Guiltless mommy things

All this talk about my overwhelming mommy guilt has led to me think about the things I do that some may find odd, but I don't feel the least bit guilty about. So, here are a few things:
~feeding the girls cereal for dinner (this is rare and only upon request)
~taking out the flashlight batteries for use in various baby/child equipment/toys (let's just hope there's not a major disaster headed our way)
~letting the girls stay in their jammies all day because they're comfy
~giving the girls access to youTube, but only to watch Hannah Montana videos
~allowing Ivie to spend the day in her panties, at home, just because she wants to
~keeping Elly up a little after bedtime so I can rock and snuggle her
~snuggling with Alden for hours while I watch a movie or my shows
~climbing back into bed after breakfast, with the wee ones, snuggling and watching TV

I need to keep this list handy so when I do feel overwhelmed, I can look at all the silly things that go on around here and remember "it's all good"!
