#mombrags

So Tuesday I told you all about my new plan to have a productive schedule. I hope to be more intentional in my days as a stay-at-home mom. As I go into it, though, I do realize that most days probably won’t go the way I hope they will.

Some days, like Monday, are great because I get a lot done and feel accomplished. The other days are great too, but I have to look a little harder to find a victory, especially when I’m tired, I have food in my hair, and the little guy is teething or particularly cranky for another reason.

That’s where these little gems come in. I love being a stay-at-home mom, and there are things that are pretty unique to my job description, so my joys probably don’t look like someone’s in a different line of work. Enjoy my little #mombrags that just round out whatever kind of day it’s been.

This sweater is spit-up patterned!
I got a twenty-minute shower today!
My child made it through a day without having to change his clothes after a meal!
I had a conversation with an actual grown-up!
That conversation didn’t involve words like “poo-poo” or “nom nom”!
I got to read an actual chapter book today!
It didn’t rhyme or have pictures!
I got ___ hours of sleep with no interruptions last night! (Insert your own number. Anything more than 1 hour is a win!)
The laundry and the dishes both got done today!
It was warm enough for us to actually get out of the house!
We made it to the gym!
I found five pacifiers I thought were lost!
We survived a trip to the grocery store!
I was super productive during nap time today!
Or – I got a nap during nap time today!
