Day in the Life, January 2019

Howdy Ya'll! Welcome back to the blog! 
Today I am posting a day in the life, my most favorite blog of all time! It is so much fun to document what our day looks like, especially so I can look back and see how far we have come with our days! 


I picked a random day last week, so I picked Wednesday January 16, 
and started bright and early at 4:15 when hubby wakes up for work! 


I make his lunch, three sandwiches, some water, and some snack crackers before he heads out the door at 5. 

I have also started to through everything but Char's sandwich in her lunch box so all I have to do is grab her sandwich and ice pack and through her lunch in her backpack. Makes life easier :) 

I fill my cup with some more water, and a splash of apple juice 

and play a game of Solitaire 

before cuddling up with this little at 5:30 when he comes in for snuggles and another hour of sleep! 

My next alarm goes off at 6:25 when I have to get the kiddos up and dressed and out the door

Lunch is done

and the kiddos requested cereal this morning so into small baggies it goes, 

and my little side kick sitting helping me with blanket and milk in hand

I have my water and coffee to go, and we are out the door by 6:50 

and in car drop off at 7:15



While we wait for the bell to ring at 7:30, I go over my to do list and check emails

and by 8 we are home and he is set up with cartoons

the dog gets fed and let out

and I pull chicken out to thaw for dinner! 


I head upstairs to change into clothes for the day since I wear my sweats to drop char off 
and make my bed 

Then it is back downstairs to unload the dishwasher and set out the dishes that need to dry during the day


I make myself some toast for breakfast 

and fill my water cup up again 

34 weeks pregnant and a quick snap of my outfit 

before we are out the door at 9 to be at my doctors appointment at 9:30 

Back home and finally able to get laundry started 

and a snack for mom and Riley snacks on the chips too, just not the refried beans 

and I also make myself some fruit because I'm still hungry #pregnantlife 

at 12:30 Riley gets lunch, bologna and cheese which is what he requests everyday! 

and then we are out the door again at 1:30 to head to pick Char up


One Pre-K student picked up and in the car at 2:30 to head home 

After school snack and drinks 

and I make myself an actual lunch since refried beans and chips were only a snack 

and I fold a load of baby blankets while the kids have quiet time! 
From 3 until 5:30 we have quiet time. Char bear naps at school but Riley has given up naps all together so we have some time to be quiet after school. Some days that is playing with toys, so its not all quiet, or watching a movie but it is always designated time to just chill and relax! 

 At 6:00 dinner is ready to go into the oven, and I have already cooked up the chicken and sliced it and put everything together so it will only take 30 minutes to heat up

so at 6:30 we have dinner and the dog comes in for the night.

I have a cup of tea

and at 7:15 the kiddos are getting ready for a bath and talking to Mimi over FaceTime!

At 8:00 on the dot, the kids are in bed 

and I switch some laundry over to the dryer before heading down to clean up dinner and wipe down the counters with my favorite All-Purpose cleaner 

at 8:30 I head back upstairs with another glass of water 

and fold the clothes from the dryer! 

I set alarms for the next day 

do some work on my computer 

and finally lay down at right before 10 pm. 


So there you have it! 
This is what our day looks like but just with an added doctor's appointment in the mix! 
Some days there are naps since I'm in hibernation mode over here haha and some days I can't actually fall asleep until midnight, because pregnancy insomnia is definitely real with this baby, but this is our typical day in a life right now. 
With a new little one set to arrive in the next few weeks life will change again, so stay tuned for an updated day in the life probably around March :) once the sleep deprivation and routine sets in and gets normal! Life with these littles is fun, but exhausting and I can't wait to see just how much fun we have this year! 


Here are all my other day in the life posts if you haven't seen them!

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all! It's been a wonderful family weekend! Unfortunately our Memorial Day ended early, since Scott is now headed to work. He has to be in Miami, 7 am tomorrow! Yuck. Luckily Monday is almost over and we only have to make it until Friday until we see him again! Trying to stay positive and look at it as a good thing, not a bad. It is hard to see him leave, but I know he has to go to work. Charlotte was sad but luckily nap time was soon after he left so she transitioned into sleep fine. She will be upset when she gets up in a few but lots of cuddles, cartoons and playing until bed time will keep her preoccupied. We are headed to the beach this weekend, and then staying down there for the week while Scott works, but we will all be together and Mommy and Charlotte will be looking at houses while Daddy works so we will stay occupied with that and lots of pool time! Cannot wait until this week is over. May is almost over, then June is here! Cannot believe that! ...

Show and Tell Tuesday: School Photos

Happy Tuesday! Today I am joining Andrea for Show and Tell Tuesday's and today we are showing Worst School Pictures! I have a combination of good and bad school pictures just to mix it up a little bit!  Little baby Cat right before Pre-K!  Back in 2005, I was in middle school and going through a short hair and converse phase where I wore a lot of black and tried to fit in with a certain group of people! I was such a goof And Throwing it back to 2004! Aren't I just cute?!  Senior Year of High School  Senior Year pictures! I had ridiculously long hair that didn't like to cooperate for pictures! Then I chopped all of my hair off before going off to college Kept it short second year of college And finally grew it out and even colored it, I was in a rebellious stage it seemed! Those are my worst and best school pictures! I don't have too many pictures from my school days just because everything was thrown away when I lef...

Life Lately!

Happy Monday! Its a little life lately post to catch up on our past week! I started back to school for my Masters, Scott started his senior year of undergrad and life has gone crazy!  This little is working on sitting up, and finding all of his toys that he didn't know he had until he became mobile. He isn't crawling but he is really good at rolling himself around the place!  With sister in school all day these two are becoming best friends! I'll catch Skyler pulling R's hair, but I will also catch them laughing and playing and reading together! It's the sweetest little bond!  He enjoyed rolling himself underneath his crib a lot, all while I was sitting in the room with him! He loves to explore, even when it means momma has to rescue him from under the bed :P Afternoon cartons, goldfish and playing with toys We have been reading lots of books lately, we are going to the library this week to get some books but Ri has enjoyed reading wha...
