Mommy Hours

Before I had children I would hear my friends and family talk about how they stayed up late because that was the only time they could get stuff done with out the kids around. I always thought that was just crazy and when I was a mother I would be able to get all my stuff done during the day so I could sleep at night. Fast forward to two kids later...and well I have changed my tune.
On Sunday the new coupons for the week came out so Monday I got up and got ready to cut my coupons. There we so many good deals I had a TON of coupons to cut. I sat in the office at the computer and cut all the coupons while Jackson watched TV. Sometime while he was watching Jimmy Neutron (his new favorite show) he got hungry and pulled down a box of cinnamon toast crunch. He "poured" him self a bowl where he poured the entire box in the bowl and all over the floor and then, because he couldn't open the fridge, he took my workout water bottle and poured water on it to make cereal. While all this was happening I was in coupon heaven and did not notice until my son came in covered from head to toe in cinnamon and sugar! Then of course I had to clean it up so I got out the vacuum but Duke wanted to be breast feed. So, here is the picture it is 11:00 we are all in our pajamas, Jackson (and the floor) is covered in sugar, there are coupons everywhere and I have one boob out breast feeding as I am vacuuming with the other arm. So what did I learn from all this? My friends and family really knew what they were talking about. I will now cut my coupons at 11:00pm.

Get ready for the constant traveling mess. I am so glad I have a break while Isaac is at school. Just watch out for little helpers.
