8 Month Schedule

I wrote this on 11-5-08 but never posted it on my blog.  Since I want to remember what life was like with young ones, I decided to keep the post.

8 Month Schedule

Since time is going by so quickly, and the boys are changing so rapidly, I thought I'd capture a typical day at 8 months.

6:00am- The boys wake up, drink their bottles, and then play with Daddy.

7:00am- Daddy gets ready for work and I take over... I'm 'off' from 6:00am- 7:00am. Believe me, there is a HUGE difference between being 'on' 23 hours a day, compared to 24!!! :-).

7:15am- Breakfast... Oatmeal and Fruit

7:45am- Start the 'Big Boy' baths, while the other two play.

8:30am- Baby Einstein Video

9:00am- First nap

10:30am- Start waking up from naps

10:45am- Bottle

11:00am- Play, Play, Play. This looks much different than even a month ago... They are mobile now!!! All three of them can sit, Liam and Aidan unassisted. All three of them can get from one point to another, by whatever means possible (squirming, doing the army crawl, diving, scooting, etc.). Since the sitting and mobile thing is still pretty new to them, there is a lot of tipping and bumping, but for the most part they are doing really well.

1:00pm- Down for their second nap.

2:30pm- Start waking up from naps.

2:45pm- Bottles

3:15, or whenever the last baby finishes... Leave the house for the first time!!! What are we going to do when the weather turns??? If we don't find something to do, it might be a loooong winter!!!When we get back, we play until it is time for our nigh time routine to start.

6:15- Start nighttime routine... Bottles, strip down to diapers, eat dinner (rice and a variety of vegetables), get dressed in pjs, play until sleepiness starts.

7:30- Off to dreamland
