How long have you
| Fri, 03-12-2004 - 12:04am |
been a stay at home mom?? I just became a SAHM when my first baby was born last year, I'm trying to occupy my time with some mommy and me classes, but I'm also a full time college student. Whay else do you ladies do to keep things interesting at home with you and baby/kids??



I went back to college for a year, but had to quit when I got pg with baby #2. I love to host birthday parties, and baby & wedding showers. I'm also attempting to learn cake decorating, and I hope to take up painting. DD and I have been playing a lot of "Mario Kart" on the N64 lately (LOL), and sometimes we play play-dough together or fingerpaint. Every once-in-a-while I work on my website (I like to update it for each holiday). I try to keep from getting bored (although if I really cleaned my house like I should I'd never get bored LOL)

When he used to nap I would read, crochet, knit (I'm not too good at knitting), nap or sometimes just watch something for grown ups on TV. We're always playing with something or going outside so I don't think I've been bored for the last 3 years. I remember being bored out of my mind when I was still working counting every tick of the clock till I could get out of there. Now I just go with the flow and try to enjoy every minute.
I found that working my schedule around the kids made my life so much easier and then I had time to do things for me. Then trying to get them to do things on my time.
Oh if you're wondering I get time to check the boards when I'm nursing the baby it's about the only time I get to sit down all day. :)

I have been a SAHM for about 3 years, give or take a few months.
I have two boys, ages 5 and 14 weeks. So I am never bored :)
We have a local moms group in my area that I started, so I am pretty much busy with that, keeping things going for the moms. I also try to work with my son with school related things and do crafts. Now the baby has so much to learn, so that keeps me busy as well. He is a cute baby and all smiles :)
