Mama's Boy and his naughty antics

Mama's Boy and his naughty antics

Yes, ma’am! Don’t we all love to be a little naughty? I know my little guy sure does! See what happens when mama is daydreaming while changing laundry . . . lots of naughtiness.

As moms, we see more than our fair share of naughty doing. Whether our little ones are coloring on the walls or helping themselves to an entire gallon of milk, we’re battle ready. 

Toddler or teenager, it doesn’t  matter , we still get visits from the naughty monster, except the not-so-little nugget has learned where you stash the good candy and how to defend curfew breaking like a Harvard lawyer!

With all the no-no’s and uh-uh’s going on around us, I think we forget to BE a little naughty our self. Let’s face it, moms are on call 24/7!! Down time is definitely deserved.

The last time I was naughty was just last week. I slipped out of the house to stock the fridge the night before my surgery. While moving through my list, somehow I ended up in the book aisle. It was like my cart had a mind of its own!! Kid free, I browsed to my heart’s content, which put me REALLY late getting back. To cover my tracks, I might have embellished how long the check-out lines were. Hubs wouldn’t have minded, but I sure didn’t want to deal with the ole eye roll or worse . . . “Ah-Ha, I knew it!”. My hubs knows I have a habit to feed, but when left at home with crabby, cracked out kids, a man can only handle so much, I guess. *hee-hee*

It’s great fun BEING naughty, until you GET caught!

Another "incident". Like the helping hand?

Word to the wise, never and I mean NEVER assume your fella doesn’t read your blogs. *sigh* Appearantly, mine does. Let’s just say the “Oh, the lines were sooo long, honey!” ain’t gonna work again. Ever. Doh, doh, doh!

Before you go thinking I’m married to Shrek, just let me say, the only thing I suffered was a lot of teasing. You’d think I should know by now that tricks are for kids and not mamas with too cyber-savvy hubbies! :)

Sometimes you just have to laugh when naughtiness happens. Believe me, when I saw that messy-mess of Rice Krispies, I got a good chuckle, especially when my little guy got down on all fours, mooed, then bent over to eat his “hay”. The nice thing was that my hubby just happened to come home early and literally walked in the door while I was standing there laughing like a loon. I was very happy he got to see some of the “fun” mommy jobs I get to do.

**FYI- if a man says vacuuming up Rice Kripsies is OK, don’t listen. Three weeks later, he had to take it all apart to find out why there was no suction and found a huge goopy clog of munched up cereal.** For the record, I wanted to scoop it all up by hand then vacuum up the crumbs. LOL Men!

Ha! Maybe that little scenario was another example of being naughty. The I-don’t-want-to-listen-to-my-wife kind of naughtiness!

No matter how you get or be naughty, I think the most important thing is to let yourself have those little moments. Perfect is so over-rated! Go get naughty, Mama Writers!!

ps- Hiya, Honey!! xxoo ;)
