I was thinking about how much I love getting home from work and changing into my "comfy clothes". I love that time of day! A close second is when I'm sitting down to dinner with my family. And who can forget that moment when the kids are safe and quiet in bed and I can have a lovely adult conversation with my husband? What is your favorite time of day, moms, and why?

What can I do next?

I've never had to live by an "alarm clock" to wake me up, so when I arise at 5am to start a new day and everyone else in the house is still sleeping soundly, that is my favorite time. It's been that way for almost my entire life.
Having my coffee, reading the paper and then hearing the stirring of the kids or the hubby are fond memories :)
Now it's just me and the ol' man.... I still get up early but dont get the pitter patter of little feet or the "I'm awake and need to escape from my crib noises" anymore.... but's its still my favorite part of the day and it slips by so quickly! Now it's time to go get ready for work, dangit~ :)

NAP TIME! Haha! My oldest is as school and the little one is sleeping and I can sit down and have a nice quiet lunch, catch up on the trashy TV that I have on the DVR that my husband would never watch with me, and relax for a little bit. When nap time doesn't happen, my day goes down hill fast!

Well I stay at home. My favorite part of the day is laying in bed with my boys just waking up in the morning. Most of the time we don't have to hurry and we can have some serious cuddle time :)

Oh S.!!

I love my kids to death - but there are times when my favorite time of the day is when i've got my boys off to school and my husband out the door to work so I can get the house cleaned or just BE!!!!

Although I do admit - I LOVE when they run in the door from school happy to see me!! That rocks my world!

No particular hour, but every night as I wind down. I have read stories and tucked in two kids. Now is the time i can start unwinding me, sometimes taking a long bath, or getting into the cool sheets and reading my book.

Also, Saturday mornings. Everyone being lazy, staying in jammies, mommy and daddy having too many cups of coffee, cooking a real breakfast and all of us eating it together. Wish saturday morning could last all day!

My favorite time of the day is my morning workout from 6:00 - 7:30. It's me, my music, and movement. Awesome!

When I pick my son up from daycare--I've missed him all day and it's perfect to finally have him in my arms. Especially the times when he puts his head on my shoulder and says "Hi Momma". Then, ya know there are the times when he doesn't want to leave or is grumpy, but even the bad times are good because I'm finally with him.

My favorite time of day is the moment I walk through the door from work... usually about a half hour after my husband and son get home. They are usually playing some kind of "silly game" and don't see me for a minute or two, so I get to just watch them interact and it's wonderful. Then they see me and I get the biggest hugs... every day. I love it.

Singing to my kids as I put them to bed. They're so warm and cuddly and even have that "sleepy smell." Love it.

After dinner, when it's just me and my daughter, and it's quiet wind down relax with each other time. My daughter, on the other hand, might disagree considering she's 14 and would prefer to brood. lol

Hmmm. . .I'd say probably when I pick my two kids up from daycare. It's always so good to see them! The smiles on their faces when they see me and come running is awesome! I also like bedtime. I also like my time on the treadmill in the basement from 5:00-6:00 am. Rocking out to great music while I'm doing something good for my body is great too! : )
