How about a recap of a typical day in the E-man household?

We start with the alarm at 5:00, then eventually getting up between 5:15 and 5:30. A hectic morning rush of showers, clothes, bottles, diapers, breakfast and lunches, and then we’re out the door by 6:30. My wife drops me off at work, then the E-man at daycare, and by 7:15 she’s at work.

It’s 7:50 right now, and I’m doing odds and ends (ok, reading blogs and the news) before class starts at 8:30. Exciting, hunh? My wife is done at 3:00PM, and since the E-man has his 18-month checkup today (with shots!) she’ll pick him up and get to the doctor’s office by 3:15. I’m not too upset that I’m missing this appointment; I hate seeing him get his shots. At 5:20 she’ll pick me up and we’ll rush home to make dinner and spend some time with the baby before his bedtime at 7:00PM. Another hour or two, and then we’re off to bed as well.  Needless to say, we’re ready for the weekend by the time it comes!
