We had such a great day today! I’m glad I documented some of it for SnapChat. I usually do this when we go somewhere fun and I want my sister to share in it while she’s in Chicago. But now I’m glad to have this morning till night glimpse of a day with Jack. I know in 10 years I’ll be overjoyed to see my little guy as a toddler!
It was an average day but we did a lot and that made it so awesome! We woke up easily with no alarm and headed out for a Hip Mama play date at the trampoline park. It was Jack’s first time there. He is a relatively shy kid and I really notice his attachment to me when we’re with other kids. But today I was thrilled to see his interest in the other kids and parents. He’s definitely learning and I think day care is helping with that. Then we ran to the store for some groceries and it started snowing a ton! Instead of freaking out about the snow like a normal Perri or even Pittsburgher, for that matter, I decided we needed a sled for Jack. So we ran by Toys R Us to buy one with a gift card from Christmas! It was perfect! I put it right to use and dragged Jack to the house while I carried in the groceries! Then we bundled right back up into his snowsuit and headed outside for a few more rides on the sled. He loved it! Our evening was easy at home and I even prepped healthy meals for the week and made smoothie bags for the freezer. I felt like a Pinterest SAHM today! Ha! Honestly though I’m glad I was so productive!
Not every day is this action packed but I do feel great when it happens. Plus it helps on the days that Jack watches like 3 hours of Daniel Tiger while I lay on the couch because I’m too tired to move (I don’t snapchat those days). I can remind myself that’s sometimes it all comes together and I know that I’m not terrible at this parenting thing!
