I took a picture of the boys brushing their teeth yesterday morning, but I didn't upload it to my PC. And last night after the boys went to bed, I crashed. If I remember, I'll try to add the picture tonight. I'm really feeling the pinch of time when we get home from work. It seems like there's NO time to play, relax, chill. It's make dinner immediately, do William's nebulizer, eat, bath, bed. We've been skipping bath more and more, just to eke out the extra time. But bath time is play time for them, so don't know if that's such a great idea. Can we start a movement for a 6-hour work day?
ETA: Here's the picture. It's a terrible shot, taken on the fly, knowing I needed something to post for the day. But it captures a moment of our lives, so I'll post it anyway.
Dinner:
Tacos
Seth ate a soft taco with cheese and lettuce. William ate about half of a soft tortilla, string cheese, and grapes. Seth ate most of his at 6:45. William waited until Ed came home, and we all sat at the table at 7:10. Seth ate more of his taco, and some plain tortilla.

Kids don't need baths every day until they get older or if they're visibly dirty. That's my philosophy! And the time issue is why my kids typically get baths only 3-4 nights per week.
We do a bath everyday once Ben is outside daily (spring/summer) but with winter and so many days inside I call it at every other day. I trade off and let him have extra playtime or an extra book, his choice and he hates giving up the bath.
We're on the every other day system--unless there's lots of messy food or sweating.
Will the time change help? Hurt? It's more daylight, right?
