My husband to be watched the kiddo so that i could go say good-bye to a dear friend that i put off because i wasn’t ready to say good bye to her yet and always made an excuse saying “who would watch the baby” it was very comforting to sit and talk to her and say goodbye and have her let me know she is still with me <3
I am with my son 24/7 and struggled for a long time with guilt for doing things for myself. In fact I still struggle with that today. In almost 12 months I have only ever been away from my son for a total of MAYBE 6 hours max. I am literally at his beck and call but have come to realize that I am also important too and when I get more sleep even if it’s only an extra hour of sleep I mother better, have a little more energy, and just feel better so to answer your question what have I done for myself this summer? I have let my husband take over weekend mornings so I get an extra hour or two of sleep and it makes the world of difference in my day!
I went to Chicago & ate the best pizza ever!
I played my second season of roller derby!
I bought P90x so I can work out while she sleeps
P90X is such a great program! I was doing it before I found out I was pregnant and cannot wait to get the ‘A’ okay from the doc so I can start it again!
Good for you! (Plus I always found I had even more energy after I worked out then when I started)
I splurged and bought myself new maternity clothes!
What did I do for me this summer? I re-vamped my look and daringly cut my bangs! I know, I’m living on the edge.

I had a couple Mike’s Hard Lemonades and took some naps while the kids did “quiet time.”

I got a few mani pedis, all by myself!
I was pregnant with #5 until mid July and my feet were constantly hurting along with pains in my legs, so I decided to go and get a pedicure. My girlfriend came in town one week before I was due (four days before I delivered) and we went to the spa and treated ourselves to pedicures and manicures. Best pamper I had done for myself in a long time.
I went out and got a manicure with my best friend without the kids. It was much needed!!
Nothing JUST for me… I got to spend a couple weeks with my family but that was for the kiddos as well!

Went to dinner with my hubby (without baby)!
Hit up the beaches in Newport and spent hours in the pool for our baby girl’s first family vacation!!
Is it bad that I can’t think of one thing? I think the closest thing to “me” time I’ve had all summer is going to get my haircut! But now that the thought is in my head, I’m going to plan a “Mom’s day off” for next weekend
With my hubby out of town all summer not much, but I have been able to start running and did a little reading.

Had a date night with my husband for the first time in 2 years!

Then, for some reason, at her 6 month appointment I was talking to her nurse and we chatted about cloth diapering-it hit me….I have been cleaning poop out of her clothes for the past 6 months…how is this any different? I have a friend who uses gdiapers and I checked them out….and that is how my love affair with gdiapers began. I have no doubt that this bag and the goody feeding kit and sunscreen within will be icing on the cake!!

I went and got a massage.
Great prize set! We love gdiapers in this house. It’s the only cloth my husband will use.

This Summer, what I did for myself, well I made memories! I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl. Something I wanted so much. I have a handsome little boy as well. My family is complete. I made new friends and found new places to explore whilst in Scotland. My husband and I got “me time” by going out together for the first time in a year and spending a romantic night in a hotel! Now that’s what I call me time! And now we are taking a late summer vacation to Mexico to relax and enjoy each others company with my mother babysitting the kids for us. I am not going to lie, my biggest thing I have done for myself is made my husband get up with the kids on one day each weekend so I could attempt to sleep in.

I thought I already left a comment, but I don’t see it. My original comment stands though: My husband and I tried for six years to have our son. So, honestly, every moment this summer is spent making memories with my baby, and it is 100% something I do for ME. (I’m sure the little one doesn’t mind either
I went on long, fast and hard bike ribes!
I finally asked my mom to come down to help out with our precious little Mady, little did I know, she was just waiting for the invitation! Can’t wait for 3 generations of gals to spend some quality time together. Just shows what good can come from a little humility (wish I’d realized that sooner- ha!)
After having my baby girl in April i really wasn’t able to do to much this summer but i did use a groupon ans got my hair professionally colored was so nice to not have to do it myself for once.

Pedicures!
I got to see a movie with my best friend! now if I can just remember what movie it was… :S
Had a pedicure… It was wonderful!!
I got to spend a few hours with my mom, just me and her. She took me to lunch and bought me a new dress and she lives across the country so this never happens. She really wanted to spend time with the kids but I really needed the time her. She’s always there for me.
This summer I taught myself how to ruffle, because with 3 boys I am in desperate need of a ruffle or two in my life. Sadly they aren’t for my child (YET!) but they are cute and I love them.
I had a baby this summer! The best summer of my life, for sure!
Got to spend the night at my local Zoo. Sleeping with the animals is so much fun.
That is an adorable tote and a fabulous bundle! I’d love to win…it is my birthday monday.
Let’s see…I had a baby at the beginning of the summer, so not a lot of me time. We did take a trip to yellowstone and I sat out on the porch of our hotel for a long, long while and watched the sunset each night. It was fantastic!
I strapped on some goggles and went swimming!
I started using gdiapers for my baby girl!
My parents watched my son for me so that my husband and I could go to dinner and see a movie.

The baby and I enjoyed ourselves going to the Pool, and festivals everyone loved seeing such a little baby having do much fun and even dancing to the music.

I went out on a girls night for the first time in two years!
I read the Fifty Shades of Gray Trilogy!
What I did just for me…I’m a working mom so all the free time I have I want to be with my boys so I don’t really give myself time for me. But I did start a blog of goals that I want to complete over the next 3 years. Finding time to write has been a challenge but the hour I take to my self to write and help other moms reach their dreams and goal is all worth it!
Hmm…after reading your question and thinking about it for a while I can honestly say I haven’t done anything for myself all summer but with a newborn and 3 other children I don’t have a lot of time right now.

This summer, I spent adjusting to motherhood. My first child was born on March 1st. I also created a group for local “crunchy” mamas to connect and we spent the past few months really growing close and learning a lot about cloth diapering, natural remedies, pure love and family.
After my baby spent most of her first year of life in hospitals in 2 different states, I went to my parents house in the country to relax and let someone actually take care of me. My husband and I are expecting our 5th baby now and the week of rest at my parents was very good for me to recharge and be a good mommy. We just celebrated our baby”s first birthday Aug 19, something we did not expect we would ever get to do.
I went to the cottage!
I had my sons grandparents watch him and took a weekend out with my man,We went on an amazing walk through the bored walks and went to a restaurant that looked over the city and slowly turned, spent as much time together as possible before he left town to work again. It was very wonderful.
I started training to run my first half marathon!
Went on a roller coaster! It’s been to long since I’ve gone on one!!
I need it so bad!!
Packed up my 6 mos old & our 11 yr old & went back to St.Louis (recently moved to Florida) to assist my “sister” after the birth of her bebe! Love having another momma that’s as granola as me
I went for long, QUIET, walks in the evening while my husband put the kiddos to bed once a week.
Since my love has been working on the road since April, I took an extra semester off of grad school to be a SAHM (and save on daycare costs!). It’s meant time with our son in sprinklers, at pools, parks, and finally in August, the beach. He is such a water baby that he cries when we take him out, even if he’s frozen! It’s been a great gift!
I read a whole book series, just for myself!
A weekend away without the munchkins, bought a book-and red it, started Zumba-Love it!!
I got a gym membership that includes 2 hours of childcare per visit!

This summer I had my baby! I’ve spent the summer enjoying being a new mommy.
I rid my household of chemical cleaners and replaced then all with Charlie’s soap! Eliminated grocery store bags & trash bags replacing with biodegratable paper bags. We buy from local farmers markers as well. Through this process we have reduced our household trash by half and doubled our recycling & compost amount! Feels amazing!
