Not Me! Monday Redux

 
Let's try this again, shall we? I can't believe that it is Monday again...I need another week of Thanksgiving vacation! I am not ready to dive back into regular life.
 
This week, while cooking for Thanksgiving, I did not consider breaking into the wine before noon.
 
I did not have pumpkin pie and green bean casserole for dinner tonight. Not me!
 
I did not let Seth go shirtless briefly at church today because he soaked his clothes in spit up and I was not adequately prepared. Oh, Reflux, I will not miss you when you go!
 
While I was working the check in booth at church today, I did not spaz out like a dork when I met another little boy named "Jace" whose family was from Indiana. She did not think I was crazy for making a hug deal about how I had a Jace too and we were from Indiana too!
 
When John was putting the kids to bed the other night, I did not burst out laughing when I heard Ava get frustrated with him and tell him "Ava's not here right now. Leave a message after the beep!"
 
I do not find it hilarious that Jace is scared to death of chickens.
 
I do not wish I had a super power. If I could choose one, though, it would be either to read people's minds or be able to clean my whole house without expending any effort.
 
I have not been sitting on the couch all day letting my kids trash the house while watching the LNM channels movies (similar to lifetime) and eating pie, but if I had, I would be wondering...what the heck is Julie from Desperate Housewives doing being in a movie about being HIV positive? Very weird.
 
When I am at work (Seth comes with me) I do not compare every baby that comes in around his age with him. I do not stress over who had more hair or better head control. That would be silly! He has, however, single handedly sold several slings/wraps/carriers because of how adorable he looks when I carry him around in them.
 
Happy Not Me-ing, everyone! Head on over to MckMama's to join in the fun!

That's one thing we vocally said we missed this year: GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE! It had BETTER be there at Christmas. =0)

It's okay to be afraid of chickens Jace! Someday I'm sure he'll like Chicks. {{snicker}}

I loved the comment Ava made to her dad. I most definitely would not have been able to stay serious after that!

I think Seth is cute enough to sell anything he would be close too! Great list.

Ava cracked me up. What a funny little girl. My kids run when they see geese. Great list! Cute place you have here.
