YEAH RIGHT
Who Am I Kidding With My Vacation Packing? ([link removed])

As summer winds down and we return back to real life, a lot of us are unpacking luggage. And that means facing our wildly unrealistic ideas about what we were all gonna do on vacation.

Laura Onstot writes: “Every summer, my husband and kids and I go to the Midwest for a month-long trip to see family. This year, I packed five workout outfits. Five. I reasoned that we'd be staying at a place without laundry for a week, so I'd want to have enough. I was obviously feeling inspired, since I am lucky to knock out four workouts in a week when I’m not on vacation.” She also packed dress clothes and shoes. Did she use the vast majority of it? Nope.

“I wish this was a one-time packing mishap, but it happens every year. My suitcase reveals that despite being a mother for eight years, I still haven't grasped the reality of ‘vacation’ with kids.” It’s… pretty relatable. Check it out.

EXCLUSIVE
Ashley Greene Reveals Which Twilight Costar Is Her Go-To For Parenting Advice, & More On Motherhood ([link removed])

Leigh Blickley recently chatted with Ashley Greene — a.k.a. Alice Cullen of Twilight fame — whose first child is about to turn 1. And like a lot of moms, it was a bit of a rude awakening, at least at first: "We always looked at it as, 'It's not going to change our whole lives that much. We'll just bring her everywhere!' [Pause] And, it changes your entire life. You're no longer the person you were before.” But you find your new normal, and Greene is talking about what that looks like for her… and who she calls from her Twilight costars for parenting advice. (No, it’s not Robert Pattinson.)
