because being a sahm does have some perks

What kind of mom are you?

There are so many of us out there, either working from home or going out into the work force.  I feel like I have a pretty great gig being able to be home with my boys but still train my clients part time.  Some days, I must admit are harder than others and I wish in that moment that I was working!  So I thought I would device a list of pros and cons to being a stay at home mom.

Pros:

• You get to watch a lot of firsts
• You get to be with your children all the time
• No worries if your child is being well cared for at a daycare
• You get those all important years of youth that put endless smiles on your face
• Baking, crafting, tons of park time all at your own leisure
• No missing out on school functions 
• Get to meet other sahm moms at child's preschool
• You get to be the one to help educate your little one
• Plenty of snuggle time
• Special moments of a movie and popcorn
• Errand and Grocery helper always on staff
• Always someone to talk to
• Always someone to have just one more cookie with
• Always someone to snuggle with, any time of the day

Cons:

• You lose your identity
• You miss co-workers
• You wear yoga pants way too much even though they are comfy
• You can never have a moment of silence because you are constantly staring at baby monitor
• You are on.  ALL. THE. TIME.
• Dishes are constantly staring you down along with the laundry you keep piling on your bed
• There is always an errand to run
• You are the one that has to go to the dreaded well baby check ups with the shots
• Since you are home, planning meals usually falls on you unless you involve a bbq

Those are just a few of the ones I was thinking of while I was doing one of my many stay at home mom items on my list like....cleaning the bath tub.  UGH.

What would you add to your pro and con list?
