Real Moms don’t always get a chance to shower, even when they really need to. (Maybe a “whore’s bath” is in order.)
Real Moms color their hair darker so that they don’t have to maintain it as often. There is no time (or money) for touch-ups every six weeks. Can you say ENGORGEMENT when you’ve been away from baby for more than 2-3 hours?
Real Moms wear stripper-esque maternity shirts when they haven’t done laundry.

Real Moms. Making smelling a bit off and looking skanky the new must-have look for Spring.
I was tagged by Kristen at The Mom Trap…Here’s how it works: Put up a post “Real Moms [insert what you do here]“, followed by an explanation, a picture, and a “Real Moms. Making ….”. Then tag five people.
I tag Queen of Shake-Shake, Sara at Suburban Oblivion, Swistle, In the Trenches of Mommyhood, and Mommies Are People, Too.

I wish I’d looked so cute while unshowered and pregnant.

You look so good! And i love the color of that shirt. It makes me so ready for spring/summer/anything that doesn’t involve shoveling mounds of never ending snow…

Too funny. I’ve been having a running discussion w/ SO because I just spent $200 (ouch that’s a lot of money) on highlighting my hair and I need a touch up already! SAHM = BROKEASS!! So what did I buy at the grocery store today?? Brown hair dye. I guess I’m a real mom, Oh my!

So hilarious. I’m a little over three months pregnant, and sometimes “showering” is the only thing on my to-do list all day. And sadly, even that sometimes doesn’t get crossed off.
