a domestic housewife = perfection.
You might think that you'd have MORE time when you're not working. The exact opposite is true for me. Remember that "toddler" I was talking about? Well, she's become a wrecking ball. That's what Seth nicknamed her the other night. She's everywhere and into everything. I'm actually quite pleased that we have a small house during this time of her life. While in some ways it might be nice to have a little more room for her to run herself tired, it's nice having a small area to keep her in. It means LESS mess to clean up. I'm really enjoying being home with her though. My life has been overtaken by purely domestic duties and I am happy with it. Okay, so I still don't love to cook, but at least I now have time to do it and we are eating before 7-7:30 each (read most) nights. Maybe it won't last and maybe I'll get bored (I don't foresee it but you never know) but for right now, it's perfect.

Baby gates are a life saver at that stage! Or any stage from between when they start crawling and can finally get the gate open themselves. We used to have a gate that went in DD's bedroom door so she could play in there if I needed to be able to do something without wondering what she was getting into - like washing dishes or cooking lunch. She had an armoire in her room that had all her clothes, diapers, creams, etc in it that had child proof locks on it so the only thing she could get into in her room was her toys, it was a great way for to be able to allow her some freedom and still be able to do the things I needed to do around the house.
