A day in the life of an 11 month old baby and a pregnant mama




Hi everyone :)

Today I want to share with you our routine to go through the day without getting bored ( like you can get bored with a baby lol) my baby's 11 month old and I'm 5 months pregnant with another baby boy:)

we usually start the day at 7am, baby goes to sleep at 7pm and mama at 9pm

so it goes like this:

7am : waking up and feeding the baby 6oz of milk
while he's drinking he's milk I brush my teeth and wash my face
every morning i drink a glass of lemon water with my vitamins, I LOVE lemon water it is sooo refreshing!!
after that we watch a couple of cartoons, he doesn't really watch anything yet, and we play 

8am: Breakfast for 2
I start preparing breakfast for both of us. I usually make eggs, pancakes, toast with cheese spread cereal or french toast. its always served with a good portion of fruits. while we're eating, we listen to music, my baby loves to listen to music, any kind of music!!

around 9-9:30 am ; 1st nap.
while he takes he's nap, a shower get dressed and do a simple makeup, foundation ,concealer and mascara. Even if I'm not going out I always get dressed so i can feel more energetic and just in case something happened and you have to go out you're already prepared. i really encourage every girl to get dressed do ur hair put on some makeup. It will really change ur mood and will make you feel so good. Staying in pyjama all the day make you feel like not doing anything. Leave the pyjamas for sleeping.
I do the dishes and some chores around the house. soon ill post the everyday routine to keep ur house organised so u don't get overwhelmed. if you do a bit everyday your house will always stay clean.
if I'm planning to go out its time to prepare the diaper bag so i don't do everything last second. Don't forget that I'm pregnant so preparing my bag and putting it already in the car makes me carry a lot less weight with the baby in my arms

11am : baby wakes up.
I dress him up sit him down with something to play with while I'm preparing lunch for both of us.

12pm : lunch time
I usually have the leftovers from the dinner before with steamed veggies, 
and we are ready to go out.  we often go shopping. its winter time so there's not much to do 
if we are not going out we'll play, read and listen to music. if we decided to go out we usually come back home around 3pm and baby naps in the car for about 20 to 30 mins

1:30pm : 4oz bottle
we stay in he's room while he's drinking he's bottle

2pm : second nap
while hes napping I prepare dinner watch tv or take a nap also zzzzzzz

3pm : baby wakes up
I give him a snack and we'll play for an hour

4h30pm : Daddy comes home and I prepare dinner while he plays with baby
I usually prepare something simple and healthy so i don't have to make something else for the baby he eats the same as us (ill post 15mins dinners that i usualy make)

5pm :  FAMILY dinner time

6h20pm : baby Bedtime routine starts!!
Bedtime routine consist of an 8 oz bottle, a bath, a book and the most important, praying together !

7pm baby sleeps :)
alone time with hubby !!! we usulay watch a movie or a tv show we talk and at nine we go to sleep !!

oh yeah !! and then ill wake up 6 times a night to go pee :( lol

I would love to hear your comments and routine
