[quote=Anonymous]We had staggered work schedules when our kids were very young, so I'd get home with them around 4:30, relax and play for a bit, then take quick baths and into jammies. Dinner was no later than 5:30 pm, and was almost always some sort of leftover protein or scrambled eggs, a veggie, a fruit, and a serving of dairy like cheese or yogurt. Super easy, almost no prep. DH would get home by 6, help with cleanup and bedtime, kids asleep by 7, and then we'd cook dinner together and eat by 7:30. As our kids got older and bedtime got later, kids could play independently while I made dinner for all of us. Then once DH was home we'd tag team bath, bedtime, cleanup, and next-day prep. Usually done and ready to flop on the couch no later than 8:30. [/quote]
