I'm sure everyone at home has a routine and if you mess with it, A LOT gets screwed up! For the past 4 years and I'm sure for the next handful of years we will be tied up with this routine that were in now. Little ones unfortunately don't look after themselves LOL. If one is left to deal with them, then there's resentment. I don't want that, so I try and work everything else around our current kids schedule, it is what is is and that's what was expected. We haven't been able to go to a lot of places cause A) it's hard to take them places and B) it's difficult to find a sitter and an overnight one, everyone has places to go and people to see.. It's busy! We recently have a few babysitters on the list that we can turn to...So for parents or future parents, they would tell you, they've been there and this is what to expect for future parents. You lose a lot of sleep and you must find a routine and stick to it otherwise things can fall off the rails! and you don't want that obviously. I have an incredible wife that is home right now, keeping order in a lot of departments.. I'm not very good in the kitchen or in laundry room, but I try and help out as best I can in other departments like bath time, now story time, etc etc...Sarah and I are a great team, at least I think and I'm always open to suggestions on how to make it work.
I thought maybe one day I will put all these notes together, like a journal for my kids to read one day and publish a book on real parenting, and what to expect. But for the most part, it's pretty much come natural for us with the budget we have top work with and I think we're doin a hell of a job. Love them to the moon and back and wouldn't have it any other way
Happy hump day
