Join the MothersRest fun on Facebook

Hey, Facebook-loving girlies, I know you are totally looking for one more group to join. Because you want to procrastinate from life a bit longer. (I mean us moms need something to zone out on when we can’t escape to Target because we’re the only ones home and the kids are asleep – CONGRATS! THE KIDS ARE ASLEEP!)

You will find parenting memes, articles about stuff moms love, and the occasional sleep tip.

So, ladies, I just gotta ask you to “Like” MothersRest on Facebook.

Come join in on the fun.


Goodies on Facebook

So what will you get from MothersRest on Facebook? Fun parenting memes, the occasional photo of my little guys, articles about stuff moms love, the occasional sleep tip, and the latest MothersRest blog post. Plus, the following random thoughts.


Small child: The only thing I can eat today is milk and candy.

You know it’s time to leave the playground when your kid pulls down his pants to poop.

I just hand-sanitized my face. Because my kid (gently) kicked me when I buckled him into his car seat. After we stopped at a rest stop so he could pee.

Me: What are you thankful for today?
2yo: God. And cake.

2yo slept til 8 (woohoo!)
Me: Wow! You slept a long time.
Him: I did. And I didn’t see any bears.

4yo: Mommy, I washed everyone’s toothbrush.
Me: Oh…

The boys ate for breakfast: 3 servings of applesauce, 2 bowls of oatmeal, 1 cheese stick. Each.

You know you’re a parent when “date night” means lunch at Chick-fil-A and catching up with your honey while the kids climb around on the playground.

Hubby: Stop licking the counter.
4yo: But I’m using my tongue as a napkin.

Apparently you should clean the vomit off the bedsheets before putting them in the washing machine.

And this morning, I fished baby Jesus out of the toilet.

My child just licked the jeans I’m wearing. Granted I did spill mac’n cheese on them during lunch and haven’t bothered to change yet.


Took the boys hiking today. Not sure what part of “hiking with a 2-year-old” sounded appealing.

If you put your toothbrush in the toilet, I put your toothbrush in the trash.

How do you get a 3yo to eat soup? Tell him it rhymes with “poop.”

You know your kid is an introvert when: “Daddy, I like water and milk, but not alligators…or people.”

No, child, you cannot chew on your shoe.

This morning the 4yo decided to lick the bathroom doorknob.

Dining with toddlers. On the menu tonight: grilled cheese sandwich with a side of mac’n cheese. Oh, and yogurt.

Dear small child, where did you put my toothbrush? Never mind, I don’t want to know. I’ll go buy a new one.

My oldest just peed on my youngest. For fun.

You know you’re a mom when your dinner consists of all the things your children refused to eat. #veggies

Anyone else secretly wish your house plants would die already so you’d have one less thing to care for?

“Mommy, you look so pretty.” Was quickly followed by, “Mommy, is there a baby in your belly?” They giveth and they taketh away #notprego

Raise your hand if you got grass for Mother’s Day.



Are you not entertained? Or at least you’ve learned you should have a Costco-sized box of toothbrushes on hand at all times when you have small children.
