Okay mommies what about you?

How do you indulge? What are you guilt free pleasures that make the chaos of being a parent go a little more smoothly.

I'll go, I get a blowout all the time, my eyebrows waxed and got my first full body massage. I am saving for a new pair of cute designer knee high boots.(Don't tell Dh)

    Books. I read while DD nurses. It makes staying awake during nighttime feedings way easier. Plus its a nice 'escape' during the day. She eats, I relax. Win-win.

    Reading and going to bed early.  I've always loved sleep and DH does the night time thing some nights so that I can just get a little extra sleep.

    Wine & a good book.  If I had the money, pedicures & a massage.

    Couldn't have said it better myself.

    And...a good, long run along the beach (we live right by it) while my mom or DH watches DS.

    I agree with pp. Wine and a good book whenever DH takes over for me for a few hours. I haven't gotten one since LO has arrived but I love pedicures- it always relaxes me. My DH is a pretty good husband- he gives me back and foot massages all the time so I don't really have a desire to pay someone to give me one. Besides I'm not sure I would feel comfortable. :)

    Lol I do this too, except I get so into the book when LO goes to sleep I keep reading! Not the best way to get my zzz's lol

    french fries from any drive thru, an extra long shower, leg waxes (which may not sound like an indulgance, but I love that silky smooth feeling)

    A long, hot bath and a good book.  Getting pampered as well (mani, pedi) but I don't really have the extra cash for that at the moment :(

    Wine and a long hot shower. Shopping and lunch out with friends. Pretty much any time I can get away from DD is a nice breather. DH is out to sea and I have no family in the area, so I'm with her 24/7 without a break. I think within the next couple weeks I'm going to start getting a babysitter to stay with her a couple nights a week so I can finally make it out to the barn to ride my horse.
