[quote=Anonymous]This will sound weird but I'd take data this week and figure out where your problem(s) actually is. Write down when you wake up, when each kid wakes up, how long your personal routine takes, how long breakfast takes, what was eaten, what specifically you yelled about, when you get out the door, etc. I found a lot of inconsistency in my own habits when I did this. The more you know how long each piece truly takes rather than what you think it "should" take, the easier it is to tackle the real issues. Do anything that can be done at night at night. My husband's not home mornings either. We actually pack breakfast in a lunchbox but it gets eaten at the table, allowing independence. I know what time I have to be in/out of the shower for the whole thing to work.[/quote]
