6:00: I get the crazy idea to make some chocolate bread.

10:30: We finally get started on some school work.

Eli is happily playing with a ball popper.

11:00: Eli stuck a car in the ball popper and cant get it out.

I rescue the car, but he still isnt happy.

Clean up the messes Eli has made and get him a couple more marshmallows.

11:15: Start on lunch.

The girls put away school work, so they have room to eat since we only have 1 table.

Eli eats everything in sight; the girls complain they no longer like the chicken.

They eat it anyway otherwise they will not be getting their choice of snack later.

Everyone finishes eating and gets cleaned up for quiet time.

12:30: I read Eli some books, and put him in bed for a nap.

The girls choose some books, and lay down for at least 30 minutes.

The girls emerge and fold the towels I sorted this morning.

1:30: We have a quick activity to do before Eli wakes up!

We always take a stab at do anything he needs to stay out of during nap time.

Today isnt a big deal.

2:30: Eli is awake, and the girls are playing games on the iPad.

Eli tries to take over the iPad.

3:00: Snack time!

Today they want strawberries and graham crackers.

After eating and washing hands, they have free time until dinner.

3:30: I start thinking about dinner.

(I really am working on this meal planning thing, but I am not there yet.)

3:45: I realize we never emptied the dishwasher!

Since we went outside this morning instead of doing chores it just got neglected.

4:15: I start dinner while the kids all play.

5:10: The girls set the table.

Dinner is ready, but Daddy isnt home yet.

5:30: Daddy finally arrives, so it is time for dinner!

Everyone eats pretty well, so after dinner they watch a movie with Daddy while I clean things up.

7:00: Eli gets a bath and ready for bed.

7:30: Daddy gets girls into bath while I read to Eli and put him in bed.

Once he is in bed, I help them finish their bath and get ready for bed.

10:30: Cant concentrate anymore, so I head to bed!Thank you Ashley!
