Since I'm on Spring Break and finally seemingly done recovering from my delivery (I was still on the mend when I first went back to work) I'm getting a taste of what it will be like when I can stay at home. I can think of a million reasons why I can't wait to start my new job as a stay at home mom but here are my top 5:
5. I'll be able to go grocery shopping and plan meals for the entire week AND won't be too tired to make the meals in the evening. :) Last night we had sweet polish sausage and wild rice. Tonight we'll be having a chicken casserole.
4. I'll FINALLY be able to keep up on household chores. Yesterday, during Logan's morning nap I was able to deep clean our kitchen, clean the downstairs bathroom, clean the living room AND get a load of diaper laundry done (by the way we LOVE cloth diapers!).
3. It'll give me a lot more time to craft! This week I made Logan a bow holder so that we can keep all of her bows and headbands in the same place. I'll be selling these on etsy once I'm done working too, so look out for that!
I hand painted the letter and the plaque.
The bottom velcros over so that we can hang all of her headbands in the same place, too!
2. I'm able to keep Logan on her preferred schedule. It is so nice to be able to have her get two full naps in, all of her normal feedings AND be able to get her to bed on time every night! When I'm working she has all of her naps at random times because of all of the different places she is during the day (sometimes at my parents, sometimes at home, etc.) It'll actually get a lot better in May when Carolyn is home and so Logan will be at home with the same person the entire month of May (I find that consistency is key with little Lo).
And the number one reason I can't wait to stay home is.....................I get to spend a lot more time with my two favorite people!!
