A Mom's week
It was beautiful outside yesterday. The weather and temperature were perfect. If only the weather could stay this way. Although it's not Fall just yet, it's starting to feel that way. Can you smell it?
After we ran some important errands yesterday, I took the boys outside to play. We had a blast playing golf in the yard with dollar store golf sticks. We played outside for 2 hours and I'll admit I had just as much fun as the kids. I've been very busy lately with my home business and this fun break was very much needed. I take the boys outside everyday but usually I let them play while I write, read, or catch up on some work on the laptop.
Since I started sticking to my new "get up a few hours before everyone" schedule, I've been feeling much more in balance. I guess as much as balanced as I can be anyway considering I work at home and both kids are at home.
A few days ago we ( my 5 year old & I) made this for our door. It's a fun Fall learning activity that we found online. Today my 5 year old and I are making a book. Yep, he wants to make his very own book. He can't read yet but he is very good at writing/copying words, coming up with ideas, and drawing so we are going to work together on this. I'll post some photos when we are done.
I've noticed lately that my comments section is pretty weak. So come on out and de-lurk today. If you read my blog, I'd love to know and I'll add you to my ever growing blogroll if you arent already there. It only takes a minute to leave a comment. :) *Oh, and I'm asking you on what you want to see here. Give me some suggestions on what you want me to share. I'm pretty open. I know I have a bunch more readers ( some new family & friends too) than comments so I'd just like to know who some (or all) of you are.
Also, if you haven't already go check out the top toddler mom blog and go look at some new blogging jobs I posted about on Jobs For Stay at Home Moms. It may be something for you.

Hi Amanda,
I read all your posts. :) Thanks for your note on my blog this morning. I would love for you to link to http://www.dinewithoutwhine.blogspot.com/ Cute monster project!
Cute craft y'all did there.
And golf sounds fun. We play in the backyard sometimes and my kids are so much better at it than I am. (of course, that's not saying much!)
My daughter and I have been loving the weather lately, too. We get outside everyday (I think we'd be a little nuts if we didn't), but the past few days have been perfect.
I've been reading your blog for a while now. I've enjoyed reading about how you balance work at home and family life as that is something I'm struggling with now. I take a little time at night after everyone else is in bed to get some work done. I wish I could get up earlier, but I'm so not a morning person.
Thanks for adding me to your blogroll!
Well, I don't need to delurk b/c I typically comment....but thought I'd still leave you a little hello!
Great door decoration by the way, very creative!
I love the Fall project... hard to believe, with all the hot weather, that it is actually autumn!
Hellooooo...
I lurk here sometimes, cuz I can't always post comments with a WonderBaby hanging off my neck. But I do come by!
Hi there...have enjoyed popping in and reading your blog for a month or two now?!
Think i found it through Chelles website?
Enjoy reading your comings and goings and thoughts on things
Have added you to my favourites so will keep on reading!
That's awesome that your 5 year old wants to make a book. Sounds like he may take after mom and become a writer!
Well, I like to pop in for some visits, but sometimes I just lurk. Anyway, you already know me.
That is great you are making a book togehter.
I always comment ... hehe .... I do not think you should change a thing, your blog is awesome, it is you, perfect!
I love that you painted the door! I used to paint our front windows! hehe before we had a kid! I will have to do another for Becca!
Making a book sounds so fun!
Cute Door hanging :) Fall is so much fun for moms and kids.
