Routine

My kids live by routine, I know some people don't like this, I however love it. My kids are so used to routine now that they often remind me what time it is. I could almost tell you at any time during the day exactly what they will be doing. It is much easier to get them to do things because they already know it is coming. Matt has even got his own routine with the kids, one of which they all love. Ever since Chase was just a newborn bundle when Matt would get home from work he would take Chase in to change out of his work clothes with him. Chase would lay on the bed and watch. Now it is 3 years later and the routine is still in place, only thing that has changed is that now Sadi has gotten into it. They each help Daddy pull his shoes off....

And of course Matt makes them think they are so strong by cringing like his shoes are on so tight. And they each pull a sock off...and Matt says smell it...ewwwww!! They think it is funny and so they do it.

And of course the best part for Matt is, they put his shoes away in the closet, and his dirty clothes in the hamper. Anyone who has been to visit us knows how much my kids love this routine!!
