Same Old, Same Old....

Why is it we can never eat dinner at a decent time on the weekends? I am really working on getting the kids to bed earlier. I want to start getting them up earlier as they have been sleeping until 9:30 on most mornings. Sure, it sounds great. Leaves me lots of time to be with just me in the mornings but it also cuts into our day. My kids wake up slow, especially Rebecca. So, when she does not get up until 9:30 (sometimes as late as 10:00), she ends up wanting breakfast around 11:00. Well, the pribelm you say is it is almost lunch time. Zachary usually wakes up before her. He takes a nap by 1:00. Our day is just gone before we even got to get it started. Anyway, back to the weekends. Jim cooks on the weekends. He spends all day sometimes, hounding me as to what he should cook. I do not want to have to decide. That is what I do five other days of the week and it is nice to be able to have two off. Don't ask me what I want you to cook! Then he figures it out (or on the rare occasion already has an idea) yet he still never seems to start cooking until at least 6:00 putting dinner lots of times around 7:00. I want to eat early on the weekends so I feel like I have some time left to my day. Plus ECI comes on Monday so I like to have the kids to bed at a time that still leaves me time to clean up.
Uugghh!!!
