Hey there, I had an idea. It's been a while now since I let you in on what happens in a day in the life of Kristi Menso. And boy there have been a lot of changes in my life. Heck I'M A MUM NOW... So lets do a revamp of a typical day in my life. Are you ready? here we go.......the timeline begins..
THE START OF THE DAY....
4.45am, the alarm goes off. But usually I like to lie for a minute and take a breath in. Since becoming a Mum I work really hard to maintain a productive and healthy routine. Life is so CRAZY busy and you have to have routine to make things run smoothly you agree? Once I'm up the normal house chores happen. Making the bed and unstacking the dishwasher. Now because I'm obsessed with being super organized..just ask my husband! all our lunches are done and ready to go in the fridge.
Then it's time to put washing on and have a shower and get myself ready for the day before our shining star wakes ups!. Once I've had a shower it's time to open up my Daycare room downstairs. Now if all goes well and baby girl is still sleeping (which she usually is) I get ready for the day, start paperwork and have everything ready for our activities for the day. Now most mornings I then make my coffee and sit down and put my head phones on and listen to one of my favorite podcasts while having my coffee. By that time our shining star is awake and ready to get up have her breakfast, bath and start her day.
LUNCH TIME AND NAP TIME...
After a busy morning of learning and playing at Daycare with mummy, it's well and truly time for a healthy lunch and hopefully a nice long nap. All my kids are on their beds and ready for lights out at 12 o'clock. once everyone is tucked in and sleeping soundly it's Miss Kristi's time for a healthy lunch, a bit of a rest and get some work done. While the kids are sleeping I give myself time to rest and then get some work done, daily paperwork, put tea on and fold washing (It never ends does it!!) and my writing for you !! for the Blog and Instagram. You can also follow me on Instagram @kristisinspiration. But as a Mum you know sleep times can change! So I take every day as it comes and GO WITH THE FLOW. It is sp important to give myself to just be still, close my eyes and refocus on what is happening for the rest of the afternoon.
AFTERNOON AND FINISHING TIME...
Afternoons we like to spend outside in the fresh air playing. Once everyone is awake and had afternoon tea we make our way outside with our hats for some more play time. The kids love having a swing and a slide. Not to mention racing while riding bikes. Miss Kristi holding her breath!! Once it gets close to pick up time we go back in side to wash our face and hand, tidy up toys ready to go home. Then I start to empty the bin wipe table and equipment down with disinfectant ready for the next day.
SUMMARY OF MY NORMAL DAY..
OK... you have probably noticed my day is a normal, Mummy typical, crazy busy day. But it somehow all works. How about you? What is your typical day like? Does it sometimes feel like a roller coaster!! I'M HEARING YA... but i can't stress enough how important it is among the chaos to take time to breathe and refocus and check in with yourself. Ask yourself "How am I doing"? Never be afraid to ask for help.
Kristi Xx
