A Mom at Home

School started and life changed. Daddy Danny isn't home very much and Mommy and Baby are home all day long! It's weird being a mom that just stays home (I am doing online classes, so I don't qualify as a "stay at home mom" quite yet) Madison and I just started our routine this last week. Madison wakes me up at 7 pretty much every morning, We eat breakfast and read our scriptures together and pray. By this time Madi is ready to go back to sleep just long enough to let mom work out and shower. Then school work begins. Madison is transferred from the bumbo (which is a little seat for babies that helps them sit up) to mom, to the swing, to mom, to the baby pack on mom, to her tummy and eventually back to sleep while mom does homework. We always try to spend some time outside in the sun and Madison LOVES it. She is so happy and content being on a blanket in the shade. She is getting so big and wants to look at everything. We can't wait for dad to get home every night and we always greet him with a big kiss, and a baby kiss.

It is an adjustment being home all day when I've always been at school or work full time for the past many years - but it is the beginning of some sweet Mommy time. I know once I get the hang of my routine I will love nothing more than to be at home with my babies.
