I wake up at 6am and get a shower and all my getting-ready stuff in before my daughter wakes up at 7 or 7:30 (this really happens sometimes on weekends!!) We eat breakfast and then head off to Marbles museum for some play time around 9:30. We stay until 11:30 and then walk to a local restaurant for lunch. We eat a quick lunch out (no dilly-dallying with a toddler) and then head home for naptime! In the afternoon, I get to relax on the couch and catch up on the latest GoT book I'm reading. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1395732 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 14:01:35 +0000 snowjewelz 1395732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would sweat it out at the gym, then meet DH at a cute brunch spot where we can eat, hang out, people watch. Then we would take a nice stroll at the farmer's market. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1395706 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 13:52:43 +0000 Arden 1395706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No alarm.

Hehe. Just imagine it folded over and filled with fruit. *leaves work early to indulge* </p> [attach=3563/14/n0fo2c.264x191.ee.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394735 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 09:11:50 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1394735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd get up, shower, and then take a novel and a journal to a coffee shop, and drink endless cups of coffee, eat pastries and read and write to my heart's content. Or until I needed to go home and feed LO, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394730 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 09:06:38 +0000 808love 1394730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My absolute ideal would be waking up to a clean house, going for a morning swim or surf session and then out to breakfast with DH and LO. Yesterday was pretty close to perfect in a real world sense. It was impromptu, which I love to be when my energy is high. I told DH since he can sleep in, he needs to clean the house while I am out with LO. Then I grabbed take out and took her on a long beautiful drive to an awesome playground she loved. I watched her chase ducks, make friends and test new physical skills. Being up and outdoors with the early risers is quite fun for me. I am usually stuck in the house in the routine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394656 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 08:29:03 +0000 Mae 1394656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dunno if I'm just weird or if no one else wants to be the first to say it-- so I will lol. </p> <p>No alarm. Sex. Run to Tim Hortons for breakfast (including donut and larrrge coffee), and snuggle into the couch together under blankets to eat our junk food and watch a movie. I'm a simple girl lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394593 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 07:28:01 +0000 looch 1394593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My perfect morning is one during the week, where I can let my son wake up naturally to get him off to begin his day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394587 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 07:24:57 +0000 mrs. 64 1394587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any morning where I don't have to go to work is the perfect morning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394572 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 07:04:19 +0000 honeybear 1394572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd wake up to a perfectly clean and orderly house! (This alone would be ideal, but I have an active imagination, so let's continue, shall we? ;) ) My husband would have already made the coffee (he's superb at it!), so I would pour some in a lidded cup, grab my keys and bag and we'd all get into the car (someone else handled waking up LO and dressing him), and we'd drive to the beach where the local park would be open just for us. We all watch sunrise on the beach, see a few dolphins frolicking in the surf, then we go for a long walk down the beach, followed by fresh chocolate croissants, fruit, and cappuccinos.</p> <p>I need to make this morning happen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394545 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 04:53:34 +0000 Cherrybee 1394545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm.... no sleeping in, you say? </p> <p>Okay, well it starts with DH feeding E her porridge, though, and making coffee while I shower. Then maybe we'd all go out for breakfast. E would be in a good mood and there would be lots of smiling and laughing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394533 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:28:04 +0000 lovehoneybee 1394533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does it count if I say "D gets up with the baby" instead of "sleeping in"? </p> <p>My current ideal morning is him taking first shift, starting the coffee and a pan of grit and waking me when it's all ready, and then having breakfast with my husband and a happy toddler.</p> <p>5 years ago my ideal morning involved black and blue crepes from this great place in Philly. D and I would walk up there, have brunch and then pop into a local pet store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394531 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:19:38 +0000 mrbee 1394531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@indi: I will have to check me out some elephant ears! Sounds delicious... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394530 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:18:46 +0000 mrbee 1394530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Actually you make a great point... you get really good at tossing things while you're a paperboy! Unfortunately it's not really a marketable skill... but even today I can toss a diaper and hit the trashcan a good percentage of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394528 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:15:05 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1394528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I guess cuz I watched too much old school TV with paperboys in them so I always thought it'd be fun… waking up before the world wakes up, riding your bike through the neighborhood, and tossing the paper so that it lands perfectly in front of someone's doorstep! And perhaps getting a chance to know your neighbors while you're at it~ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394525 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:08:46 +0000 indi 1394525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Oooh, that's a toughy, because I used to hate ALL pastries after working in a bakery for 2 years (the first time I'd ever been to one, too, so I was ruined right away). </p> <p>But now I love these raspberry and cream cheese filled crispies (we call them elephant ears, but these are folded over and filled). Awful for you, but so darn good. After that, any caramel apple pastry or custard filled and chocolate covered doughnuts are close seconds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394523 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:02:04 +0000 mrbee 1394523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: I sometimes feel like being a paperboy is what got me into media... and eventually, blogging!</p> <p>As for being a paper-person, it is an immensely boring job... plus you have to wake up at 4 or 5 am. I don't miss it!! The one part that was neat was feeling like you were reading the news before everyone else... but now with the internet, it's not quite the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394522 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:01:16 +0000 mrbee 1394522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@indi: what's your perfect pastry? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394521 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:00:28 +0000 indi 1394521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You took away my favorite option, I love sleeping in. ;-) </p> <p>So, after waking up to a nice leg massage from DH, I'd want to take a long shower, go for a walk outside on a nice morning, head to the bakery for a pastry and hot chocolate date with him, and then hit a few little local shops to browse. Once LO arrives, insert baby snuggles and baby wearing on our walk into there, too. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394520 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:00:20 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1394520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: that is what premade, store bought crust is for. :grin: </p> <p>Haha that's awesome that you were a paperboy! I used to want to be one! Papergirl I mean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/describe-your-perfect-morning-1#post-1394517 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 01:57:02 +0000 mrbee 1394517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Well they say your self-esteem and beliefs are often set at puberty... and when I hit puberty, there was no such things as the Internet! Plus I was a paperboy... so I have a childhood allegiance to print.</p> <p>Quiche is easy to make? I always figured that anything with a crust is hard to make... </p>
