st onesie and hearing people's birth horror stories is my nightmare. If I only eat the same amount as my husband, and not way more, I consider it a win.

    Your baby is adorable.

  9. Isn't it funny how our list of 'confessions' change when we become parents. We SOOOO turn into the: "yeah, well...suck it up! I have puke on me, I wiped poop in my hair earlier, and I had to pick boogers out of my kid's nose..YOUR stubbed toe is nothing" ;) Well, at least that is how far my sympathies usually go :) Love Butt Paste, let my boy chew and drool on the remote like a dog, I am the only 31 year old I know that gets excited to eat All Bran, AND I want to hockey punch people when they ask me to speak "Canadian"...love to get that off my chest!! Excellent Post!!
