SAHMs

Do you put make-up on everyday?  Do you hair?  Change out of your pajamas?

Do you change your LO(s) out of their pjs everyday?

Do you try to get out of the house everyday?

Just wondering....

Re: SAHMs

  • Do you put make-up on everyday?  Nope, only if I am going somewhere other than Walmart

    Do you hair?  Nope, again only if I go somewhere other than Walmart

    Change out of your pajamas?  Lately no since it's been so cold in Texas.  I wear my PJ bottoms, a sweater and some slippers.  I look very fashionable  :P

    Do you change your LO(s) out of their pjs everyday?  In the summer I let Macy run around in her diaper on most days.  But since it's been winter I usually leave her in her PJs until we go outside (if it's not too cold) or go to the store.  

    Do you try to get out of the house everyday?  If it's not too cold!  Well, actually, not everyday but I do try to get out a few times a week.  And it's always to the grocery store!

     

    What do you do?  I kinda feel like a bum when my H comes home and I look like a mess.  But I don't care enough to really do anything about it!  Ha.

    Yes I do but my DD is 13 so I have to get her from school. 

    Do you change your LO(s) out of their pjs everyday?

    She is 13....so, she can't wear PJ's to school 

    Do you try to get out of the house everyday?

    Yes, this is a joke in my house, I go the the grocery store daily just for something to do. I used to go to the park, but at 13 people look at her like she should not be on the swing set! I have thought about joining a YMCA, but we have a pool, trampoline and BB goal so H does not want to spend the money!  

    Just wondering....

     

  • I stay in my PJs, with no makeup on, and my hair in a pony any day that we dont leave the house.  In the winter, we rarely leave the house!  But in the other seasons, we go for walks nearly everyday or do something.  Then I will change and put a lil makeup on, but my hair usually always stays in a pony. 

    I keep the babies in their PJs too if we are staying home.  They just seem so warm and cozy in their footy PJs, why change them, is my thought!

  • I do try and change out of my pj's every day, although I'm only 1/2 there today.  I don't put makeup on if I'm not going out (and sometimes don't put it on if I'm only running to Publix or CVS or something), its good to give my skin a day to breath.  I try and at least brush my hair, or just put it in a pony.

    I also try and put clothes on Q, right now he's wearing his PJ shirt and big boy underwear, so we're not totally there. 

    I do try and go somewhere every day, but if I don't that's ok too.  Q goes to school M/W/F, so I'm already out of the house then.  Today he doesn't have school, and we don't have much planned.   My day is split into BN (before nap) and AN (after nap).  I probably won't go anywhere BN today, but maybe AN, we'll see. 

  • Not a stay at home mom, but when I am home with DD during the week or even on the weekend I don't do my hair or make-up and if I'm not leaving the house, I don't even get dressed.  DD, depending on the weather will either be in her pjs all day or a shirt.   

  • It sounds like you ladies need Pajama Jeans:

    No.  DH knows about them and would make fun of me mercilessly if I ever bought any.  Sad

  • I saw the PJ Jeans on the view a few weeks ago!  They sound......interesting!  

    But I am sure they would look much better than my current outfit.  I am wearing my H's running pants, a t-shirt and this ugly sweater I have had for about 15 years from Abercrombie.  It is made of a soft wool knit and has quilted jersery lining with a zipper down the front.  OMG, it's ugly but it has been my house sweater for the last 15 years.  It's so ugly I won't even wear it down the the mailbox!

  • Do you put make-up on everyday?  Usually most days, I need foundation and under-eye concealer or else I look like death.

    Do you hair? I brush it, that's about it

    Change out of your pajamas? yes

    Do you change your LO(s) out of their pjs everyday? yes

    Do you try to get out of the house everyday? Yes most definitely or else I will go stir crazy.  Even if I just go for a car ride or to the grocery store, it's needed.

  • Update - we're now both dressed!  Even if our outfits aren't the best, they aren't pj's!
  • I put some sort of make up on everyday yes.  If we are just hanging around the house I still change out of my PJ's...I don't know why I just have to.  A lot of times I will throw work out clothes on even if I don't work out that day.  And yes I'm wierd about clean hair so I wash and blowdry my hair everyday.  

    I always change the boys into clothes in the mornings.  Again..not sure why but it's one of my quirks.  

    We usually get out on average about 3 days a week.  I belong to a local multiples group so we try and get together once a week for playdates of some kind.  Or I will take the boys to the gym, just something to get them out of the house.  They get sooooo bored if we don't get out and do things and bored 2.5 year olds are no fun at all!!   

  • Do you put make-up on everyday?  not if I am staying home all day. I like to think it's to good for my skin to breathe, but it's really more laziness.

    Do you hair?  I usually wash and blow dry it everyday, but sometimes if I'm not going any where I might just wear it up.

    Change out of your pajamas? Prepreganacy, I made sure to always be wearing real clothes by the time H came home, even if was later in the day when I got dressed. Lately, I'm I am just uncomfortable, so it's comfy clothes whenever i'm hanging out at home. I do still try to even make my comfy clothes look somewhat cute for H's sake.

    Do you change your LO(s) out of their pjs everyday? He undresses himself when he gets up, so  a lot of the time he's just hanging out in his underwear. When it's cold, I almost have to force him to put on warm clothes. Before he was potty trained, he most often hung out in just a diaper. He's not the biggest fan of being dressed.

    Do you try to get out of the house everyday? No. He has preschool 3 mornings a week, on those days I go run my errands while he's there. On the days he doesn't we sometimes have planned activities, but sometimes it's just really nice to have no reason to leave the house.

  • I'd like to think I am a SAHM since I am off over the summer haha.  DS usually changes himself like 3 times a day, so I dont have to worry about that one.  Me?  Not if we arent going anywhere.  I dont do makeup a lot over the summer bc i think it is good to give my face a break, so if we arent meeting anyone anywhere iw ont put any on.  I did try to do a bunch f playdates over the summer, so usually we were out of thehouse 2-3 times a week.
