Routines

So I have been looking at morning routines this week. Work had given me a few late nights and as a result my rhythm is all out of whack. Having a routine is important. It streamlines things and removes the stress of decisions before my brain has kicked in.

One of the favorite parts of my routine during the week is spending the morning with my kids. Specifically waiting on the bus with them. This morning I asked my youngest what I should write about as I talk about routines. She said I should share her routine. So here it is.

Princess Mini's Morning Routine

1. Wake up
2. Brush my teeth and wash my face
3. Change clothes
4. Wait for Daddy to make breakfast
5. Eat
6. Put my juice on my lunch
7. Wait for the bus with Daddy
8. Have a good day at school

While my order is a little different, I tend to eat after both kids are off to school, my routine is similar. I think that a routine helps keep things moving in the morning. _When we didn't have one there was a bit of chaos everyday. _

How has having a routine helped you? Do you have one?

Now if I could get Princess Mighty off of her phone she might help me with a post.
