Our New Schedule

Well, I didn't post yesterday because by 8:30 last night, I was exhausted!  Dustin and I decided on a new schedule for the kids, bedtime is now 8:30 for them.  I am setting my alarm to get up at 7 am, before them and get a few things done-like my shower, laundry, dishes, my Bible study homework/Bible time, blogging, bills, anything I need to do but can't seem to do with the kids in tow.  It's been a nice change.  I've also been going to bed much earlier, which makes for a more pleasant day I think.  I feel much more rested.  I've had to let some things go to do this.  Sometimes the house is a mess when I go to bed, but it will be there in the morning for sure.  I'm trying to limit my computer time as well.  It's just hard to stop browsing the internet once I start at night.  The next thing I know, I'll have spent 2 hours reading blogs, researching stuff, etc.  I still hope to post almost every day, but some days it just may not happen.  :-( 
On a different note- Monday I took the kids to a playground and they had a blast!  Amanda and I decided to get our lunch to go and take them there since Joyce ended up not being able to meet us.  We actually got to talk and the kids worked off some energy.  Once it was time to go, we got little resistance and everyone was happy.  I think we'll definitely do that again. 
Well, I'm off to do more chores.  I have all the windows up, enjoying this fall air!!!  Carson is running errands with Papa, Emmy is drooling over an American Girl catalog...Henry's being patient as usual but I think he'd appreciate some baby food. 
More later.....
