So here’s a little look into what my day looks like as Stay at home mom, as blogger etc. I’ve arranged some pictures to give you an idea (ok, this isn’t every day, but I happened to take a lot of pictures today so here you go 🙂

The am begins with coffee, of course. Followed by dropping my son off at school. Sometimes easily, sometimes getting ready in the morning is a chore (for all of us).
Back at home, while my 3 year old plays, I get some work online done. This morning I did some admin stuff on the blog, answered emails, tweeted, Pinterest etc. I was working hard, looking at files like this:
I mean, lots of hard work.
I played with the three year old then gathered up a picnic lunch.
We picked my son up at school and headed to the Agriculture Museum.
The barns are open and the admission is free! Mama pig and her fresh babies made me feel happy.
After, we had our picnic lunch in the van and started to drive home. Luckily, a drive-thru Starbucks *happens* to be on the way home.
AND they had Gingerbread Lattes still!! It was like, well, Christmas!
My daughter fell asleep on the way home and stayed asleep even when I brought her into the house. I ended up baking muffins and prepping supper (Traditional Macaroni and Cheese) then had to stare at these:
Got those away and now have been asked to play a game where I’m a dragon, or some thing of the sort.
Supper is ready to go in the oven and I’d say it was a pretty great day!
Anyone relate?
Love it! Great idea for a blog post. And you’re welcome for the pic 😉
You forgot about the smashing and thundering feet…or is that just in my house 😉
It sounds like fun. And yummy. : )
Were there any tantrums? I just have one little one at home, and she exhausts me with her constant drama 🙂 But I find getting out of the house to go somewhere is the best thing to do!
Sounds like the perfect day. My countdown to my maternity leave is officially on 🙂
Oh those pots in the sink…lol!
The downside to cooking (which I like) is the dirty dishes and pots (which I hate).
Need tips on how to get those kids into doing the dishes…:) without creating more work for me (you know, wet counter, floor, kid…)
I don’t get too many days like that anymore, but you brought me right back to my days of my two mat leaves. Sigh. I am more than a little envious of you right now. Enjoy every minute!
