So I'm going to enjoy this while I can! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-first-5-things-you-do-in-the-morning#post-91078 Fri, 09 Mar 2012 23:35:31 +0000 StbHisMrs 91078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1) pee<br /> 2) take my makeup off (really should do this at night...too tired!!<br /> 3) shower<br /> 4) get dressed<br /> 5) put my makeup on</p> <p>Usually LO wakes up at 4:45 and I give her bottle and change her, I fall back asleep when she does until 6am. I'd really like to stay up and get my workout in, but sadly that never happens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-first-5-things-you-do-in-the-morning#post-91045 Fri, 09 Mar 2012 21:47:55 +0000 BSB 91045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1.

If she's up early (like before 7) my husband gets her. So my 5 things are:<br /> 1: Hubby brings LO to me and wakes me up- we sit on the bed and watch hubby get ready.<br /> 2. Put LO in the bouncer.<br /> 3. Get dressed, teeth brushed, etc.<br /> 4. If it's diaper washing day put the diapers in the washer. If not, eat breakfast.<br /> 5. Depends- some sort of playing with LO.</p> <p>If she wakes up after 7:<br /> 1. Go get LO and change her diaper and get her dressed<br /> 2. Give LO a bottle<br /> 3. Put LO in the bouncer so I can get ready.... and then we continue with the above steps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-first-5-things-you-do-in-the-morning#post-86843 Mon, 05 Mar 2012 10:11:58 +0000 chopsuey 86843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When DH is out of town:<br /> 1. Try to nurse LO<br /> 2. Pee<br /> 3. Drink water<br /> 4. Look at my phone -- emails and texts<br /> 5. Change LO's diaper</p> <p>When he's home<br /> pretty much the same, except I'll bring her into our room before doing 2-5. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-first-5-things-you-do-in-the-morning#post-86839 Mon, 05 Mar 2012 10:09:19 +0000 Rubies 86839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wake up when LO wakes up so the first 5 things I do the second my eyes open are:<br /> 1) Go pee<br /> 2) Go to LO's room and feed her and change her diaper<br /> 3) Bring her out to the living room and put her in her exersaucer<br /> 4) Check my email and Hellobee<br /> 5) Brush my teeth</p> <p>Every day, without fail. </p>
