A Day In The Life

July 30, 2014 By Michelle 4 Comments

So, it is no secret that my favorite form of social media is Instagram.

I love seeing snippets of peoples lives and their families throughout the day.

It’s way better than Facebook because I get the pictures without all the political rants and candy crush requests.

I figured that since we have several new mamas around these parts lately {Hello new friends}, I thought I would share a little more insight into the glamorous world that is my life.

It’s pretty glamorous, I am not gonna lie.

8am

So the coffee is not a rare occurrence, but the time sure is. The twins wake up at 7 like clock work, but for whatever reason yesterday they were kind and let mama sleep until 8. It’s amazing what an extra hour can do for a girl. Well, an extra hour and coffee.

9am

While the boys watch their morning “choo choo” aka Thomas The Train, I usually sit on the couch and catch up on emails. Or the Kardashians. Trash reality TV is my guilty pleasure and not having cable won’t stop me from this madness.

10am

Laundry. Every day, All day.

11am

The witching hour. Hour before nap, and an hour before bed. These tears were because I would not let him chew on the clean underwear I had just folded from the laundry. Mean Mom award goes to me.

12pm

Lunch time for mama. Taco Salad for the W-I-N!

1pm

Now, this is something rare, and I am so glad it got to be documented. The husband got out of class early {Yay} and he came home and insisted I get out of the house for some “me” time. Mama got herself a pedicure and it was glorious!

2pm

I text the husband to ask him if there is anything he needs from the grocery store and this is what he replies. Apparently being in school with 80 twenty three year old girls will do this to a guy. Starbies? Really?

3pm

Just like there is always laundry, there is never enough milk. I just don’t get it.

4pm

A quick trip to Old Navy, that was a big waste of time. Does anyone elses child insist on seeing the dog at the front of the store? Every stinkin’ time she needs to tell it Hi and wants her picture made with him. Every time.

5pm

Best time to get your car washed? Right after the giant thunder storm. Zero people waiting in line and mamas Vanborghini is all fresh and clean.

6pm

Tuesday nights my friend Katie and I take a photography class offered at her church. It has been fun to sneak away for a few hours of me time and to learn more about my camera.

7pm

Talking flashes and ambient lighting. So many cool gadgets. Not enough money.

8pm

Came home to an amazing dinner. Clearly the husband was trying to win brownie points after the whole Starbies comment.

9pm

And at 9pm it’s time for mama to unwind and prep for doing it all over again tomorrow. The Malibu makes the prepping more fun.

And there you have it ladies. Don’t let my glamorous lifestyle fool you, we can still totally be friends.

Seriously though, we should be friends.

Instagram post 17864637601827512 This is what happens on day number 3,568,743 of quarantine: ice cream sundaes for DINNER. We have been spending endless time together and decided it was time to start a new family tradition, so we picked up the new DIY Sundae Kit from @baskinrobbins! The kit comes with 2 pre-packed quarts of ice cream, 3 toppings, an entire can of whipped cream and cherries! Ice
cream for dinner will now be a weekly staple. The kids are definitely not complaining! It’s a fun day with a Sundae! 
Comment below and tell me your favorite Baskin Robbins flavor!

Instagram post 17850899390014309 Disney is challenging us to share our first pictures with characters! I had to join in the fun and it was the best trip down memory lane. Disney has been threaded throughout my entire life. I pulled a few of my most favorite memories over the years. From partying in the streets during the most epic dance party and meeting our most favorite princesses to me being a kid at Disney myself. Oh, I also had to add a picture of Cinderella’s Castle. She really is the most beautiful cast member of them all! 
@waltdisneyworld we miss you more and more each day. You’ve brought us joy beyond words and we cannot wait for the day when we get to walk down Main Street USA again! 
Ok, now it’s your turn. Find your old photos of your favorite Disney characters and share the magic. Also, don’t forget to tag me. I want to see all your memories too!
