Did I pick the right activity level?

I just read a post about how a lot of us pick the wrong activity level, like those who have a desk job but then get home to young kids (me!).
So I chose sedentary, I have a desk job. I literally don't have to get up but like 5 times a day and only to a few cubicles away.
I get two 15 minute breaks in which I take a walk ( I log it)
I get up to use the bathroom a lot because of all the water I drink. But the bathroom is close.
So anway, I pick up my kids from grandmas house, cook, feed them, bathe them, wash dishes. And excercise (I log it.) And I eat back ALL my excersice calories. I really really try to target 1,200 a day.
