Adventures in mommyland

     As most of you know I am a stay at home mom now.... I am currently on day 4 of stay at home mom life. ... Since I was 13ish I have had a job, started out doing a paper route with my mom.  When I had a corporate job I use to hate cleaning my house, Hate it! Because if I cleaned it was taking up my free/ relax/ time with the kids.  Now I love cleaning! It's not this annoying thing that takes my free time away. I also have more time with my family! I get to see my husband everyday and not just once in awhile. I get to play with my kids and not stress about the following day.. Did I do the laundry/ does my oldest have stuff for her lunch/ the morning chaotic run around trying to get everyone (including myself) put together in time for the day.  

     I get to have quality time with each kiddo!! Because they see me more now there is not the craziness of them all attacking me at once for my attention. Today I got to play cars with Tyler, He loved it! even though he mostly threw his cars, I got to watch frozen with Brooklynn while Tyler took a nap and Brynn Lara and I made cookies!!! Yesterday we mad a fort in the backyard!!  I am also able to cook dinner for my family instead of me and my husband "fending for ourselves " aka eat whatever you can make quickly for yourself or eat whatever the kids are having.  

     I also have a lot more patience, usually everything is this horrible game of hurry up and eat or hurry up and get dressed or hurry up and get to bed, hurry up the kids need a quick bath and hurry up etc... now 90% of the hurry up is gone which is amazing and my kids probably like this mommy much better now that i can just let them be kids :)


    I know this stay at home mom is all still new to me so it still feels like just a vacation but I am excited. I get to love  on my kids and be there for them in a different way then before. I have the rest of my life to work until I die, right now this time it's about my family!
