The life of parent...


Oh how life changes!
Before I had my daughter my life was always on-the-go.
I would literally stay up all night. Time had no meaning to me. I did what I wanted when I wanted.
Sure I’ll stay up all night watching movies
Sure it’s ok to stay in bed till noon

Of course I’ll spend every penny I have on MYSELF
I get to watch whatever I want on TV with no interruptions yay
Were going where I pick to eat

I’ve never been much of a partier honestly, but before I had my daughter if I wanted to party all night I would

I use to be able to read any book or magazine I wanted- pretty sure I didn’t even own a kids book

Oddly enough ;) when I had my daughter everything changed…
Just this evening I was in bed snuggling with my daughter watching Goofy by 7pm- I can hardly make it past 11pm now lol.
Sure I can try and stay in bed till noon. But I guarantee you I’ll have a little red headed girl attacking me no later than 9am- some days earlier! I guarantee you- this WILL HAPPEN- every single day.
I can’t even remember the last time I bought an article of clothing for myself. It’s been months since I’ve gotten my hair done. Now, every time I go to the store I can guarantee you we swing by the kids clothing. All of my money goes to this little princess. I go without, so she has more. But I’m ok with that. She’s worth it :)

95% of the time I’m stuck watching My Little Pony or another show like that. I know all the characters to every cartoon a little kid watches! I must admit, I’m always trying to get my daughter to watch Arthur hehehe…Arthur was awesome when I was younger.

Almost every single time I go out to eat with my daughter she always wins in where we go- why does every little kid love Mcdonald’s so much? I’ll never understand.

The wildest parties I go to these days are birthday parties for five year olds. Sure it’s still loud and wild like a young adult party-there’s even drinking (of course juice boxes)!

I spend a lot of my time reading kids books…literally just finished reading this one..

Why is it that reading a story to a kid makes the parent more tired than the kid?? Some things I’ll never understand.
I wouldn’t trade my new life for my old life any day of the week. My daughter is sweet and loving. She makes life fun- I don’t mind being stuck at McDonald’s weekly. I don’t mind watching cartoons constantly. I don’t mind staying in every Friday night. I wouldn’t trade a minute of the time I get to spend with my daughter. There’s no place I’d rather be… Well besides Disneyland- with her of course ;)
