Each morning, after waking up, I have a list of things that I do in the house. They’re not too hard, but the make the day run a lot smoother – and help with maintaining the house. I also have an evening routine that I do just before bed (albeit nightynighttimewithmyhusbandisnotlisted although I like that to be as routine as possible!). All of my routines are printed on paper with adorable homey-effect clipart in the background.
The routines I have now will most likely change once the baby is born and will include typical motherly duties as he grows, but for right now this is what works for me when it comes to maintaining our humble abode.
Oh…and please excuse my use of cutesy words. Although it may seem like it here, I do not talk like a 2 year old in real life. I just find it a whole lot friendlier looking when cute words are printed on paper. Plus I’m training my mind for future conversations with Lil’ Jack. Cross my heart.
