A Realistic, Down-to-Earth, Sensible, Practical Daily Schedule for Moms

April 4, 2014 By Channing 23 Comments

This daily checklist for moms will help you feel like you are not alone! This mom life is hard, let’s stick together through the good days and bad!

I don’t know if you are anything like me, constantly looking for the magic answer that is going to solve all of your busy life problems and help you get  your life organized.

But if you are, I am sorry to say I still don’t have the answer!

I am for real one of the most disorganized people on the face of the planet when it comes to my home. I have tried to make cleaning schedules, chore charts, daily check lists and meal plans all to come up short and not actually use them.

My favorites are the one’s I have tried on Pinterest. You know, the ones that say they complete 5 hours of cardio, feed every living soul on the face of the earth, get their kids and the neighbors kids all dressed and out the door, all while solving the worlds problems before 9am. I mean these women have got-it-together meanwhile I can’t find the time to brush my teeth much less keep running back and forth to my check off list.

So, for all of us out there looking for a checklist we can stick to I created A Realistic Daily Plan for Moms. This is a check list you can refer to on those days when life is kicking you in the toosh and realize hey, I am not doing so bad after all.

Realistic Daily Plan for Moms

Alright Moms, speak up! How do you ladies keep it together, or do your days look similar to mine? Help a sister out!

    You are right on track! When I get to the end of a day and only did 1-2 things on my list, I make a list of all the things I did do that were needed although may not have been part of my plan.

    I love this! It’s nice to hear that we are all living lots of similar days! I’ve been a mom that has worked full time and part time in the past. I now stay home and have one kid in public school, one that I home school, and one baby. All scenarios are equally crazy, with the to-do lists just shuffled around a bit!

    This is great! Only add “army” from 5am-5pm with all the other stuff squeezed in from 8pm-11pm and 3-4am. That would definitely fit me! Lol
    But I’m definitely sharing this with my buddies. They will love it!

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!
