The naps for the three mouseketeers were out of sync today but two of them did sleep simultaneously. More R - E - L - I - E - F. While Monte and Ja'el slept, we watched Moriah build some sort of machine with her blogs and listened as she described to us exactly how it works and how she came up with the idea using her imagination. That was really nice to see.
After their naps when everyone was awake we tuned into some internet old school "jams" and cranked up the external speakers on the computer. We remeinisced, laughed, and danced while we worked in the family room and kitchen. That was fun!
Then it was back to work, cleaning the tub, kids bath time, dryoffs, dressing in bed clothes, cleaning up toys AGAIN, bedtime routine, then our final Kiss, Hug, and Love (in that order) for the night. They wouldn't have it any other way.
The last load to wash for the night was the kids blankets for naptime at school. After that I could quickly toss them into the dryer, kiss the kids goodnight, go through my cooling down routine (More R - E - L - I - E - F) quietly drift off to sleep and wake up at 5:30 after having a full eight hours of sleep.

How in the world are you done with everything to go to bed at 9:30? What is your schedule? Cooking? Baths? Clothes? Do the children eat at school or do you prepare it for them to take? That's what adds time for us. Since Kendall doesn't go to a school and "J" takes his lunch, we're not only cooking dinner but preparing breakfast and lunch for her and him so it only has to be warmed up. I love the arrangement for her but I get really tired of preparing and having something for all those meals as well as clothes and milks/juice/water cups and snacks. I know... just complaining but how do you get it done? Do you ever have to do work at home?
