We have been doing so well on our new schedule! I am so proud of the girls and myself for sticking to it and making it work. My life is getting a little easier each day that goes by since the girls are so much more predictable (due to following this schedule) and therefore I know when I will have time to get things done or take a much needed nap! Certain days, such as Fridays, when we have softball games in the evening for the next few months (some are pretty late at night), I will do things a little differently with their naps, so that they can stay up a little longer, but I plan to bring their pj's with me and have then ready to be placed right in their cribs upon returning home.
But this is what we have been up to the past few weeks and it's really beginning to make order in our house!
