A Day in the Life of a SAHM

I am so lucky that I get to stay home with my baby boy. I am so thankful that I do not miss a minute and I have been lucky enough to see every major milestone as it happens. I am thankful to my sweet hubby for working so hard so that I can enjoy this time with my little one. My husband fancies himself a jokester so sometimes he comes home and the dishes aren't done and he jokingly asks me, "What do you DO all day?" I have to repeat - he is joking! : )

So yesterday when he asked me this I decided that I would document my day for him just as my own little "joke"! Today I documented my day from the time I woke up to the time he walked in the door and presented it to him with a big, "THIS is what I do all day" and an even bigger smooch-a-roo! I decided to post it for other people who may be wondering just what stay at home moms do all day.
