My Excuse For Everything

Being a mom gives you an excuse for everything:

Why didn't you come to my party?  Sorry, I have a baby.

Why didn't you answer the phone?  Sorry, I have a baby.

Do you want to go see a movie?  That's after baby's bedtime, sorry.

Why do you have a spaghetti stain on your nice white shirt?  Well....the baby.

How come you haven't blogged for a hot minute?  THE BABY!

See how that works?

I'll admit.  I fell off the blogging band wagon right about the time I had a baby.  Valid excuse?  I think so.  They are hard work man.  You think your little sweet turd head two month old is exhausting, just wait until they are 10 months, and then a year old.  I made a few half-hearted attempts between having a baby and raising a baby to be a blogger again, but they were not successful.  Case in point- the last time I blogged was in June. In June I had a 7 month old and now I have a freaking 1 year old. 

Happy 1st Birthday Neil!

You are so funny, smart, and sweet.  

Thank you for being my excuse.

Love you!
