So, welcome to my life! As it says in my "about me" section, I have many roles to play. Let's talk about me being a wife and mother. My husband, Joe, and I have added a new little family member so I decided it was time for one combined blog. One place for everyone to go to follow us and keep up-to-date on our normal day-to-day life. Maintaining multiple blogs has gotten a bit too, well, lost. I have not had time to maintain them, both, so I am doing family and home in this one, combined blog.
For those of you visiting who do not know me, I am a crazy nut. My co-workers think I'm crazy because I would wake up early to clean the house before I left for work. I loved coming home to a clean house. We will see how that will work now that I have two kids....
I love to follow design and craft blogs. I try to tell myselft that I, too, can make this item or that item. Sometimes I am successful, but other times the projects get pushed aside. I love music and doing crafts.
Right now I'm off work on maternity leave. So I have had a LITTLE time to do some projects. I started a coupon binder, I made teacher appreciation gifts for three teachers (sugar handscrub, fabric bookmark and post-it note holders), vinyl mailbox decor, and a tutu.
What should I have been doing??? Well, first and foremost I was taking care of and bonding with my baby as well as being a mother to my toddler son, and a wife to my husband. So please don't mention those things. They are all gimme's. So now, back to the question of "What SHOULD I have been doing?":
- Sleeping more.
- Eatting more (healthy of course)
- Cleaning less.
Now as I mentioned, I have two beautiful children. One is a toddler and the other a newborn. I'm so busy right now looking after them both. This week I have kept my toddler at home with me rather than taking him to school. He and I have both enjoyed the time we've had together. It puts me even more into the mode of wanting to be a stay-at-home mother. Unfortunately, that isn't an option for our family now. So I am trying to get the most enjoyment out my days. I have cherished the time with them for sure. Here are some pictures of them (my son is on the left and my daughter is on the right in each of the picture sets):
Well, my toddler just woke up from his nap. I'm still in my pj's and needing a shower and I haven't had lunch yet. So I guess I better get off of here and try to get some more done. Thanks for stopping by, getting to know me, and being a part of my life....
