Day in the life

How I plan my day as a stay at home mom. I get up around 5am and do some stretches next to my bed. My husband gets home at about 5:30am. We talk for a bit and he goes to sleep. Next, I like to make tea and reflect, pray, and in general have a little 'me time'. 

I get my daughter up around 6:30-7am. Sometimes she likes to eat breakfast, other times a light morning smoothie. We start school at 8am and class is at 10. We usually finish before 12. 

When we are done with school, we do some yoga or ballet. I workout and then break my fast with lunch.
I wake my husband around 1, he doesn't like to get up any later than that. We all eat and spend time together. After my husband leaves for work, I knit and my daughter gets to play in her room or on the Xbox for a bit. None of this includes outside time, running errands or appts. Just a general idea of my day. Plus I don't write in breaks for school or her snacks on here. Explaining every single thing, and every hour would take way to long and it changes everyday. That was a huge run on sentence... Anywho, dinner next and cleaning. We read, knit some more and then get ready for bed around 8. That includes the 3Bs. Bath, Book, Bed. 

We pray and she is in her room for the rest of the night. I plan my day for tomorrow, as much as i can, and either read or knit some more. Sounds like a lot of knitting, but it's really not.
My day changes everyday. Some days run smoother than others and some days we just want to curl up in bed together. We like to get outdoors as much as possible.  

Yay for warmer weather coming soon. Little girl wants to take ballet or dance coming this spring or summer. Excited for that! Our days are not perfect but they work for us. We have fun and I enjoy every minute of everyday!!

Thanks for stopping by.

Life Update

One more school week until spring break. My daughter is super excited about it and she is only in Kindergarten...
Still working on my moms cardigan but I took a break and need to get back to it! I have a couple pattern books coming and I'll start working and some more projects after this cardigan. It's the purling... gets me every time. I've always been a slow purl-er!
Nails are still holding strong. I still have the same design but I broke off the flower pretty quickly. It kept snagging.
House hunting is going good. We looked at a really good one on Sunday and my hubby really wants it. Praying this is the one! Been going to the gym more and liking the stationary bike a lot. I think we will get bikes this summer and take our girl out, get some sun and have a great time!! Not much else is going on at the moment. Pretty boring but I love it. We're doing good and I hope you all are as well!! Have a great day!!

1 year!?!

I cannot believe I let a whole year go by without posting a single thing...
It feels so weird just saying it. Yes, some months were busier than others but I usually made time for doing things I like. I did continue making things but I haven't done a lot of photography either. 2017 was a good but strange year. It flew by really fast and I only remember some parts of it.
Anywho, I've made a commitment to myself to post more blogs, more Instagram pictures (makes it easy to save pictures in one size and place), and to photograph more.
My daughter turned 6 this year and my husband is really wanting a baby. I have to start working on my organization and routine skills. Yes, I still struggle with that :) And as usual, i'm all over the place when I write. Oh, and I also some reviews I want to post!
Okay, enough babble. This will be a short post for today.
Thanks for reading and enjoy your week!!
