A book I am reading...

Just for any of you ladies that actually have time to read... have you read the new book out by Stefanie Wilder-Taylor named "Sippy Cups are Not for Chardonnay". I just started reading it today and it is quite humorious as a "new" Mom. Just wanted to share and see if anyone is reading or will be reading this!?!

Re: A book I am reading...

No but I'll definitely look into it. One of my favorite books with a funny twist on working moms is "I Don't Know How She Does It"

The very first paragraph, it's 1am & she's making mince pies - or rather smashing store bought mince pies so they look homemade. My Hero!
Excerpt

Here's a review:

For every woman trying to strike that impossible balance between work and home-and pretending that she has-and for every woman who has wanted to hurl the acquaintance who coos admiringly, "Honestly, I just don't know how you do it," out a window, here's a novel to make you cringe with recognition and laugh out loud. With fierce, unsentimental irony, Allison Pearson's novel brilliantly dramatizes the dilemma of working motherhood at the start of the twenty-first century.

Meet Kate Reddy, hedge-fund manager and mother of two. She can juggle nine different currencies in five different time zones and get herself and two children washed and dressed and out of the house in half an hour. In Kate's life, Everything Goes Perfectly as long as Everything Goes Perfectly. She lies to her own mother about how much time she spends with her kids; practices pelvic floor squeezes in the boardroom; applies tips from Toddler Taming to soothe her irascible boss; uses her cell phone in the office bathroom to procure a hamster for her daughter's birthday ("Any working mother who says she doesn't bribe her kids can add Liar to her résumé"); and cries into the laundry hamper when she misses her children's bedtime.
