The Mommy Mule

'Tis I. The Mommy Mule. HEEEEEEE-HAAAAAA!

I've got it down, folks. It's official. I am no longer just a Mommy, but am now, a Mommy and a mule all at the same time. This is what I carried out of the van today. All of these items are an essential part to a Corley's day. After I got upstairs (2 flights of staris, mind you) today, I immediately ran to the scale to weigh everything.


Subway: 2.4 pounds
Laptop: 13.4 pounds
Swim Bag: 6.6 pounds
Diaper Bag: 1.4 pounds
Medula Bag: 7.0 pounds
Emmy + Car Seat: 16.2 pounds


To lug all of this up two flights of stairs takes skills. First, I put on the Medula backpack. Then, I strap the laptop and the diaper bag over each shoulder so that they criss-cross behind me. Next, I grab the swim bag, and throw it over my right arm where it meets my elbow. Finally, I grab Emmy + car seat out of the car, put my hand through the subway bag, and grab my drink. As I shut the mini's door, I chuckle to myself and say, "HEEEEE HAAAAA". Sometimes, but not today, I also have my purse, but I opted to keep it in the van this time. My purse probably weighs 13 or 14 pounds.

Yeah, I rock.

But, don't all Moms!!!
