Re: Kids and Dinner Poll:

  • 1.  Do you eat dinner with your DC? We try to, when she can hold out (This is a new thing). Sometimes she needs a snack beforehand.


    If you do, what time do you eat?  5:30 or earlier on weekends.


    If you don't, what time does DC eat and what time do you and DH eat?  Sometimes she eats earlier. We are monsters if we don't eat by 5:30.

    2. How old is your DC? 21 mos

    3. Who cooks?  DH almost always. He is home before me.

  • 1.  Do you eat dinner with your DC? We try to at least twice a week. 

    If you do, what time do you eat? 
    If you don't, what time does DC eat and what time do you and DH eat?  DD eats at 5:30, we eat at 7:30

    2. How old is your DC? 18 months

    3. Who cooks?  9 times out of 10 I cook for DD, and we're pretty 50/50 on who cooks for us.

  • Not sure we really count but want to do the poll anyway. 

    1.  Do you eat dinner with your DC?  Sort of

    If you do, what time do you eat? 7ish

    If you don't, what time does DC eat and what time do you and DH eat?  Often she has a bottle and some food a little earlier, but she sits in her highchair at the table while we eat.  Right after, she goes to bed.

    2. How old is your DC? 6 months

    3. Who cooks?  Usually me.  DH often helps if he's home in time.

  • 1.  Do you eat dinner with your DC?  I do every night.

    If you do, what time do you eat? 5pm (SO early!!)

    If you don't, what time does DC eat and what time do you and DH eat?  DH eats when he gets home from work - varies on the time.

    2. How old is your DC? almost 16 mo.

    3. Who cooks?  Usually me. 

  • 1.  Not usually, but I'm trying to do so on the weekends now.

      DS eats dinner around 5:30-6 & goes to bed before I get home from work.  DH & I eat when I get home, which is typically anywhere between 8 & 9.

    2.  10.5 months

    3.  DH with occasional help from me (I'm usually the breakfast/lunch chef though!)

  • 1.  Do you eat dinner with your DC?  Yes we do.

    If you do, what time do you eat?  depends on my DH's work schedule anywhere from 5:30-6:30
    If you don't, what time does DC eat and what time do you and DH eat? 

    2. How old is your DC? 19 months

    3. Who cooks?  It depends on who is home from work first.
