With Jessie going to different hours and us getting into more stuff for Samantha, we have to re-think our schedule. I don't mind Samantha sleeping in until 10:00. In fact, I kind of like it, because it gives me time to clean up in the mornings and get her breakfast ready. And sometimes I like to get my baking done in the morning so I can do it alone. (Don't get me wrong. I Love for her to help, and I want her to learn from it. I want it to be a normal thing for her, so that when she gets older, cooking and baking from scratch will come natural to her, and she won't have to try to learn it after she has a family, like I am doing...but, sometimes that is my "Me Time." And especially when I am trying to make something for the first time, I like to try it alone.) ANYWAY, but I want her to see Jessie in the morning and we can all have breakfast together...but Jessie and Samantha aren't big breakfast people so I don't really see that happening. Maybe I will just use that morning time so me and Jessie can have time together. We don't get too much of that. I also am not sure about her bed time. Most of the time she sleeps with us, especially lately. She has been staying late with us and watching movies. I know she is just naturally a night owl, but I want to give her a bed time. Staying up until 2 in the morning is all good and fine to me every once in awhile, but we have been doing it every night, and I think that is part of what is making her grumpy. I was thinking 11:00 PM is a good time for her to lay down? I have everything else set out, what time she watches her show, her lesson, her outside activities for the week...As of right now, she will be doing Kindermusik on Mondays, Gym on Thursdays-I think that is what we decided. Jessie is going to go 3 days a week-Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday after work. We are only going to go 1 day because I am not much for working out. I will just swim or something so Samantha can get in some time around other kids for about an hour. They also have fun activities there, like Baby Yoga. (And then when she gets in school, that will basically be her "gym time.) She will also have church/church activities. I think that will keep her active enough without completely overwhelming her. Most days we are home all day anyway unless we have a play date or parent meeting, so I think it will be fine. Here is all out schedules. Any advice would be appreciated. (Sorry this is so long, I just really need help on how to balance everything out. I have it down in my head, but I am not sure how it will all fall in place.) (As far as the schedule I have written out for Jessie, I know school is only on there once. That is the day he HAS to sit down and do his work. Other than that, I don't care if he does it first thing in the morning, right before bed, or if he crams it all in in 1 day. So that is just on there as a reminder.) Sorry, the schedules reformatted. These are the copies I have for my Home Management Binder, and they are just drafts. Also, just a note, we are having "Four Day Weeks" now since Jessie won't have Saturdays off and I will be with my Mom. So Saturday, Sunday, and Monday (since Jessie is off Monday) will be our weekends, which means no strict schedule for Samantha-Anne.
