Why is it...

in January 2012 Moms

...that every time I put DS down for a nap, every project I was in the middle of goes un-done, and I just want to sit down for an hour and do nothing?!

You would think I would use his nap time to finish up my 400 projects so I don't have to worry about them any more, but man... I do love putting my feet up and not worrying about a crazy 19 month old! 

 While i'm at it, here's my current to-do list:

 Bake Cookies

Mop Floor while waiting for cookies to bake

Finish folding laundry while eating cookies

Start sanitizing bottles/pump parts while enjoying my freshly cleaned kitchen

Figure out better way to organize bottle parts

    I vote you bake the cookies, and just sanitize the bottles.  I used a few sandwich bags to help organize the bottle supplies.  Keep it to the essentials, I think putting your feet up is important (as my feet are up right now in your honor!).

    Well, I just put DS down for a nap and I'm laying in bed bumping, so clearly I am no help. :) I seem to get the motivation to clean around 10pm, so let's hope that is the case again tonight.

    Glad the subject of sanitizing bottle parts etc. came up.  That is on my list for today, but I am a FTM so I need so info.  Did you boil or just put them in the dishwasher?  Then how do you store them?  I have a whole cabinet for his bottle stuff, but I am afraid they will get yucky again if he takes 3 more weeks to arrive.  I saw someome wrote zip lock bags, did you use these for bottles too?  THanks!

    Give yourself a break--it is A LOT of working growing another human! I cannot imagine doing it with a 19month old! Put your feet up and relax!

    Hehe thanks for the encouragement! I DID bake my cookies, and finished mopping while they cooled...

    Put my feet up and enjoyed the hell out of them.

    As for sanitizing the bottles/nipples, I boiled them last time and plan on doing it again. I don't make it a habit...generally I just want all the crap off them that has accumulated from 20+ months of use/storage by DS.

    Normally on the day-to-day we wash them in the dishwasher and I run a "sanitize" rinse cycle on them.

    This is the basket we got for the dishwasher, it's perfect because we use all Doc. Brown's, and it holds the straws on the sides.

    Ugh, I was just saying today how much I think in my head I can get done, but then I waste it during her nap or when she goes down at bedtime.  I also get a burst at night right before I go to bed, but all that other time wasted :(

    I've pretty much been up until 1 or 2am every night for the past week when my nesting kicked in. But, it's only night nesting. lol
