what is your morning routine?? do you have a schedule you follow?
our mornings are so crazy right now and i'm ready for a routine. hahaha. dh is self employed and i wake up early for work. sometimes its nearly impossible to have to wake up and leave by a certain time while dh is still sleeping!!
Re: Morning Routine
Now that it is summer, suring the week CJ will get up before me.... usually 4 or 4:30 then I am up between 4:30 or 5 get in the shower, by this time CJ is usually getting dressed then we make our lunches together and CJ will usually have time for breakfast but I pack mine and eat at my desk. Then I usually leave at 5:30 or 5:45.
On the weekends we usually are up between 6 and 6:30 and get all our house duties done early so we can enjoy the rest of the day. (i.e. pick up our BB... that is my favorite part )
M-F: Wake up at 5:30 with DH, chit chat til he leaves at 6:15, then I shower/get ready. Work 8-5. Home around 5:30, cook, clean, crash.
Weekend: Wake up 5:45, BB pick up at 7. Cooking/baking, cleaning/laundry, being lazy.
(Online) school and miscellaneous renovations occur daily, but always at different times.
Can't wait to meet my baby boy!
our routine normally is: m-f i wake up @ 4:30ish, turn on the news, make coffee, water the garden, get dressed, walk the dog, pack lunch and leave by 6. alex will wake up around 5:30ish before i leave and we'll talk a bit, watch the news, and if i'm not in a hurry have sex. haha. i work from 7-4. home by 4:30. work out til 5:30 then we will hang out, go to the dog park, visit family or friends, shop, whatever. go to bed by 11.
weekends we're up by 6:30 or 7. breakfast, get dressed, and on with our day!
Morning sex during the week is the BEST!!!! just saying!
I'm sooo not a morning person! DH gets up at 6 and leaves at 6:30, I don't hear him at all, until he gives me a kiss goodbye. I sleep until 6:30, 7:30 or 8:30 (depending on if I'm working from home or have meetings). I let the dog out, shower, get ready (hair, makeup, clothes), make sure the dog has gone to the bathroom, grab my lunchbag (with breakfast in it), put the dog away and I'm out the door. It takes me exactly 1 hour to do all of that. We make lunches the night before and I rarely vary from that schedule.
Of course all of that will change come November!
Honestly it depends what time I'm shooting to get into the office for meetings- but my routine doesn't change.
Wake up (time depends) but spend some time with DH, we always cuddle/talk and say a prayer together first thing in the morning to start our day off right. Then DH showers first (unless I'm looking to be in early) and then I shower- while I'm getting ready he makes our lunches. I have a pretty regimented skin care routine every other day is exfoliation day- ya...
Normally I just let my hair curl up naturally then I throw it into some kind of up-do for work, and go w/o make up- I so don't care anymore. Then I head in for a day in the office 9-12 hours normally depending on whats on my plate. Come home- DH normally has dinner started- we go to the gym, come home, go to bed
Best way to start your day! lol

Depending on what time I have to be at the shop, I wake up an hour before, throw some work clothes on, make my lunch and breakfast, then I am out the door.
When DH wakes up he lets the pups out and feeds them so I don't have to worry about it.

COFFEE! Usually around 6:30 or 7 I get up and start the coffee, then I head to little man's room to say good morning. By 7:30 I'm getting breakfast ready. 8:00 Kaylee usually wakes up and comes out to eat. Between 8-9 it's getting her ready for school and out the door. 9:30 time for Evan's nap. 10:00 I get to shower if I've already cleaned up breakfast dishes. 11:00 wake E up from his nap and then it's off to get sissy. Between 12-6 it's free time, the kids play while I do household chores, then I join them. 6:00 it's music time, I turn on the playlist and we just dance, sing, or even just listen depending on the mood. 6:30 dinner for the kiddos followed by bathtime. 7:30 Evan's bedtime. 8:00 dinner with the hubby (he gets home about this time). By 9 I'm watching T.V. or reading no matter what...this is my time and whatever else needs to be done can wait til tomorrow.
