I will warn you that the picture quality isn't that great since they are phone pics after all, and also major nerd alert on all the pics I took of myself cuz you know, it's hard to take yourself seriously when you're doing a self portrait. Also pardon my scrappy hair and no make up but lets be honest, that IS how I look most of the time.
So here it is! This is part one (from about 7:30am to Noon.)
Wake up to hear giggles from the girls room. Surprise! Brinley is in Teya's bed. They think they're so funny.
Number one priority: stick the potty trainee on the pot.
Cam's awake!
"Cam! cutie tootie Cam! I love you my baby brudder! I love you cute little baby!"

"Can I hold my baby brudder? You cutie cutie cutie!"

Time to fix the girls' hair. Where should we put Cam? This spot looks good.

Pigtails while we brush our teeth. Man I look hot in the morning!

Big girl Teya getting dressed all by herself

She sees Cam! "Tootie!! cutie tootie tootie! Oh my little tootie, my cutie little tootie" (That is a direct quote)

"Brinley! Come down for breakfast! Brinley?! where are you?"
"Here I am! I find my fishy hat! See?"
"white squares" (aka frosted mini wheats") for the girls. Brinley showing off a square with tons of frosting.

Oatmeal with honey roasted almonds and vanilla almond milk for mom. Lately I'm an almond junkie.
Load all the nuggets in the car to take Teya to preschool
Waiting in the drop off line at Teya's school

Did I mention Teya's preschool is on a farm? Drive slowly, chickens crossing : )
Rush back to send Brinley off to preschool in her teacher's carpool. The girls are now gone.
Nap time for the little Tooter.

Treadmill time for mommy

2.5 hard sweaty miles.
Still no shower or make up but clearly I need it!
post work out snack. I swear these oranges taste like candy.

Now for resistance bands and light yoga

Tomorrow is my weight watchers weigh in so I'm pretending I'm on the Biggest Loser and it's my last chance workout! Bob and Jillian would be proud.
Finally take a shower after my workout.
Tootie boy wakes up! Happy little dude.

Feed Cam, play with Cam, cuddle Cam. yeah for one on one time with just me and Cam!

Cam helps me document my workout on my running calendar/inspiration wall
Here's a closer look. Taber's half marathon training plan on the left, my work out calendar in the middle, my 5K training plan on the right, and pictures and goals to inspire us.
Change little stink. please pardon the pile of diapers on the changing table. I'm too lazy to walk 5 feet and put them in the trash until they pile up so high that I have to. Don't judge. : )

Mom and Cam are dressed and ready to go get the girls. (and yes, I showered and got back into loungy/workout-ish clothes. I like to be comfy at my "workplace" : )
Mommy's snack for the car. I did not in fact eat that whole bag of carrots, but I like to be prepared just in case.

Gotta go to the bathroom. Play with your farm toy till I get back.
Load Cam man in the car, off to get the girls.

Waiting in the pick up line at Teya's preschool. it's 11:30 and I'm already busting out the "mommy juice."
There she is, aww, I missed her : )

We get home with Teya and Brinley arrives from her preschool at the same time! Aw, I missed her too!
Next up: Load the kids in the car and head to Wal-mart in the rain, to pick up mother's day cards....To be continued....

wow I'm tired just reading that! You are a ninja mommy! And what adorable kids you have. :)
Dude if you're doing this to show how not perfect you are it isn't working. Look how much you accomplished and it's still the morning. Way to go on eating so healthy too and exercising. You rock. I love all the pictures. Cam is so cute I want to pinch his cheeks and you look awesome even without makeup. I love the sweaty picture. Too funny. Cool post. Can't wait to see the next one. Hoping it will include some tv "babysitting", computer time, messy house sprint to clean before hubby gets home, time out, and break down pics next :) that would make me feel better about what my day usually includes :) hehe love ya
Haha! Don't worry Sarah, Facebook, blogs, and TV time totally happened in the afternoon! Mornings are just nuts when the girls have preschool. : )
Ha ha...I love Sarah's comment, cuz that is a prett accurate representation of how my day goes! Also, the pile of diapers?? Yeah we get that too...I tell myself if won't happen when we move into our house and I can walk out to the garage to throw them away, rather than down 2 flights of stairs, but we'll see. :) Seriously, I think you are supermom.
You're awesome; except this entire post makes me feel like a total slug! Haha. Thanks for sharing though, it's fun to see how your days go!
I now feel like the biggest bum of a mom EVER! Blah! LOL! You are amazing. I'm probably gonna steal this idea my post will probably consist of a lot of non-productivity and facebooking. Don't judge ;)
I am SO doing this. Monday. I better charge up my phone. :)
Man I'm so glad I'm a Dad...hahahah...but seriously ;)
Yes Tau be glad you are the Dad!! Yes I agree this is awesome and I love the pile of diapers--You are keeping it real and that's how we all like it!! Great job with your eating and yes the "mommy juice" is part of survival!!! And that Cam baby is just too stinkin' cute!! He's changing and growing so much!!!
Love the "mommy juice"! For Mothers Day Jennifer gave me a two liter of diet Cherry Pepsi with a "Mommy Juice" label on it, I think we may just have to start marketing that idea!
