Schedule and 100 Books!

First I'm going to tell you about my kids schedule. It's not set in stone and changes to suit our needs or temperaments for the day.

We usually wake up somewhere between 8 and 10. As soon as we wake up we change Jim's diaper(obviously), and Riley goes to the potty. We then eat breakfast, all together and in the kitchen. After breakfast varies between an hour of tv and the rest of the time spent playing, or we'll spend it all playing. Sometimes we'll go up to Sadie's house to play, it usually depends on Riley's temperament. We try to eat lunch around 11:45 and the kids go down for nap at noon. They tend to sleep until about 2. After that we have a small snack and play some more. On the days we go up to Sadie's we tend to stay up there most of the day. On days I go to work Steve works out the evening schedule on his own. But when I'm home we try to have dinner somewhere between 5:30 and 6. We'll have a small (I mean small) snack around 7:15. Then, it's bath time, story, and bed at 8. Once the kids go to bed, Steve and I will clean a little bit, and I'll usually knit while he plays a video game. Some nights we'll play a video game together or depending on if the neighbors are up for it we'll go next door and play Magic and Ashley and I will knit. It tends to get kind of crazy with all of us over at Ash's seeing as Ash and I have been friends since my fifth grade year and her and my husband went to high school together(in fact that's how we met). Then it's bed time for us, which this time varies greatly.
