Hello and welcome to Mommy Reality Challenge #39!
Hosted by Jen from JENerally Informed and Celeste from Leapfrog and Lipgloss!
There is some BIG Mommy Reality news happening, so hang tight and we will share it with you in a bit!
If this is your first time hearing about the Mommy Reality Challenge we are so glad you are joining this great community of moms who participate in our bi-weekly challenges that showcase all the fun, crazy, and sometimes overwhelming moments that are in every mom’s life!
Please don’t just read. This is an INTERACTIVE post! Come join in all the fun!
The Rules are Simple!
- We will announce the theme.
- You will write a post or take a pic, post it to the social media account of your choice with the hashtag #mommyreality and then link it up to this blog post!
- Then in two weeks, we will announce our favorites and award a meme to the winner. The winner can then co-host the next challenge with us!
Just a little background on how our challenges are selected- Jen and Celeste take turns writing the post and creating the winning meme from the last challenge.
This week it is Jen’s turn!
For our last challenge, Celeste asked us to share what we moms do when the kids go to bed. Celeste shared her Reddit and Girl scout cookie fetish and I shared how I haven’t slept in over 13 years (pity me), and April shared her obsession with Facebook! Ding- Ding aaannndd she’s our winner, because I bet that is how quite a few of us fritter away our “after kids go to bed” time as well.
Here’s your meme April! It actually comes from the adorable photo you included within your post of your kiddos on the baby monitor and has nothing at all to do with Facebook. It is just a perfect example of Mommy Reality!
P.S. April since you won this last challenge, make sure to check out the Mommy Reality news below, because if you would like to join us on our 40th challenge you are most welcome!
Our runner up submission comes from a picture from Janine of Encourage Play for the adults only pizza party she threw for herself last week after the kids went to bed! Well played Mom!
Special thanks to our Co-host for this challenge Leslie of Pampers, Play Dates & Parties, and if you liked this meme make sure to check out all of our other memes on our tumblr page!
Now It’s time for a NEW Mommy Reality Challenge and Co-host!
