LO just recently started taking naps on her own. My house has never been so clean, laundry is done and folded, I've had time to actually paint my nails...
I wish she slept long enough to get all that accomplished. My LO is just trying to fall asleep now, when she does...I'll hurry to make something to eat and MAYBE pick up a little.

That was me until 2 weeks ago. Child would only sleep ON the momma. Needless to say I didn't get much done. Now I feel like I have SO much free time, lol.
Whenever he's napping, I usually take the opportunity to get some work done (I work from home on Fridays). If I'm caught up on work related stuff, I'll try and get some housework completed.
Sigh... I've been so bad these days.. I should be cleaning right now. We are in the process of moving out of our apartment and things are so chaotic i'm not motivated to clean. I often find myself online, or i eat my lunch and shower, get dressed. We're lucky to get more than 30 minutes in so often times i'm scared to start anything knowing i will just get it touched before i have to get my little guy.
Facebooking.. when I should be getting houshold stuff done. I'm lucky if I get him to nap for 15 minutes a day, but I just can't help doing the "bad" stuff instead of the productive stuff!
I'm still napping with LO. He was colicky and had a hard time napping on his own so I started laying down with him to get him to nap. Still haven't stopped ! So... I Bump, surf the net and sleep. Helped lots with PPD too. I'd rather have a rested LO. I'll worry about cleaning later!
Ha! LO only naps 30 min at a time, so I usually eat while bumping for alittle and then pump or maybe pick up like 3 things around the house. When she used to nap longer times I would get stuff done, but I need 20 min to myself first. and then she's almost done napping so nothing really gets done anymore.
I'm a working mom and so when Tegan naps on the weekends I use that time for myself. Sometimes I'll get housework done, but normally I spend time bumping or catching up on my DVR'ed shows.
Re: What do you do while LO naps?
I WAH, so I frantically check my emails, make calls, etc!
During his afternoon nap I usually make dinner so it's ready to go/bake/whatever when DH gets home.
In my bag: Canon 60D, 50mm 1.4, Tamron 28-75 2.8, 430exii

I usually run around and clean the house, but some days I just relax and watch tv or read..usually I find some time to bump too haha
