My Every Day.....Blessings....

WEll I wanted to share a bit of what I DO here with the boys :) Are you interested?~?~?

OK....

Sometime between 6:45 and 7:15 the boys wake up... J3 is always the first one up.....

I get them to the table and feed them breakfast.. Today was oatmeal, grapes and, sausage patties.... Sometimes I just do cereal..... THEY LOVE cinnamon and Sugar on their oatmeal.... and yes I cut the grapes up since it's like the number 1 choking hazard.....besides hotdogs...


Breakfast for me?!?!-- yeah right....
Jake is usually in bed through this whole ordeal...

They clear off the table and put their dishes in the sink. We go off to the the bathroom to brush their teeth.. Since the sink is tooo high even with the help of a stool I let them brush their teeth in the tub.. and then THEY clean it out :) ew... spit.

I get them dressed.. we usually have alot of whining going on , some book reading and playing with toys.... Occassionally Curious George on Tv too....

At 8:30 I take them to daycare.....

I then rest, shower, do laundry, whatever....

At 4:30 I pick the boys up and go back to the room. We talk, play and get ready for dinner. We then go to the dining hall for dinner. This is my least favorite part of the day..... We all clean up our tables after dinner and I make the boys pick up what they have thrown on the floor :)

Then it's outside for about an hour of playtime..... PLEASE NO RAIN ...PLEASE NO RAIN...


I start C2 in the bath around 6:30 and all baths are over aound 7:30.....

Snack time... usually fruit and crackers... jake does an awesome job of cutting up the fruits and getting everything ready....thanks babe. When he's not there .. Im like " have a graham craker".

then teeth time again.... and to BEd we go..... Sometimes I put in a movie but Im trying to wean them of that.. It's just what has been done for them FOREVER already... I try letting them take a book to bed with them... but then they throw them at each other... OOPS :)...
When jake is there he sits with C2 until he falls asleep.. When it's just me... I pick him up and put him to bed about 45 times ...

That's what SUPERNANNY does!!! :)Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Next week I start a class called positive parenting... it's on Thursdays... good thing that's my night off! well.. night until 8:30... But the boys will be in bed already!!! woohoo no bath time trauma!

Oh the boys LOVE lotion!!! I told them it helps them sleep better :) So they always want me to put it on them before bed.. so cute. they call it shampoo.

Rachel, I just loved reading about what you are doing. It really sounds so perfect for you. I could totally hear you with the "eat a graham cracker." and remembering that you never eat breakfast. I wish I could see you in action. You sound amazing. Have a splendid day. P.s. glad you found such a good fish!
