Wordless Wednesday- One Word-Motivation. OK-One More- Funny

In honor of the 30/30 Challenge, (Only 6 Days away!) I thought I would take advantage of Wordless Wednesday, by sharing some motivational posters.  No. Seriously.  You know Those Motivational Posters... the ones that say "Motivation" underneath...  

I Googled Motivation, found them and decided to have a bit of fun, First Time Mom & Dad Style.  Happy Hump day (Humor) my friends, I hope you enjoy! AND Join me on the Super 30/30 Walking Challenge - YOU CAN DOOOOOO IT!!!


BOOOOOOO
BAWAHAHAHA!  Dr. Phil just called you out!

Epic MOMstrous Fail #44... The Hair Cut.

As you know, the epic fail posts are by far the best source on this site for learning what not to do as a parent. Well, today, I am definitely not going to disappoint.  This fail might be my most epic of all...  

Ollie has only had one haircut in his life. It was right after his first birthday. FTD gave it to him. I cried.  (You can read all about it here.)

Here we are now, six months later, with his hair growing over his ears, and boarding on girly, so I decided it was time for a hair cut.  In an effort to save me a few bucks, and Ollie a few tears, I decided to give him a Momtastic hair cut!  

No, I do not have any business doing such a thing, but I thought, Whatever! how hard can it be to trim the boy's hair? My friends, it was hard, very hard.  I screwed it up. Really. Bad.

The only way to tell this story is with photos...




10 Inspirational Quotes That Will Change Your Life. Right Now.


While doing a little research for an article, I came across a ridiculous amount of inspirational and motivational quotes.  I decided to have a little fun with them for a "Not So Wordless Wednesday" post.  While they are each beautiful on their own... I have laid them out to create a statement to live by! 
But first, here is a very important lesson we all should live by, and strive to teach our children...



 I hope at least one of these quotes will make a difference in your life today...

Uh Oh... Daddy's Subwoofer is full of Hot Wheels. Wait. Is that R2D2? #WW Style...

The other day I turn the corner to find Ollie parking his Hot Wheels in Daddy's SONY subwoofer.  Of course I make him stop, but I wasn't all that worried since I was sure FTD would be able to get the cars out.

So, as it turns out, I was wrong.  REALLY wrong.  Apparently getting a few Hot Wheels out of a subwoofer is a really difficult task.  One that includes, vigorous shaking, two flash lights, a screw driver, a cat toy, a magnet, "sticky tack,"(Think chewed bubble gum) and Plans A-D.  Oh and beer.  Lots of beer too.


Who knew it would take hours to get this job done?  Luckily, I took photos the whole way through... In honor of Wordless Wednesday I am going to tell the story with those photos... (Please forgive my iPhone poor quality photos.  I had no idea it was going to turn into a production. Otherwise I would have started with the good camera.)

Dear Metabolism... We Need to Talk! (Not So Wordless Wednesday)


Dear Metabolism,


We need to talk.

First of all...


Second... This is not going to work any more...


Third...

As you know I have been talking trash about you to anyone who would listen. I mean, how could it not be your fault that I am still a chub-chub mess? I am 35, I don’t eat very much, I am still nursing the man-child and go for walks almost daily!  I am doing my part, so clearly you are not doing yours… or so I thought...
