ditl of a single mom

So I thought it would be fun to do a day in the life blog post. My life is kind of boring but, I'm happy with it.

12:30pm - My alarm goes off and I shuffle to the kitchen to make coffee.

12:35pm - Coffee is brewing so I go use the bathroom. I was to tired to take a shower before bed so I had to take one this morning.

1:00pm - I'm clean and thanks to a large cup of coffee able to put coherent sentences together, so I stroll next door to my mom's to pick up D.J. He's still napping when I get him home so I make my bed and lay him down to surf Facebook and drink a protein shake (till he wakes up).

1:20(ish)pm - D.J. is awake so I change his diaper and get some quality snuggle time in while giving him a bottle. My eldest son Michael has woken up and is fixing himself some cereal.

1:45pm - D.J. has finished his bottle so I start Michael's school lessons, and we watch Chicken Little on netflix. (Devlin loves flashy shows...they make him smile).

4:00pm - We take a break from school work. D.J. falls asleep in his bouncy seat after another bottle, and Michael goes on YouTube.

This is D.J.'s longest nap time, so I get some cleaning in. I fold, sort and start a new load of laundry, clean my living room, do some dishes and clip some coupons. 

6:30(ish)pm - Michael is finishing his school work. D.J. has just finished another bottle and we are snuggling in bed and checking our YouTube page.

7:00pm - Michael has finished with school for the day so he goes to his room to play video games. I check out my planner for what I need to do tomorrow.

I change D.J.'s diaper 

and we go into the living room to hang out for a while.(it was hard getting a picture of him swinging).

8:30(ish)pm -  Michael tells me he's hungry and after looking in my fridge and cupboard I decide to make mini mexican pizzas.

 

10:00pm - We have eaten lunch, I fed Devlin a bottle (who has fallen asleep again), and decided to watch Being Human (BBC version). 

11:15pm - My Mom shows up to pick up D.J. for the night and I sneak a quick workout in before Michael and I go to work.

12:30am - We head to work and arrive at the drop to do paper work, fix route cards, clean out the car, and load up with papers. Michael sits in the backseat bagging papers while I drive and throw.

This is outside our only store.

Trunk, that's the store, New York Times (blue), and guard house papers (orange).

Backseat

Finally home

6:35am - Michael and I go inside. We feed the dog (Romeo), and our two cats (Salem & Zahneba). After Taking Romeo out Michael goes to bed. I change into pajamas and read a few more chapters in my book before going to bed.

I fall asleep knowing that in five hours I get to do it all over again...I wouldn't trade my life for anything in the world. I hope you enjoyed a small look into my daily life.
