Busy Family Schedule

I am quickly realizing that we have become a very busy family as the kids are getting older.  We don’t watch TV except on Sunday evening or sports on the weekends.  You can also see why I haven’t kept up with the blog or even photography.  Charlotte has decided that she is no longer interested in karate, so after this month she wants to go back to gymnastics.  We will have to figure out how to make another class work. 

I get home around 5:30 pm from work on most days.  Sometimes as early as 5 and sometimes as late as 6:30 pm.  After we ‘done’ with the scheduled part of our day Chris and I usually take time for ourselves and/or spend time with each other.  We are also fairly flexible, so if someone doesn’t feel like cooking the other will do it, or we go out to eat. Sometimes we swap sleep in days, or putting the kids to bed. We also go out and have guys’ night or girls’ night every couple of months, which could happen during the week.
