12/30: A day in the life...

12/30: Describe a typical day in your current life. 

In case you don't know where this all is coming from by now. You can check it out from here or start from MY beginning here.

8:30-9:30 – Robby wakes me either by happily talking or frantically screaming. I have no need for an alarm clock, he IS my alarm.

9:30-10:00 – Breakfast. Lately for wee man it’s been French toast, some sort of fruit, and a yogurt cup. All washed down with a sippy. While he eats I make my breakfast. Which these days consists of a smoothie cause I’m too lazy to do anything other than wash down my breakfast.

10:00-1:00 – Playtime. Unless I have errands to run then this is run, run, run before it gets too hot and we die of heat exhaustion. Lately errands is KILLER since it’s getting too hot. But this is just playtime around the house and mommy MIGHT try to get some chores or crafts done if wee man isn’t seeking my every ounce of attention. On Wednesdays this is playgroup time.

1:00-2:00 – Lunch! This is lunch time and maybe a little more playtime. We usually both eat and get ready for some wind down time.

2:00-4:00 (or 5:00) – Naptime! Robby is an amazing napper and will nap 2-3 hours. We go in, change his diaper, get his blankey and sippy, and I rock him for a few minutes. Then it’s into his crib and sweet dreams. Most of the time this is down time for me or get caught up on house work. Or…it’s the time when I blog, like today. This is also usually the time I schedule my chiro appts cause daddy is up and can be here in case wee man wakes up.

4:00-4:30 – I start dinner. Yah it’s weird…But when your husband works nights you eat dinner early. We like to sit down and eat together as a family as much as we can, so that usually means eating dinner around 4:30 with him before he leaves.

5:00 – Say goodbye to daddy. :(

5:00-7:30 – Playtime. Just more hanging out with my little man. Sometimes we go outside or out onto the patio so he can get some fresh air. I usually put on music and try to get things done around the house that need doing. Since daddy’s gone we can be as loud as we want. ;-)

7:30-7:45 – Bathtime!

7:45-8:00 (8:15ish) – Get dressed for bed, read books, and lights out. I always try dragging this part out cause I love holding my little man and talking to him. We always say goodnight to his light, turn it off, and then we’ll stand there while I tell him how much I love him and how good of a boy he was that day. Most of the time he’s leaning towards his bed and is ready, but I just love snuggling with him!

8:00ish-whenever – Mommy time! Lately this time has been half reserved for working out. It seems to be the only time that works so I workout. Then its shower and mommy craft time usually. I love having my free time of an evening. I’m a late owl too and since I normally don’t have to be up early I stay up till 11-12.
