Our Day

Have you wondered lately what we're up to.... I wonder the same thing.

Here is the daily run:

6 am Jeff and Ann Wake up/ Get dressed / Jeff makes breakfast and Lunches
6:15 Wake up kids/ breakfast/ Ann finishes getting ready
6:25 Ann eats breakfast with Jeff and kids get dressed
6:30 Gather everything up and get ready to go
6:40 Leave the house to catch a bus coming in 7 minutes.
7:05 A SUPER SWEET bus driver volunteered to pick us up... off rout and take us to her starting point (the daycare) Giving us 5-8 minutes to drop of the kids and catch her route heading to campus.
7:30 Jeff and Ann on campus....cracking out the books.
.
.
12-noon Jeff and I meet for Lunch
.
.
.
4:30 Jeff and I regroup and head back towards the daycare. Ehre hates leaving and Ben is more than happy to leave...so our hands are full, "dragging" Ehre out, and Ben "hugging tight", refusing to be set down. :)
5:20 we catch the bus home from school....JAMMED PACKED with students, who like us refuse to pay high gas/parking prices.
6:00 Dinner/ Play time/ Music Time
7:30 Kids bedtime
10:30 Parents go to sleep.


So that's what we do, we study, sleep, and go to class and with all the extra time we make the most with our kid time. Yeah busing takes longer, but we do it as a family making it a lot of fun...it would be better if they would allocate a few more buses for student use, since sitting with 60 students on a small buss isn't very comfortable, but hey why am I complaining, its a free ride. :)

Hey Ann, I hope you are doing all right! I can just imagine your stress with the laod you guys are going to have for the next little while! Thanks so much for taking care of Miles for me those few days! You don't know how much it meant to me! You're the best!

You have everything planned so well! I love schedules and wish we could be better about keeping them. Little Lilly always seems to mess up our day--weird sleeping habits. Anyway, I love to know what comes next.

It sounds like you are doing really great! What preschool are the kids going to? I'm still thinking of sending Eldon to a preschool next year and am taking inventory:).

Anyway, keep up the good work! When you have so many things going on, I really do think organization is the key.
