I, for one, have a hard time loving blogs that don't "keep it real" now and again. It's fraudulent for them to pretend they are perfect. But just as bad for you to be so hard on yourself. So lighten up! - we have all been there, or will be... Enjoy your life and your little ones. They will be stinky teenagers before you know it and you will then have scads of time to play in the Blogosphere! Now, go take a rest and have a cup of something warm and wonderful!Rustown Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970069327566577570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-42127863598118658782014-02-06T17:43:03.496-05:002014-02-06T17:43:03.496-05:00I don't even have a new born at home and my ho...I don't even have a new born at home and my house looks like that. A lot. Except without the baby toys. Now, it's just junk mail, Legos, shoes, throws and random stuff that needs to be put away. But, we live in our homes right? They're not magazines and we're real people. Enjoy the time with your new baby and your girls they're all that really matter anyway. :)Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09547046112210413940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-72060552826168498292014-02-05T16:25:46.347-05:002014-02-05T16:25:46.347-05:00Thank you for this Amanda!

While mine are grown and gone (for the most part)...I teach 2-3 year olds once a week and hear from so many of their moms how awful they feel about themselves because they "can't keep up". Pinterest has a lot to do with that!!! I have always said, "while the photo they choose to show is perfect, you never know what is just outside the frame of the shot!!!" Thanks for keeping it real.Simply LKJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06691860606573110974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-62677887717405939552014-02-05T13:04:14.407-05:002014-02-05T13:04:14.407-05:00This cracks me up, wish I could give you a hug.

My house is far worse, I still have five at home, so although our house is never perfectly clean, we are able to work together to keep it fairly tidy. At least until we all started getting sick over and over and over and... you get the picture. Starting with pinkeye before Christmas (you wouldn't think that would affect anything, it's not like anyone is flat on their back, but trying to keep everyone from getting it! Whew. Then we all got it, anyway.), then some sort of head cold/flu, followed by some stomach nastiness. I still have Christmas sitting out, even that which has been "put away", is really just stashed, lol! We'll get there, we have a couple days (in my dreams) of hard work, but it will happen. Your reason is such a lovely one - do enjoy your baby! Before you know it, your house will be tidy, but your baby grown.

I'm actually quite sick of seeing other bloggers complaining that their boring builder house has no character. I'd kill to be able to afford a "boring" builder house! I love interacting with bloggers, but I've noticed that it's given me a serious case of home envy. So you just keep those real pictures coming! Maybe I'll even start to appreciate my tiny overcrowded apartment. It's unlikely, but you never know. ;-)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02226692135849433167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-92171820426506625552014-02-05T11:40:22.358-05:002014-02-05T11:40:22.358-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02226692135849433167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-13298594733742864012014-02-05T10:44:50.369-05:002014-02-05T10:44:50.369-05:00I love this post!! :-)I love this post!! :-)LoriUhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00265236304799855177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-90963729943931810602014-02-05T10:38:02.929-05:002014-02-05T10:38:02.929-05:00I actually enjoyed this.
