10 Thoughts about becoming a Dad

1 Comment

     Finding out that your wife is pregnant is one of the most exciting and overwhelming things, especially if its with your first child.   There are so many emotions that take place all in the span of about… 30 seconds.  So here are a few thoughts that fly through the male brain at that exact moment.  Keep in mind that this is the male brain and it can often look much different than the female brain.  Sometimes we come across as knuckle draggers…

1. “Oh my gosh! I am going to be a dad!

My son Jaxon is a 2 year old whirlwind.   He is no fear, never slowing down, sneaky mess making 100% boy, all the time!   We have been working with him on how to brush his own teeth.  He absolutely loves brushing his teeth!  He actually does a pretty good job getting all his little chompers too!

So… the other day Jaxon and I were brushing our teeth together and he looked like such a big kid doing it all by himself.  I couldn’t believe that my baby boy was standing beside me brushing his own teeth.  He quickly lost interest and ran off.  I finished brushing my teeth and went into the living room.

 

Where I found this….

 

Jaxon DesitinDesitin
Yes, that is Desitin.  Yes, that is my child who tried to brush his teeth with Desitin.  Yes, I had to check with Poison Control and luckily he didn’t ingest enough to hurt him.  How this happened so quickly, I’m not even sure!   All I know is that he takes after his father. 😉

I hope this makes you smile and breathe a sigh of relief that you aren’t the only one with a weird kid doing weird things as they discover the world around them.  Oh, you don’t have a weird kid?  Guess its just me!😜

Hope you have a great and mess free day!  But if you don’t… take a picture and find some humor in it.

Let’s take on life together!

18 Struggles Every Sunday

If you are a mom to any baby, toddler, child, teenager, (or husband) you probably know how hard it is making it anywhere on time.  If you do NOT know the struggle of being on time as a mother, please, Please, PLEASE give me your secret!  Like, immediately!!!

Growing up, my mom was ALWAYS late.  Every. Single. Time. we went anywhere.  I never understood why we could never make it on time.  I now know.  I now know this struggle all too well.  I see my mother every time I look in the rearview mirror backing out of the driveway.  So… sorry mom for all the attitude your hormonal teenage daughter used to give you! 😘

So as I muddle through life trying to be on time, Sunday mornings tend to be one big epic fail every week.  Why can I not get the hang of this?  It comes EVERY SINGLE WEEK!  So… here are my top struggles EVERY SUNDAY.

 

18 Struggles Every Sunday:

 

1.  Your toddler refused to sleep the night before.

But in all seriousness, Sundays can be hard.  I find myself wondering if the struggle to make it to church is worth it and every single week I am glad I did.  Moms, you are awesome and you’re not the only one on the verge of losing your salvation while trying to make it to church.  Lets stick together and encourage one another!  You got this!

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.  2 Corinthians 12:9

Lets take on life together! 💕

Love you all.
