It's been a little while since we've done one of these, so let's dive right in to a few mom confessions, shall we? :)

1. Lack of sleep is totally catching up with me, I find myself waking up already grumpy with the kids instead of in a good mood. Emi's sleep is better for the most part, but she still wakes two, sometimes three times a night.  I am so looking forward to her sleeping through the night. The past week I have been getting up at 5am with Seth before he leaves for work; even though I'm tired, a cup of coffee in a quiet house before everyone is bouncing off the walls does wonders!

2. We set up a little fort for Aria over the weekend with our dining table & blankets - however we moved the table into the corner of the living room. The chairs are still in the dining room (covered in Halloween decorations). All bets say they will still be where they are on Friday. 

3. I already bought some Christmas decorations. Fa la la la la!

4. I made some pumpkin pie bars but didn't have whip cream, so I made a quick batch of caramel instead, which was probably the worst thing I could have done, haha!  80% of the caramel made it into a jar stored in the fridge- the remaining 20% was moved spoonful by spoonful into my belly. Maybe too literal of a interpretation of the 80/20 diet rule. I ended up with a stomach ache, but it was SO GOOD. #worthit   I'll definitely share the recipe later this week. 

5. Aria has started repeating everything we say. I didn't realize until now, that I have a bad habit of saying shit every time I spill something. Daycare is going to love me. 

6. And lastly, I've lost track of how many onsies, sleepers & pants have ended up in the garbage because there is simply too much poop to wash out from Emerson's daily blow-out. Seriously, this girl has butt-crack-poop-shooting abilities. I've gave up. At this current moment, she has pooped once in the past three days. When the next one happens, I pray the bathtub is close. 

Here's to Monday, a new week, a fresh start. May your laundry pile be small and coffee cup empty because you got to finish your cup before it got cold. ;) 

Have a confession? Do tell!
