Some people have it all together. I admit, I am not one of them. Pre-baby there were a ton of things I would put in my "required for living" category, like a daily shower, pedicures, clean underwear, a glass of wine with dinner, and so on. Now the ONLY thing in my "required for living" category is a cup of coffee every morning.
However, on some days you get lucky and productivity reigns. Today was that day for me. Kate was in a fantastic "I don't need to be held 24/7" type of mood, so while she played on her play mat, I raced around the house in frenzy doing all the things I put off this weekend. I folded about three loads of laundry that were piled up on our washer/dryer, did two more loads of laundry, fed the dogs, took out the trash, did the dishes, started dinner in the crock pot, wrote four emails and had TWO cups of coffee. By the time Kate was ready for a snack and a cuddle, I felt exhilarated, powerful and boastful, all "hahaha, I CAN be a super mom and do it all. Lookout world, here I come!!"
Then I noticed that I wasn't wearing any pants.

Oh Liz. Your posts are so perfect. :)
Can I get some of that super-mom confidence? My little dude just turned one and there are still days I struggle to get anything done!
I have days like that and I don't have a baby as an excuse. Good thing you did the laundry!
That is just awesome! I so have days like that!
LOL! I love this. It is my life as well.
Pants are so over rated...and looking back, none of the superheros seem to need them!
