The Morning Routine With Boy Wonder

So what does a normal day look like at our house? Well in terms of boy 1, our 3-year old, it is very routine.

Here is a look at how our weekday mornings go.

6:30am: Dad’s alarm goes off. Now this can go a few ways. First, kid’s light is already on and he has been reading since 5am.

Second, kid is already in room looking at me in the dark waiting for alarm.

Third, kid has already woken us all up to say he has to pee or wants to get into bed.

6:33: Dad has a shower. I go and do my thing, shower, shave and get dressed. Kid has either stayed in his own bed reading, still sleeping or stays in our bed and keeps mom awake. Keep in mind, the 2-month old rarely wakes up.

6:40: Shower and dressed: If kid is not up, I go and wake him up and start the slow process of peeling him out of bed. Some mornings it is like trying to get a teen out of bed. If he is awake and reading already, he shoots out of bed to start the day. If he is in our bed, well I get him out of mom’s hair so she can go back to sleep.

6:45: Change the night-time underwear for fresh and we head downstairs for breakfast.

6:50: Feeding the farm. Before I do anything, I need to feed the cat and dog. Otherwise they are pretty annoying. Kid usually is okay with this and goes and reads or plays.
