A typical day in my home

Well we have reached the 3.5 month mark which means that I now have a lot more time on my hands during the day now that Maddison is over the wind/gas issues and sleeping more during the day.

A typical day at home for me now is:
Get up at 7am (or when Maddie wakes) and feeding Maddie. Playing or Reading until she gets tired which is usually after 1-1.5 hrs. Once she is asleep I have around 1.5-2 hrs to play with, I will usually have a shower and breakfast etc then do whatever cleaning needs doing for the day. Once Maddison is awake I feed her this is normally around 10-10.30am. We will then play again or read till about 12pm when Maddison is due for another sleep. I like to just chill out for this sleep which can last anywhere from 45 mins - 2.5 hours depending on how tired she is, my chill out time consists of looking at lots of crafty things online and playing facebook games usually, I will also have my lunch etc. Once Maddison is awake we will have another feed and then play until around 4pm when she goes back down. I will then do some more housework if needs be or do some baking. Dean arrives home around 5pm and Maddison is usually just waking up at this time. We are currently trying to get her to take a bottle so Dean has the lovely job of trying to get her to take the bottle which is currently very unsuccessful and she just screams the house down, I will get dinner ready and then we bath Maddie at around 6.15 I'll feed her and she should be going down around 7pm. After Maddison is asleep Dean and I will have dinner then we both get on the net or I will do my crafts. Bedtime for me is around 10.30 - 11pm where I will give Maddison a dream feed so she will last the whole night through.

As you can see I have lots of free time during the day at the moment with Maddison sleeping so much so I'm hoping that I can get a lot of my learning done for my sewing and crocheting before she starts to have less sleeps in a couple of months when I won't have so much time.
