“So, tell me about your day?” This is the question Josh and I asked each other every morning during our prayer time. My answer usually runs along these lines: “Take care of and play with the kids, feed Isaiah, make meals, take a nap.” In addition to these things I usually list a few projects I could get done, but I’m reluctant to commit myself to getting anything done besides the essentials.
When Josh comes home and asks about my day I usually draw a blank: what did I do today? It takes me the rest of the evening to remember things. This week, I decided to keep a little outline of the things I did while Josh was away. Enjoy a small peek into our days.

Monday: Breakfast, cut out & bake cookies with Becca, feed Isaiah, give Isaiah a bath – Becca wanted to get in too – frost cookies with Becca, give Becca another bath (frosting in hair), clean kitchen, cut/freeze peaches in smoothie packets, feed Isaiah, lunch, doctor’s visit, put Becca down for a nap, feed Isaiah, schedule Isaiah’s 4 month doctor’s appointment, nap, and supper prep.

Tuesday: Breakfast, feed Isaiah, take some pictures for the blog, finger paint with Becca (foot paint with Isaiah), apple snack and reading on the couch with Becca, make some phone calls, feed Isaiah, lunch, put Becca down for a nap – then myself – emails, feed Isaiah, reading with Becca, prepare supper . . . Josh home!

Wednesday: Breakfast, feed Isaiah, give Isaiah a bath, vacuum, work on blog, play games with with Becca, apple snack & reading time with Becca, feed Isaiah, prepare supper & let Becca make a little “treat” for Daddy, feed Isaiah, lunch, naps, feed Isaiah, teach piano lessons.

In case you’re concerned that I never change Isaiah’s diaper . . . these are just the highlights of my days. I left out all the little things.
