From the time the baby goes to bed (at approximately 830) until when the hubby gets home from work (at approximately 1130), I have my headphones on and I am rocking out like it is my job. My favorite jams are things that either aren't appropriate for the baby or that the husband just refuses to listen to. My top favorites are anything by Pitbull, Daddy Yankee, and Flo Rida. "Oh hot dayum, this is my jam...." You can take the girl out of the ghetto, you can't take the ghetto out of the girl.

During the day, I listen to "appropriate" music like Adele and my boyfriend Josh Groban. Don't get me wrong, the baby and I rock and we dance our little tushies off, it is just usually to Veggie Tales (Ceeeeebuuuuuuu!) and The Ants Go Marching. But at night, all bets are off. I am rocking out with my --- out. I am dropping it like it is hott. And it is. Hands in the air, doing my trademark "white girl dance". Ain't got no shame... so long as no one is home to see.

Thank you for your Monday Mom Confession post! It made me smile and laugh. Enjoy dancing alone while the baby sleeps-soon they are teenagers who look on in horror as you drop in low. LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm just gonna keep on dancing. :)
DeleteI used to dance while mine slept, too. Now they're grown, & my grandma confession is that I spoil the grandkids behind their mothers' backs.

Isn't that what Grandmas are for?
DeleteOh man, I used to love Veggietales! I'm still very attached to Silly Songs With Larry. I wish that there was a secular version so I could share it with my future kid!
ReplyDeleteWe love Silly Songs with Larry! We listen to that CD alll the time. The religious part doesn't really bother me.

I added it manually and fixed the linky. Sorry it wasn't working for you!
DeleteHA! This totally cracked me up. As a stay-at-home Dad (playing along) I had to create different playlists so I wouldn't mistakenly have a song with adult lyrics come on during my kid's awake time - but there's a lot of exuberant house-cleaning and dancing and singing along that's happened to the soundtrack to Avenue Q. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being part of the 2012 Comment Challenge!
Keep on commenting,

Ha! "What Can You Do with a BA in English?" is my theme song! And the answer is apparently, write a book/mom blog while staying home with your son.
DeleteThanks for stopping by, glad I'm not the only one!
When my kids were little, we listened to our own music - generally - and told the girls that it was their favorite songs. Sometimes we had to make some of our own 'corrections' to the songs, but it was worth it to have our three yr old ask for a bedtime song and when I asked which one she said "Crazy Train."
