Oh how life has changed with two little ones...
Free time = the 30 minute train ride to work (If I'm not dead tired from the night before. Then it's nap time)
Time with the hubby = on the phone with Hubs while pumping at work
Normal day at work = Emails, meeting, PUMP, meeting, process paperwork, PUMP and Lunch, phone call, more emails, PUMP, run to catch train to pick up son before 6 ~ repeat tomorrow
Weekday evening = pick up kids, eat/make dinner, one bath (me, toddler, or infant - usually not me), infant to sleep, toddler to bed, wash pump and bottle stuff, eat snack to replenish energy ~ repeat tomorrow
Dinner = whatever is available (frozen or at Mom's), in between making Mac n Cheese or grill cheese or meat and rice for toddler
Exciting evening = Grey's Anatomy (only the part that's left after kids are asleep)- oooh drama!
Glass of wine after long day = glass of water (with a side of Fenugreek and a prenatal vitamin)
Good night's rest = a 3 hr block of sleep between feedings
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger...and probably adds more stress wrinkles to my aging face.
Oh, last one:
Smiling, toothless infant
Loving, funny, smart toddler
=
Worth every minute
Le sigh.
Just reading this makes me exhausted. Sorry hun, I know my work hours suck but its not forever. You are doing such a great job and you deserve a well needed pamper you day coming soon. I love you. And our boys very much and am so greatful for all you do.
