Christina's new normal..
okay so here is my daily schedule..its just nice to have it down somewhere!
this is when school will start on august 28th..
7am-caretaker amanda arrives and gets to work with jon
730am me and the girls wake and get ready for the day
745am we start breakfast and read scriptures
8am we have family prayer and out the door the girls go!
8-9am i hang with becca and do emails/blog
9am take anna to preschool on tuesdays and thursdays
9am-12pm i clean whole upstairs on tuesdays/whole downstairs on thursdays
10am-amanda leaves and jon is ready for the day and over to his laptop
12pm lunch for family/hand with becca and anna/emails/blog
1pm becca down for nap
1-3pm "project time" or errand(i clean out a closet or drawers or garage,etc)
3pm big girls get home and get snack and start homework
4pm finish homework/give jon meds/wake up becca
5pm start making dinner
6pm family eats dinner
630 family clears table, mom rinses dishes, big girls load and unload
7pm buddy system (big girls take younger girls to bath, jammies on, teeth brushed) mommy sweeps the floor and picks up a bit from the day
730pm monday fhe
8pm family reading time (their favorite books)
815pm family prayer/bedtime
830pm emails/blog
9pm transfer jon into bed
10pm go to bed - HOPEFULLY!!
i find that when i write it all down like this and tell the girls..they know what to expect and it seems to run SOO much smoother- cuz they look a the clock and go - oh ya its 6pm that means we have to eat, or its 8pm that means reading time etc...

I like that...I need to set up something like that for the boys...Aaron does better if he knows what's coming next. Have you ever checked out Flylady.net? She is real good about organization. I started doing it a few years back and got obsessed... but it did help when all of the kids were at home. Now that there are only two at home... things aren't so chaotic, but since school is starting for all of us (I'm going back to college), I really need to get a routine down. You are so inspiring...keep up the good work.
i wish i could be so organized!!! once again you inspire me to get on the ball and be better!
girl, you are amazing. I wish I was half as organized as you are.
