SAHM by day. Superstar by night.

Saturday Day:
Sent husband to work with a fully belly. Prepared breakfast for children. Mopped the kitchen floor. Towed three children to the neighborhood Easter Egg hunt. Made sure that each child equally had enough photos documenting the hunt. Drove half way across Cleveland to son's barber shop. Fed three children Wendys in the minivan. Wrapped birthday presents. Dropped off two children to two separate parties. Emptied the minivan of french fries. Cleaned the house for the babysitters. Made a stir fry. Fed family dinner. Bathed. Dressed. Re-dressed. Dressed for the night. Re-dressed in the right outfit for the night. Picked out husband's clothes, "Trust me I'm a Dentist" tee instead of the "I love Hot Moms" tee. Giggled. Called myself a big giddy dork. Managed children's bath. Hugged. Kissed. Left kids in care of grandparents.



Saturday Night:
Cranked up the volume in the SUV with no french fries on the floor. Rolled down the windows. Sang. Arrived at venue. Ate boneless chicken wings with fear of exploding out of size four skirt. Smiled at the thought of wearing a size four skirt. Took 200 picture of sweet girlfriend's 40th birthday bash. Got hit on by someone my baby brother's age, on the way to the bathroom. Told husband and all of his friends about getting hit on. Danced. Convinced four random grown men that I was a famous sports columnist for ESPN dot com in town for LeBron James. Watched as husband kept a poker face while I dished out very random basketball facts. Danced. Sang. Realized it was midnight. Danced faster. Laughed all the way home in preggo Indy's car. Feel asleep with feet cramped in the stiletto position.

I totally laughed when I saw your FB status this morning about your feet being cramped in stiletto position! Ha!

Sorry...


You rock.

Amy said...

You look amazing! Sounds like a lot of fun. An anful lot of work we have to do just to get ready though, eh? Cleaning, cooking, driving, etc. It's good you had any energy left!

A Crafty Mom said...

I'm LOL at the dentist t-shirt - I can't believe he owns that . . . and that he wore it out :-) Sounds like a GREAT night and you did look fab in the dress!!!

Hello rockstar! I won't even tell you how jealous I am about your size 4 dress. Though I KNOW you're jealous about my big buddha belly - which is maybe a size 14 right now - and STILL growing!

Marinka said...

You go girl!

Kate Coveny Hood said...

Supermom indeed! And it's true - you look fab in the pictures. I should send my younger friends who are afraid to have kids and lose their "life" here... You do make it look so effortless. Of course, then they look at me and have to try to figure out where they would end up falling on the mommy with a life spectrum... I'm not exactly the poster child for supermoms.

Love the idea of making up basketball knowledge. I wouldn't know where to start!

Briya said...

Sounds like good times :)

Blessings From Above said...

Sounds like the perfect day. The best of both worlds.

P.S. You looked beautiful!

Heather said...

Sounds like an awesome evening!

You go Super Star Mom!

Tara R. said...
