Good luck with your routine! My biggest challenge with my schedule is to actually wake up the children in the morning. I always think, I can do one more thing...
When is your little one due?
Sorry! I should have looked at your little chart ;-)
I like your schedule! I am a at home mom of 6. I found that if I check my email or use the computer during my little breaks it ate up time that I could have been doing something more valuable. Things are no better than they were when the computer was only available to me one time a day after the kids were in bed.
God bless you and your children!
You get to sleep until 7:30??? Must be nice.
