Routines

We are finally getting into some new routines around here.... with my job I need to have a solid routine in the morning and at night with these girls... Our mornings (most of the time) are awake and out of bed at or around 6am.. up to pee, take a shower (just Mommy), get dressed, put on shoes and jackets, grab what we need for the day... head out the door, get in the car to get to Daycare by 8am at the latest.. then taking the train and getting to work by 8:30am..

At night we drink our nightime Apple Juice (laced with Melatonin - dr approved), then put on our Jammies, brush teeth, read a story and then go to bed hopefully no later than 8pm or 8:30pm.

Then there are the routines of things that come up on our calendar that can wreck havoc with the above. Once a month we go to the Library on a Monday night to sing songs with Mother Goose.. the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month we just resumed the Kid Grief group that we attend. On other Wed nights we go to Knitting Group though lately I've had a pair of sitters coming by to watch the girls for me so I can go out by myself... and have 2 hours to myself. We just added Dance Class (Ballet and Tap) on Saturday mornings for the girls.

Somehow I still haven't figured out how to get back to Running Club on Tuesdays, Scrapbooking on Fridays (once a month) or Twin Mom Club (4th Tuesday of the month). Eventually I'll do a few of these again.. I just need time to figure it out..
