The Adventures of a Twin Mom

A Day in the Life- July 2019

One of my favorite things to read from bloggers are “Day in the Life” posts.  They give you a snapshot into people’s everyday lives! I wish I had done this while my kiddos were newborns (#absolutecraziness) and then every few months, just so I could look back on it.  I’ve done a lot of Life Lately posts but never a “Day in the Life”, here goes nothing…

The day I’m writing about was a random “work day” last week.  We travel a lot and we do try to keep busy but I should warn you, our normal days are just like everyone else’s…a little boring, we follow a routine, and everything revolves around our two toddlers!

Around 7 am, I woke up (Judd was already at work), I showered, made the bed, let London out, unloaded the dishwasher, started the robot vacuum, and then headed to my office to work for about 30-45 minutes.

Around 8:15, I heard the kiddos start to wake up!  Good Morning, my favorite twinsies!!

I changed them and then it was time for breakfast.  They eat the same thing almost every morning: milk, vitamin gummy, whole wheat toast, bananas, and turkey sausage.

Happy kiddos!!IMG_8034

Last year at this time, we took London to a dog training class and it was one of the best decisions we ever made.  She sat on her “spot” until we released her after breakfast.

The rest of the morning until lunch was spent playing!  These two LOVE to play!

We also talked to Lovey (who had just gotten out of the shower, lol)!

Around 12:00, it was time for lunch!

After lunch, we read a few books and then it was nap time for Camden and Ella.

While, they were sleeping I worked on some photo shoots.  Part of my job as a blogger is creating content and providing brand awareness for companies.  I try to take my “product” pictures one day a week.  Here I’m doing a photoshoot for a shoe insert.  When Judd isn’t home, I use my tripod to take pictures. 🙂

Around 3:00, Judd got home and the kiddos woke up!

Judd, Camden, and Ella ate a snack and played while I finished up my individual shoots and then it was time for dinner!

After dinner, we went swimming for a couple of hours! IMG_8371IMG_8372IMG_8373

Then it was home to take baths and unwind for the day.

Around 9:00 we put the kiddos to bed.  Every night after we put the kids to bed (and when Judd is home and not working), Judd and I grab a sweet treat like ice cream or cookies and watch TV together before bed.  It’s our time to relax before the day is over.

Around 10:00, we both headed to bed.  One more “work day” and then it was the weekend for us! We usually spend our weekends at the beach or traveling. 🙂

Summer is especially challenging without the help of school lunches. That’s why Food Lion is partnering with 7 brands: @aquafina @lays @kelloggsus @saraleebread @campbells @chexmix @breyers this summer for their Summers Without Hunger program to donate meals to local food banks – you can help by donating $5 at checkout at Food Lion and they will MATCH it! Doubling the donations! I am trying to raise up kids that care about others, and when I heard about this amazing @foodlion program, I knew I wanted them to be involved. They loved taking their proceeds to our local Food Lion and donating by themselves! Purchase a $5 donation at checkout in store or with your next Food Lion to Go order today to help child hunger! https://lnk2.io/wj2k6VL #FoodLionFeeds #SummersWithoutHunger #PutHopeOnTheTable

From produce to seafood to baked goods to health & beauty, they've got an amazing selection! This juicy watermelon was from Coosaw Farm https://lnk2.io/w5BsFSN #LocalGoodness #FoodLion

It doesn’t matter how much we vacuum-- between 2 kids and the tough messes from our rescue pet, our carpets do need to be powerfully cleaned often!
