Something that really helps me establish some sort of balance between parenting and my personal life is trying to stick to a routine! This doesn’t only encourage my little one to build skills with following a routine but it also help’s other’s in the household, myself included! It creates a nice “flow” with waking up, lunches, story time, nap, etc and it also helps my husband and oldest with this intact it really just makes the whole house…dare i say(?) RELAXED lol. Another thing i love to do is meal prep for my toddler being a stay at home mom, I tend to lose my creativity in the kitchen making meals every day for the household, ESPECIALLY 3 meals a days for my toddler and can create a sort of “burnt out” feeling. So if i am doing some meal prepping for like 3 days ahead, i find myself less rushed and worried about what to make-It also helps with sneaking those veggies in that baby don’t like. Having these things in place helps me be able to go do some things for myself knowing my home is running more smoothly gives me the peace of mind in need to leave because let’s be honest mom’s if we are going out to run errands or have a self-care day we tend to consume ourselves with how the little one is doing, even though we know they are in good hands haha!
Having a routine helps with so many aspects of motherhood and raising children. I didn’t realize how much of a difference it can make with my older kids but figured it out early with my newest baby who is 4 months old.
Yes!! A routine is so important. I feel like it makes the day/night go much smoother when the kids know what to expect.
Right! I Completely agree! Definitely helps having routines intact
Same! Today my little one fought his nap time so hard though, so today is a little wonky haha
I completely agree with routines making it easier for structure and giving you peace of mind when your out and about! 
Yes routine is key it can be hard but it is super important
Love this! Having that daily routine and prepping meals ahead really keeps the house running smoothly. It’s so important to have that peace of mind when taking a well-deserved break! Mama! 
Having a routine is so important. I really never understand that until I had kids! And you’re nailing it momma!!
Oh yes! Helps me a lot! 
Thank you so much 
Right! Im down for my days running a little smoother
