Remember when Silver Medalist Noelle Pikus Pace came over and I beat her at a brand new Olympic event? That event was “Let’s See Who Can Cut a Slice of Pizza into as Many Pieces as Possible within One Minutes Time”.
It’s a very competitive event and if anybody would like to challenge me, I am up for it.
It’s probably my own fault I have so much practice in this particular challenge because my five-year-old still insists on eating a slice of pizza with a fork and knife. We might have to revoke her New Yorker card. It’s a pretty serious offense.
This very special episode of the Mommy Show is also the one where Blossom almost lost her virginity. Wait. That’s not right. It’s the one where Harlow wore a go-pro. Any excuse to show that picture again.
Noelle and I also competed in a hidden pacifier challenge and a LEGO sorting challenge. If I had Noelle over again, I would probably add a few more Mommy challenges to the mix (including the Clean Laundry Relay, the Winter Gear-a-thon and Extreme Diaper Changing).
Hey, Noelle— do you want to come over again?
What event would do you think you could win the Mommy Olympics?

I think we need to add sock sorting from dryer. Trying to match the correct little sock to another little sock that may be three feet down in the pile. Then trying to determine which socks belong to which kid while putting them away.
My husband and I have been sick all week, so things like folding laundry have taken a back seat. My kids have been wearing mismatched socks that I manage to dig out of the basket. They haven’t seemed to mind or notice so I am considering adopting it as a new fashion trend.
Last night my 3-year old son ate his pizza all by himself, holding it and taking bites, for the first time ever. It was a very joyous experience for me. Cutting pizza is about the most annoying thing ever!!
While it won’t help while you’re out and about, I just use a pair of kitchen shears to cut the pizza into bite size pieces. My son is a fancy pants who does not like sauce on his face. Unlike his mother…bwahaha
An endurance event like how many times you can pick up a sippy cup, or add a twist that the floor has nasty, slimey, grody baby barf and it’s your last sippy or paci and you have to catch it before it hits. The how fast can you get a kid dressed and have sunblock applied before they have to go to the potty. How to feed two kids about the same age at the same time something really messy while wearing white…
I love this! The pizza challenge was the best!
How about, getting a toddler to eat their veggies event! I’m still working on that with my 19 mo
