Sometimes my days melt together, and I don't know which is which, or what day I did what. I attribute this partially to my disorganization, and partially because I can only use so much of my time cleaning, playing, cooking and crafting. Since my discovery of freezer and crockpot cooking (found one at goodwill for $3!), I really don't spend much time cooking. Cleaning is robotic, and very, very repetitive. Playing is the BEST way to spend my time, however, Charlie get's sick of me, and the weather has kept us inside. I don't see the need to waste gas keeping our car when Nestor works, so unless I need to go someplace, I don't. We have a nap and eating schedule, and I usually don't disrupt that. Ever. Charlie has almost always slept through the night, and napped 2 times a day for 2 hours until 14 months, and now still takes a 2 hour nap everyday. He eats like 8 times a day. LOL! AND he eats A LOT! My Pediatrician told me to let him eat as much as he wants whenever he wants. Now, with that said, he eats mostly fruit, whole wheat pasta and rice (usually flavored with no sauce), cottage cheese, pretzels, marshmallows, stir fry, chicken nuggets, black olives, and any kind of bread. I don't really have many friends that I hang out with on a regular basis. I don't belong to any groups. So, aside from Nestor's work schedule, there isn't a lot of organization. But we have fun, and my boy is happy, AND everywhere we go people comment on his happy, well-behaved demeanor.
Something is right. I take satisfaction in THAT! My house isn't always clean, but we're creating memories, and cleaning takes 5 minutes, that he would turn right around and destroy once more. This used to frustrate me, but I'm learning to take it in stride.
