Experienced Bad Mom, Dream Crusher

June 3, 2015 By Katy 16 Comments

Experienced Bad Mom, the Dream Crusher!

“Mom, I NEED to take gymnastics,” stated my daughter, 8. She was out in the backyard doing cartwheels. “You already took gymnastics,” I replied casually. “Mom, no, everyone I know is taking gymnastics. I want to do gymnastics so bad.” “You already took gymnastics,” I repeated. “Once, when you were in preschool. And then just [Read More]

When Potty Seats Attack

July 5, 2012 By Katy 9 Comments

You know those accident reports you get from school or child care? The ones that describe a minor mishap, such as “Susie scraped her knee while building a fort. Ice and TLC were applied.” Usually, I find those accident reports so mundane that I don’t give them another thought. However, I’ve never laughed at an [Read More]

Experienced Bad Mom and Attachment Parenting

May 18, 2012 By Katy 19 Comments

On Monday, I touched on the Time Magazine cover seen round the mommy world. It got me thinking about my own brief stints with attachment parenting. I live near a college town, which means attachment parenting is bigger here than in other parts of the country. Wearing your baby is common and I’ve seen a [Read More]

Experienced Bad Mom Goes Grocery Shopping

April 9, 2012 By Katy 8 Comments

Photo source I ran into a neighbor while grocery shopping last week. She’s the mother of two teenagers. As we chatted, I glanced into her basket.

Walk of Shame

March 19, 2012 By Katy 5 Comments

It’s not what you think. You see, the parental version of the Walk of Shame is when you’re called for a conference with your son’s 3rd grade teacher and none of the other parents are called. The parental Walk of Shame is when you stroll down the school hallway avoiding eye contact with anyone on [Read More]

March 9, 2012 By Katy 40 Comments

Yesterday I hosted a play date at our house for Sydney, 5, and her 4-year-old friend. “Hosting a play date today. BRING IT!” I tweeted confidently. After all, I’ve been hosting play dates since 2006 when my son turned 3. I could handle 2 little girls going to Kindergarten next Fall. Plus, the other girl’s [Read More]

The Halfway Mom

March 1, 2012 By Katy 134 Comments

I usually make fun of myself on this blog. I point out how inane things like my son talking about his butt, or my daughter loving the Disney princesses, reflect back on me as a bad mom. I mean, really, butt talk is NOT classy nor are the princesses the healthiest role models. My husband [Read More]
