I have four kids (14,8,6 and 2 months) and you have such a great routine down I'm going to adapt it to my household. I don't feel like I get much of anything done with a new baby in the house. I was used to having the older kids entertain themselves while I cooked/cleaned/etc. I'm looking forward to establishing some order here! Thanks for this post.

I’m new to your blog and am very interested in your routine. I am pregnant with my fifth child: the others are aged 6, 5, 2, and 10 months. So my routine is pretty crammed and most days pretty stressful – but in a good way, I guess!

Wake before 6am (woken by baby and 5yo who always wake early)

Breakfast for those two, nappy change, drink lots of water. Start preparing lunches and uniforms.

Two other children wake up. Breakfast and nappy change.

Try to fit in my own breakfast.

Make coffee for husband and self. necessary for waking up.

Rush around finding things, packing bags, adjudicating arguments, rescuing baby, trying to be cheerful, continually reminding older children to get dressed.

Drive everyone to school for two older children drop-off. Reading at school. Drive home. Convince 2yo to get out of car.

Morning tea. Fruit and milo.

Minimum (and now also maximum) morning chores: put on load of washing, and wash dishes. Nothing more, nothing less. Baby naps less than an hour.

Lunch.

Read stories, play games, tidy up. Baby naps again, less than an hour.

School pick up.

Afternoon tea.

4pm: start dinner. If I don’t start this early, no matter what it is, dinner will be late. I expect constant interruptions and things to go wrong.

5:30pm dinner

6pm all children in the bath

6:30pm stories, pyjamas on

7pm bedtime (except for oldest child who does homework then goes to bed)

then husband and I clean kitchen, try to relax, I do work on computer, he does study.

On tuesdays, thursday and sundays: go to sister’s house nearby for exercise together.

Collapse into bed far too late, around 11pm.

I forgot to mention shower! That’s because I often miss out on one at the moment. Resorting to old-fashioned ways of personal hygiene, such as flannels… hmmm.

Sounds crazy. I guess it is, but life’s good!
