Wake at nine, eat at 10, go to a music class or playdate. If none scheduled, sit on couch like blobs. Lunch at 1:30. Nap at 2. Dinner at 7. Nothing interesting in between. Yeah, my life is depressing.
We wake up 9to10am Make breakfast Play with toys Maybe watch some kinda cartoon Disney or PBS 10amto11am Bathe and get dressed Go for a walk or even the park 12pm to 1pm Lunch Play with toys Maybe another cartoon program or movie Maybe a craft Possibly run errands 6pmto7pm Make dinner and have dinner Play with toys Get ready for bed Wind down 10pm Then off to bed
This is just a basic example everyday is not the same lol
We have a general pattern to our days. It's tough because DD2's schedule is still very variable, but she's getting there.
I try to take the girls out of the house 2-3 mornings a week. DD2 is starting to take her nap at 10:30ish, right when we usually go out to play group, so that is throwing a wrench in things.
Afternoons are pretty consistent. Lunch at home around 1. Head upstairs to play with toys. The girls both settle down for naps between 2:30 and 3:30, which has been a delightful break for me. They wake up around 5:30.
Nights DH has class 3x a week. He leaves while the girls are napping and doesn't get home till 8:30 or 9. Dinnertime is usually around 7 whether he's here or not.
After dinner, playroom time until DD2 gets tired around 8 or 8:30. I put her to bed while DD1 watches a show.
DH, DD1 and I go up to our room around 9 or 9:30. We read and settle down. When DD1 is ready for bed, we tuck her in in her bed.
Both kids are usually up before 7:00, but lately it's been after 8:00 because they have been sick and not sleeping well.
We are generally out of the house 3-4 mornings a week, so it's hard to do any schedule. We used to have a "stay home" schedule, but we rarely stay home anymore.
If we ARE at home, we do snack/lunch around 10:30, nap 11:00-2:00 (or something around that timeframe). Before nap, he plays with his toys or sometimes we watch tv. After nap, there is usually a snack, sometimes tv, and more playing.
If we go out for the morning or day, I try to be home by 11:30 or noon, eat lunch, then put them down for naps. If we will be out longer, we eat lunch before we get home and he goes straight to bed when we get home.
Dinner is usually at 5:30 or 6:00, then some play time before he gets his pjs on at 7:30. Then DH reads to him and I put him to bed at 8:00.
