Mommy Tag 2.0 Questions
with Penny from The Real Housewife of Caroline County
This is an older pic of us…but I love it!!!
1. How many children do you have? And how old are they?
We have one (Emma) and she is 21 Months Old
2. What is your proudest moment as a mom ? (of your child/children)
My proudest moment has been Emma’s advancing in learning and graduating from Occupational Therapy! I talk about it here…
3. What is your most frustrating moment as a mom?
Not being able to understand what Emma needs. She is communicating some but not all the way, so sometimes she gets frustrated and so do I….
4. How do you discipline your child/children?
Using a stern voice telling her “No” or grabbing her hand to let her know that something is a “No-No”
5. Cursing, do you do it in front of your child?
Not at her, but possibly in a conversation with my husband
6. Do you think your relationship with your spouse has changed since you had children? Better or worse?
Honestly, I think it has gotten better. There are times when it has been tense due to stress from life…but we love being parents we cant wait to have more!
7. Since becoming a mom, do you notice you act more like your own mother?
Yes and No…I am like a mixture of my mom and sister! I take tips from both of them when it comes to parenting! And if not I do my own thing…
8. How are your relationships with your girlfriends?
Honestly, I dont have a lot of girlfriends, I keep in touch with a couple of friends that are close to me. I do wish I had more friends that had children around Emma’s age or a little older.
9. Your favorite place to take your child/children?
I love taking Emma to church! I love how involved with the service she is as far as enjoying the music and clapping her hands. She is now walking down the pews and stuff so I really enjoy the entire experience. I also love dressing her up for church!
10. Your least favorite place to take your child/children?
Well I dont take her at all because there is no where for her to sit, but when I go and get my eyebrows done its in a small salon. The reason I dont take her is because she was too little to sit in the chairs so I would wait until someone could go with me to hold her
11. Piercing baby’s ear: do or don’t?
I got Emma’s done at a year, I would have done it earlier if she didnt have to have surgery. I think for girls its okay to do it when they are young, but I don’t agree with it at all for boys!
12. Favorite skincare for you and child/children?
Lotion, Coconut Oil…I just try to keep us all very moisturized!
13. Must have mommy makeup item?
13. Must have mommy makeup item?
Mommy Makeup by greeneyedladyblog featuring a mary kay lip gloss
YES YES & YES!!!
I LOVE makeup so since I SAHM I don’t get to wear it as much as I normally do so when I get the chance I put on a full face!!!
14. Bath or shower? (for you and child/children)
BOTH! I usually put Emma tub once a week, and we do a shower a few times a week not daily though. If I dont do a shower or a bath we clean her up daily by washing her up at least!
