[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our weekend mornings at home are not pleasant but that’s largely because my DH and I are exhausted and don’t get up until 7/7:30 on weekends (as opposed to 6am on weekdays). At that point we have to take turns in the bathroom because both kids are up and that makes it take twice as long. What time do y’all wake up that you are out of the house by 8:45? We can barely get one child to a 10:30 activity by the time both adults have showered and we get the kids fed and dressed. [/quote]

Woah - I've gotten my 2, 4, and 5 year olds to my 5yos soccer game that started at 8am (worst idea ever) many times on my own.  If you're truly asking for tips
- shower night before
- pack snacks night before
- put kids clothes in common area (like breakfast area) if you have mutlifloor house the night before so everyone can get dressed without going back upstairs
- plan for breakfast that can be taken in car if needed

I'd think with two of you, you could fairly easily get up at 7 and make it out of the house by 8.  Each get 15min to get self ready while other is keeping the kid show moving[/quote]
