Thank you~

Answer 1

You keep your house clean too?
WOW! You go girl!
You know husbands "don't Get it" your right.

Mine on his "day off" reminds me that its HIS DAY off and often times, I just leave to run errands and leave him with the kids for several hours so I can have some alone time and actually use the restroom by myself. So I do my errands last and go to a quick movie or get my toes done ( he never notices-but I do). Sometimes I just "mall crawl" and actual eat adult food .....yeah!

Answer 3

I used to be a SAH mom when my older 2 were babies. I also watched a neice that was 6 months younger then my younger child, so I had three young ones at home. My older 2 are 2 yrs apart. Going outside alot when it was nice is what I always did. I had small activities for them to do also (when they were old enough). It's alot of work, no one is perfect. So if the dishes don't get done for a day, don't freak. As long as your kids are healthy and happy, that is all that matters. I waited until hubby came home to cook dinner, so I didn't have kids crying at my legs. lol
