A Day in the Life

5 a.m.: My alarm clock goes off.  I get up and get ready while Lilly sleeps.

5:40ish: I get Lilly up, change her, and she eats

6:15: leave home to take Lilly to my Mom's house.  I'm so lucky that Lilly doesn't have to stay in daycare!

6:30: Drop Lilly off at my mom's and head to work.

7:00: Get to work and pump for the first time while I sit in the dingy closet in my classroom.  I can usually pump around 2 ounces at this session.

7:35-10:47: Teach, fuss at kids, grade papers if I can, teach some more, fuss some more.

11:00: I pump again on my planning period.  I try to pump for at least fifteen to twenty minutes and usually end up with two-four ounce bottles for the next day.

11:30-3:00: I eat lunch, teach, etc.

3:00: leave school to pick Lilly up at my Mom's...or stay at school to finish up one of my 2342542 projects I have going on (that's usually the case)

4 or 5: finally get home to let the dogs out (Matt lets them out on his lunch so they don't have to hold it for 12 hours), clean bottles, pick up the house, and try to start dinner.

6:30: Matt gets home from work

8:00: Lilly gets a bath, eats, and Matt rocks her to sleep.  While she's getting a bath I pack all my crap up for the next day: lunch, school bag, pump bag, diaper bag, etc.

9:00: If we're lucky Lilly goes right to sleep and we are in bed by 10.  Whew!  The days are long but the years are short.
