[quote=Anonymous]We have a K and a 2yo.

Night before:

Kids pick out their own clothes and lay them out.  Lunches are made and each container is labeled so I can easily put them in their bags in the morning.  Backpacks are packed with anything we need to take to school, except a show and share item for the 2 yo, when that is needed.  Kids head to bed at the same time every evening.

Morning:

6:00 - DH and I get up and start getting ready.
6:15 - I wake up the 2 yo and change her diaper.  Then we get the K and head downstairs for breakfast/coffee.
6:45  - We head back upstairs to get dressed and brush teeth.
7:00 - My goal is to have them back downstairs by this point so I can do anything else I need to do to get ready.  Gives me a buffer for days when the 2 yo is having meltdown after meltdown.  We allow tv from time they are completely ready - hair brushed, socks and shoes located and on until the show ends.
7:20 - I put the ice packs and lunch containers in the lunch bags and pour my coffee to go.
7:26 - Their tv show ends and we put on jackets, etc. 
7:30 - we head to the car so we can drop the K off at the bus stop.  The bus comes at 7:41.[/quote]
