Listen up husbands, significant others, life partners and other halves of parenting units:
being a mom to a toddler is some dirty work, and not the kind of dirty you’re hoping for, either.
I get it, things used to be different. You try your classic moves hoping for a little lovin’ but all you get is an eye roll and blaring episode of Vanderpump Rules. Don’t worry, I’m here to help.
Wanna seal the deal with the mother of your offspring?
Try slipping one of these one liners past her on a wild Tuesday night….
I should mention that this post was inspired by my Husband who whispered this sweet nothing in my ear last night:
Babe, you should go take a shower.
Alone.
I’ll handle dinner time.
I don’t think I’ve ever been more in love with him than in that moment.
Behold, The 10 Sexiest Things You Can Say to a Toddler Mom
1. I would love a quick dinner of chopped up deli meat scraped from the baby’s high chair tray!
2. I dug that paci out of the toilet and sanitized it. While I was at it, I sanitized the toilet too.
3. I went through all of the baby’s books and tossed the ones that rhyme.
(or talk, or make animal noises or sing)

4. Would you like me to sleep in guest room tonight?
I thought you might enjoy sleeping solo, starfish style, in our king sized bed.
5. A top knot really looks great on you, babe!
6. We need milk, do you want to run to Target while I hang here?
7. Man those dishes have been in the sink for a long time….I’ll take care of them!
8. I’ve been thinking about and I agree with you, boyfriend jeans are sexy!
9. I ran out to do a quick errand today and grabbed you a spare can of dry shampoo.
10. May I refill your wine?
Alright mamas, chime in! What sweet nothing do you want to hear?
Chris does the dishes EVERY NIGHT. And the cat litter every week. YEESSSSS.
Believe it or not I actually don't sleep as well solo! I am usually cold and Jim is a total furnace- so i need him nearby to keep me warm :p
but otherwise, yes to all of these!
Haha, these are all SO great and true!
Oh and.. When he does the middle of the night feed! Wahh that's my favorite!
Haha I love this! "I got this babe. You go take a nap!" Would be music to my ears 😂
It really is the little things! Doing the dishes goes a long way for me. Last night, even though he was sick, said he'd watch Noah in the bath so I could have a break 🙂
HA! One time David handed me a Nordstrom gift card (that was his from a return) and told me to go shop and destress. What can I say the man knows me well!
My husband surprised me by shampooing the carpet, out of no where, yesterday. It was like the heavens opened.

Mine told me to go to bed early, he would handle bedtime. This Momma was passed out by 9pm. Glooooorious! Even better when they say they'll take the instantly energized toddler who thought party time started at 4am.
