Our Daily Routine

Here is an example of what our schedule looks like. Each day is similar, but there are some differences. Tuesday we go to a play group instead of home blessing hour, Thursday we go to the library, etc. Don't look at this and think we follow the exact schedule every day. It might seem restricting, but it is your schedule. You can change it whenever and however you want!! But I have found that having a written plan that includes keeping the house clean, taking care of myself, feeding my family, and keeping Reina occupied has made our lives much more fulfilling. I'm due in a month to have our second baby, so at that point I'm sure most of this will go to pot for a while and then I will have to re-plan everything to fit the baby into our routine.

Some of the terms in this schedule come from flylady.net. Home blessing hour, the morning and evening routines, and zones are part of her system for keeping a clean and organized home. I may post in more detail about flylady later, but for now, I recommend you check it out!
