I wrote this “post” before I even started my blog!  I was debating on writing (which I do now SO infrequently anyway), and I started a list of topics that I titled “Musings for a Blog.”    So this one was written about 9 months ago, and is quite true.  I suppose when people asked me “What do you DO all day?” when I was home on maternity leave, or when some think “How is it that stay-at-home moms don’t seem to have time to do certain things?”, here is a small snapshot of an answer:

Why it takes 45 minutes to eat 8 oz of yogurt

• 9:30 remove yogurt lid
• Realize 2 ½ year old probably needs to use potty
• Run to potty
• Wait till she goes pee and poo poo
• Clean up potty chair
• Help wash hands
• Realize 6-mo-old has pooped
• Take her out of walker, see poop all up her back
• Take baby upstairs to change and put down for nap
• Begin changing, poop all over!
• Not comfortable with “cleaning” her with wipes
• Run bath water
• Find new outfit
• Run to other room where the clean folded laundry is (and hasn’t yet been put away) to find the matching pants to the onesie.
• Give baby bath
• Dress baby
• Put down for nap
• Take previously worn onesie and clean it out in laundry tub
• Separately bag the offending diaper and multiple wipes and throw in laundry room
• 10:15 sit back down to lukewarm yogurt.
• Enjoy
