{She Said} A Good Evening Routine

We have fallen into a pretty good evening routine:

• after we get home sometimes a change of clothes for Zach is in order, sometimes he hasn't been quite so disgusting at school and he can keep going in the ones he has on
• we play for about an hour
• dinner for Zach is still a dish of baby food- usually something with meat. Then he gets to eat our cut up food or cheerios while we eat dinner. He has some water out of a sippy during dinner- he is getting quite good with that sippy. He also drinks well out of our cups.
• bath time or play time
• PJs and a bottle at around 7:30 and  then straight to bed

About once a week he comes home so tuckered out that he naps clear from right after we get home until bed time. And yes, he then just gets up for PJs and his bottle and goes right back down for the night. Sometimes I think its due to a growth spurt. Sometimes its just due to his very busy baby day. I'll allow it as long as he sleeps at night.

I love the routine, and my son thrives on it. Yep- that's my boy!
