This is a picture of the Shepherd Grandkids!!
(SAHM means Stay At Home Mom)
So I have been at SAHM for 8 1/2 weeks now and am only beginning to see the huge differences in my life. My "littles" are an absolute joy to be around and I love having the time to help them develop emotionally, cognitivly, motor skills and more. . .But I haven't quite figured out how to carve out "me" time. I feel that when I am home, I have to be doing something. (There is always something to be done.) So I have decided that there are some things in my life that I need to be a good SAHM and wife:
*the gym or workouts w/o kids ( This really helps my energy level and destress)
*girltime (if I don't get this to talk, then poor Ryan has to listen to me for hours as I tell him everything and include all the details!!)
*pedicures (ok, i just like them and have two GC's to use :) )
*highlights ( i need one NOW)
*Sistertime (8 days to go until all the Helmer girls are together!!!!!!!!)
I'll let you know if I actually take the time to do all of those things.
NOw, Ryan also needs his own "me" time....well hopefully he gets it golfing and sitting in the car for hours on end in traffic...:) Seriously, time management is going to be huge for us in fitting everything in!!
