As a stay at home mom to a busy toddler, my day is often a blur of two word sentences, diaper changes, nursing marathons, and the endless array of books, puzzles, and other playtime favorites. Once in awhile, I might even get a break if my toddler decides to nap. Here is an abbreviated version of my typical day: wake up, nurse toddler, change a diaper. Make coffee, breakfast; clean anything that didn’t get cleaned the night before. Feed toddler, husband and self while skimming my bookmarked sites. Clean up breakfast, toddler, and self before husband leaves for work. Play with toddler (current playtime favorites are kitchen, books, golf, and cat). Intercept toddler from hitting the cat. Nurse, give toddler a snack, sneaks a peek at email. Nurse toddler to sleep and do the slow creep off the bed, hoping for some downtime. During said downtime, start laundry, do normal household tasks (plan dinner, pay bills, vacuum, etc.), sneak another peek at favorite sites. After toddler wakes up, continue ad nausea, adding dinner, other fun activities, more cleaning/diapers/kissing booboos/saving cat/etc. It’s all worth it though! I’d rather live this hectic life than drop my baby off with someone and never know how they were spending their day.
