As I sit here at 11:29 on Monday morning still in my pajamas, because Crewe decided 5:45 was a good time to wake up this morning and not go back to sleep, so Momma decided when he went down for a nap she should too and not wake up until 5 minutes ago (how's that for a run-on). Although if I am really being honest there has to be somewhere for us to be before noon for me to get out of my pajamas on any given day before lunchtime i.e. church, dr. appt, or the weekend so the hubby doesn't think I am a complete slob and do that every day ; )
I mean I give some serious kudos to you working momma's out there. It is not like when you have a rough night with your little one you can do the laziness I mentioned above.
As I have mentioned in an earlier post, I
function heavily refer occasionally to my do list and feel somewhat like a failure when I could not get everything marked off my list that day or when I felt Crewe spent 30 minutes too long watching Baby Einstein to allow me a chance to wash my hair.
And usually on days when I do get ready it consist of me changing from fleece pajama bottoms and a tank top to yoga pants and a t-shirt (sexy I know). What gets me is how much I LOVE to go shopping for hip and trendy clothes, which were usually hip and trendy 2 years ago because I am ALWAYS 2 years behind on what’s in style, and then I get them home and never wear them because I always fall back to my trusty old yoga pants.
and this is on a good day because my hair is actually washed,
notice Crewe still in his p.js at 2pm
and again still in p.js at around 3:30
Anyway, you get my point.
If I am REALLY being honest about 30 minutes before everyone comes home is when I throw all the toys into bins, brush my teeth, throw a hat on, touch up my make up, and get Crewe out of his pajamas, like it has been that way since we woke up.
So my secret is out. I feel like a complete bum when it comes to tending to myself most days, but do get to spend a ton of time playing with this little guy, since I totally neglect myself. : )
Happy Monday!
I always think of this poem:
ReplyDeleteThe cleaning and scrubbing will wait till tomorrow,
For children grow up, as I’ve learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust go to sleep.
I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep.

Especially on days like today where I REALLY want to mark things off of my to do list so I can feel productive and accomplished...
And I think all SAHM do the pajama thing! Thank God for yoga pants is all I'm saying.
You're little guys is adorable! I think we all have days like that now and again, it's hard to schedule your day when your time is not your own anymore :)
ReplyDeleteI have to say, I love the Yoga Pants! I could go into detail as to why but wont! ;-) I wish i could stay in my pajamas most of the day!
