They say that you can't complain unless you walk a mile in someone else's moccasin. So not to make you jealous but here's what my day looked like today. :)
4:00am A is yelling
4:15am I give up and feed her
4:35am A back to bed
4:45am A needs pacifer
5:00am Jason gets up (that is my cue to get up and fix his breakfast - I do this willingly.)
5:15am wake B and walk him to the pool for swim practice
5:45am return home help Jason make his lunch, read a few emails and wish him a good day
6:00am fix kids lunches, write a few emails, eat a waffle
6:30am get other 3 kids up and drive to pick up B at pool
6:50am fix kids breakfast
7:10am walk big kids to school & walk back home
7:30am shower, fix hair & I put on some make-up (not my norm anymore)
8:25am clean kitchen
9:00am relax with A (aka feed her)
9:45am play with Z
10:15am go to story time at the library
10:55am come home and have Emma over to play with Z
12:25pm say goodbye to Emma & fix lunch
12:45pm quiet time for Z & feed A
1:oopm eat lunch & watch part of Little House on the Prairie
1:30pm read a little Harry Potter (only about a chapter - A was fussing and I was afraid she'd wake Z) - side note: I'm on HP#7 & all I have to say is, I think it's kind of scary! I'm a wimp.
2:20pm get kids up to go get big kids
3:00pm return home, begin homework
The rest of the evening will be spent making dinner, finishing homework, giving A&K baths, going to community group and finally getting sweet kids to bed.
Today was an especially crazy schedule, most days aren't this jam packed but I thought you might enjoy seeing what some of my days are like. Can you believe people out there ask questions like, "A stay at home mom, huh? What do you do with yourself all day?"

You're rocking this whole stay at home mom thing!
