[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I WOH FT. I pick my kid up at daycare, go home, bathe him, then make dinner. My husband shows up about the time dinner is getting on the table.

On the weekends, I cook dinner while my toddler is napping. What do you do while your baby naps, OP?[/quote]

For AM nap, I shower, get dressed, make bed, wipe down high chair, vacuum DS breakfast mess, empty the dishwasher, load any bottles/dirty dishes, gather up dirty diapers and take out trash, put away laundry from night before and get a new load started, wipe down master bath (just a quick swish and swipe of toilet and sink) and powder room, reset the diaper bag for an outing (replenish snacks,clothes,diapers-throw out any trash/dirty clothes etc), put away DS's toys.  For PM nap, I check email, mail, deal with any bills or paperwork, maybe call my mom, then I have about 30 mins to myself, where I could ostensibly prepare a meal. [/quote]

So chatting with you mom and chasing emails aren't time for yourself?

You can easily chop veggies, etc. While on the phone. I do it all the time.

I really don't see anything on yr daily list that is preventing you from making a meal, really. You just don't want to. The list of cleaning stuff is pretty minor... I get most of that done before leaving for work, and that's even if I slept in. A lot of it could be done with your sone awake and playing in the room with you. [/quote]
