Being a full time mommy is one of the things that I seldom do since I’m working. During my working days I can fulfill my mommy duties when I got home.
Last week from Thursday to Sunday I become a full time mommy since my parents went to Korea for a vacation. It’s a tiring week for me but happy and fulfilling. Now I would say that I really salute mommies who are full time housewife and mommy, hindi siya biro ha walang katapusan na work.
Let me share with you how’s my week passed as a full time mommy 🙂
Thursday- woke up at 3am to say good bye to my parents. At 6am need to prepare some stuff for hubby who is going to work at 7am. 830am we need to prepare for Litte Kulit school he will be having an exam for 3 days.
Pagdating sa school I need to ask his teachers what kind of Indian costume he needs for his UN, I showed her some pictures and she pointed the white one yung national costume daw, OMG san ako maghahanap nun. We went to SM BF after his exam no available. I asked hubby if he can take a look in SM Muntinlupa since it’s near from his work wala din daw. We went to Alabang Town Center zero pa din, I almost gave up na and the last stop will be SM Southmall, we found one sa Toy Kingdom last piece but it’s not the white one yung brown ang available. I called his teacher and told them that I am having a hard time and this is the only one we can get so they agreed.
So eto naman ang sunod na dilemma, since Little Kulit nap time na he is having his tantrums na he doesn’t want to fit the costume kasi he is looking for the fitting room. What we can do there is no fitting room in the Toy Kingdom, as in mahabang bolahan. Come to think of it that I pretended na pregnant ko to assist us the whole time we were there. I need to buy more to get a ticket for Nickledeon Halloween party so I let him to choose his new toy. Before heading home he insist pa na we should passed by sa SM Prestige for his ice tea kung hindi ka ba naman maloka.
Evening he needs to study, after his worksheet I let him play, after dinner I put him into sleep.
Friday- we need to be at school by 930am, after his exam we went to grocery. We had lunch at home and I put him into sleep. My plan is to leave him for a while and to have my me time, but unfortunately hindi nangyari when I am supposed to leave nagising so sinama ko na. After we bought his CD at bf ruins, I had my pedicure he is quiet naman while playing and he even choose my nail polish.
Saturday- it’s last day of his exam, kung kalian last day he is having tantrums and looking for his Lolo ayaw mag exam. Anyway nakapag exam pa din after we made a deal that I’m going to buy him fries after his exam. We need to be at home before 11am and we need to leave by 12 to 1230 since we are going to attend the Mommy Blogger Philippines Halloween Party in Ortigas.
From 2pm to 7pm we are in Ortigas. Around 9pm we are already home, but he is still hyper and ready to rumble.
Sunday- I was supposed to attend an event at MOA but since I am already tired and Little Kulit needs to rest na since it will be there foundation week and UN celebration the next day. And we still need to do his pom-poms for their cheering. And of course Lola and Lolo will be home na.
I ended my week by watching “Moms Night Out” which is a good movie story behind a full time mommy with 3 kids and a blogger who just want to have one night for herself,
I don’t have regrets to be a full time mommy with Little Kulit for four days. In four days we became closer and we really strengthen our relationship. I was able to show him how much I love him that I can sacrifice my work for his own good.
Being a full-time mom is hard that is true but it is very fulfilling when you see your little ones being happy 🙂 Godbless your family always thanks for sharing mommy! 🙂
Thanks 🙂
It is not easy to look for costume talaga especially sa mall. I haven’t watched that movie yet pero I heard, maganda daw.
Yes as in hirap maghananap the good thing lang I was able to get ticket for Nickelodeon Halloween party. The movie is nice most of the moms can relate
I am a full time while working online and doing my duties as a civil engineer. It is quite hard but it is worth it.
hi! yes every sacrifice for our family and kids is worth it yun na talaga ata ang ibig sabihin ng pagiging mommy anything for your family and children
It’s really hard to be a fulltime mom slash housewife. I’ve been doing this for years already and to be honest. I didn’t know how I was able to manage it. I am so used to having a yaya but my husband insisted I stay home with the kids nalang. I have to give up law school, which really broke my heart. Eventually, I realized why my husband wants me to be a SAHM and if I could turn back time, I will still choose this path 🙂 No regrets 🙂
I really salute all housewife and full time mommy hindi biro ang work taking good care of little ones and the same time manage my house. Now I know the sacrifice of my mom with us.
Hindi talaga biro maging full-time mom and wife at the same time. How I wish enough yung salary ni hubby para mag full time mom/wife nalang ako, but habang lumalaki ang anak natin, mas marami tayong gastos para sa kanila.
Sayang di man lang ako nakapag say “hi” sayo last Saturday. Andun rin kami sa MBP Halloween Party eh.. 🙂
Yes correct ka dyam if puwede lang we can stay at home with our kids but we need to face the reality hindi kaya pag isa lang nag work. Mas malaki gastos if nag study na mahal toddler school.
Oo nga sayang I just met five mommy bloggers 🙂 maybe next time
Oo nga, I agree mahirap at talaga namang nakakapagod! Thanks for sharing your experience 🙂 Being a SAHM, though, I’m also curious about how your days are like when you’re working. What’s it like once you’re finally home? 🙂
Hi Vicky! its a never ending work for a working mom after office you need to attend all his needs when I got home the same time I need to check hubby and my family needs. But everything is worth it. You can check on some of my post what is life of a working mom thanks
I’m a full-time mom for 3 years now and you’re right when you said it’s not easy. “Me” time is necessary but oh-so elusive (well, in my case,haha!). And as others have said, being full-time mom is very fulfilling.:) Thank you for sharing.
It’s hard to fulfill different roles but working moms are so darn good – they’re blessings.
I choose to do DIY for my son’s costume if I can’t find one. I am a full time mom too and I do it everyday. I know it’s hard that is why I make sure to have a me time once a week.
