Someone was asking about a typical weekday on a message board I'm a part of. Because I'd already typed it all up, I thought it would be interesting to copy and paste it here, just to remember what the routine was at this point in our life.
6:00: DH gets up and in the shower
6:20: I get up and in the shower while DH packs lunches and gets DD's toast ready
6:35: DH gets DD up and fed while I'm getting ready
6:55: We tag-team getting her dressed while scarfing our own toast
7:10: Out the door to head to the sitter's
7:40: Arrive at sitter and drop DD off. Leave for work.
8:00: Arrive at work (DH and I carpool)
4:30: Leave work.
4:50: Arrive at sitter. Drive home.
5:30: Arrive home. Begin cooking dinner immediately while DH plays with DD. If dinner is something that I put together and then it cooks on its own for awhile, I'll either clean up the kitchen or we might all take a quick walk.
6:15: Eat dinner
6:45: Clean up from dinner and maybe play with DD
7:00: Start DD's bedtime--she watches Special Agent Oso every night to wind down
7:30: DH takes DD upstairs to brush teeth. I get 3 minutes alone.
7:33: "Mommy, I'm ready for you!!" I wait a couple more minutes.
7:45: "Mommmmmmyyyyyyy....." I head upstairs. I read DD a few books, we pray, we sing songs, I put her to bed.
8:15: I head downstairs. Clean up from dinner, load lunch dishes into dishwasher.
8:45: Sit down and catch up on DVRed shows, email, etc.
10:00: Bedtime
We’re not going anywhere.
