My Life As A Middle Child - Putting Together The Pieces

Working at home is tougher than the office

My DH never says anything, but when he comes home from work on Saturday's and finds me in my pjs, he has this look of "It must be nice not to do anything all day". Well, for the record, I would just like to say that I do work on weekends. Do men really have no clue at all what we do all day??? For instance here is what I did this past Saturday...


Changed Doodlebug's diaper
Made/fed her breakfast
Cleaned up a messy Doodle
Changed Doodlebug's diaper
Cleaned up the breakfast dishes
Played in the floor with Doodle for approximately 1 1/2 hours
Changed Doodlebug's diaper
Put Doodlebug down for a nap
Emptied out the Diaper Genie (uck)




Picked up all the toys in the living room, family room and kitchen
(here is just some of the mess in the family room)



Picked up the puzzle from the kitchen table and cleaned the table
Sat down and blogged for a few minutes (also talked to Easily Amused at the same time)
Changed Doodlebug's diaper when she woke up

Made lunch for myself and Doodlebug
Wrote out my shopping list


Cleaned up a messy Doodle
Cleaned the high chair and kitchen floor of all noodles and peas (yes, she is feeding herself and unfortunately, the floor around her)




Changed Doodle's diaper and got her dressed for the day.
Danced and played ring around the rosey with Doodlebug
Played Ball with Doodlebug
Put on Dora to capture Doodle's attention


Picked up all the toys in the living room, family room and kitchen.
(notice the nice mess she left me from her star puffs, little crumbs everywhere)





Looked at clock... it was only 2:00 and I was already exhausted

Ya, it really must be nice to lie around all day and do nothing, but I wouldn't know about that.

Oh, I did dispel his myth that I like to go to Target and/or Walmart and just spend tons of money for the heck of it. How did I do this you ask??? I made him go with me on Saturday night and he saw how easily you can drop $90 on Toilet Paper, Contact Solutions and the such.
