"Experts" recommend a quiet activity before bedtime for a sound night's rest. Yeah...ok. Am I the only momma out there who absolutely freaking dreads bedtime? In the social media world, bedtime often means we mommas get to stop for a moment, sip a glass of wine and get stuff done. And on the rare nights that actually happens here in our house, I definitely document it. However, it is such a rarity, because of this. Three little monkeys bouncing off the walls and going 110% ape shit. I'm serious. 7:00 hits and all of a sudden it's like somebody loaded them up on Red Bull. They start running, yelling, acting insane and my voice goes in one ear and out of the other. It's enough to make one insane and some nights I feel like I'm there! That being said, we are only on week two of a new routine that goes like this: 7:00 - All screens off (TV screens, tablet screens, phone screens) 7:00-7:30 - Play Time, Books, Art, Board Game (Quiet Activity) 7:30 - B
A constant balancing act between mom and career life!
