Sarah Jessica Parker is one of my favorite actresses so this movie is a must see for me. With this movie set to come out in a couple weeks it got me thinking. How do all the mommies do it? With a four month old baby, a full time job, a husband, friends, and family it's a daily struggle for me to find a perfect balance. I would be lying if I said this transition into motherhood has been easy. Do I make enough time for just Austin? Do I spend enough time with Campbell? Am I doing my best at work? These questions are constantly on my mind. At the end of the day I can't make everybody happy and that's okay I accept that. I just have to do what works best for me and for my family. I hate blogs that sugarcoat everything and make it all seem so easy because I know it's not.
I have also noticed a lot of "competition" between moms lately and it really puzzles me. It's like Mean Girls remade except baby style. Of course you think your baby is the cutest, smartest, best at everything etc. etc. Guess what? I think the same thing about MY baby, because she is my baby. I don't care that your baby rolled over first or whatever the case may be. Campbell is an individual and she does things on her own time. I will always preach that to her. No one is going to make me feel bad because my baby isn't doing something yet. I love her to pieces and she is the BEST at everything in mine and Austin's eyes. I have a feeling this will only get worse over time. We as mothers should be building each other up and utilizing our support system. One of my favorite all time quotes by the great Eleanor Roosevelt "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
I'll get off my high horse now!
On an extremely happy note, my favorite seven jeans are fitting. That's right! I am back into my skinny jeans. I wore them Saturday and was so pumped. I think it had been exactly a year since they fit.
