    I'm a STHM, well aunt. I have custody of my niece and 2 nephews so I need to be at home for them. The boys have special needs so my job is here. I used to work in a supermarket but went on leave to take care of my mum who had breast cancer. Once she was over that I went back to work but not long after she was diagnosed with Dementia and Alzheimer's so I went on leave again. As my mothers condition got worse she was unable to keep the grand kids and they wanted to live with me so here they are

    Great idea. I love hearing about how everyone spends their days.

    I'm a SAHM and I work two days a week as a RN in an emergency department. I love both my jobs

    I was SAHM for the first 2 years with my DD#1 and then I had to find a job because DH's salary wasn't enough to support the family. Even with my salary we are hardly making the ends meet
    My DH makes pretty good money but it's so expensive in the bay area and we are pretty cash poor. really sad. I've been both a working mom and a sahm throughout my life and a going to school mom. My DH was a sahd for a while in there too. Great babysitter, crappy housekeeper. Hmmmm, I guess i can't say much as i look around at the mess.

Before having DD I worked in my salon more and on the runway and in fashion shoots so I still have a pretty good rep. But my main priority is DD. I am not away from her hardly ever. I gave up my career to to be a mama! This is what I want!

    So our days are spent hanging out by the pool, playing outside in the sandbox. Doing art projects. Reading, coloring, baking, Going to her cousins house and playing over there. Going to the park around the corner. Sometimes we will snuggle on the couch and watch a movie! my fav, break time!! Anything to stay active! We have a lot of fun me and my girl!
    Hmmm, maybe I can come over for a little make-over for DH's b-day in July and take him out on the town. Hmmmm let's pm cost.

    TTC what about you, didn't you recently take a part time position?
    Yep! I work as a teachers aide with children with special needs and disabilities. I also run my own online business selling childrens wear

    DH recently left work to study. We are not big income earners but we are happy and cosy
    Fathers Day baby!

    I'm like this too. But I really love being a nurse and it fits in well with DH's hours so I am fortunate enough to be able to do both.
