15 months daily routine
Back when the girls were brand new little newborns I posted about there daily schedule, it looked something like this
Feed 1.5 hrs
Play .5 hrs
Sleep 1 hr
Repeat
All day, and at night the sleep increased to 2.5 hrs with no play time.
(see the post here)
I can confidently say I am glad we are past that time.
We have perfected the older baby schedule, from about 10 months until recently, that includes two naps a day.
The day looks like this,
6:00 wake up, milk
7:00 breakfast -fruit, cheese, Cheerios or pumpkin pancakes
8:30 milk
9:00 nap
10:30 wake up, snack – sautéed veggies and a protein.
Get going to do something- park, music class, story time, play date, catch air
12 Lunch – fruit, veggie, pasta, protein.
More playtime
2:00 milk
2:30 nap
4:00 wake up, snack – yogurt, fruit
Playtime
6:30 Dinner (current favorite – corn on the cob)
7:00 bath
7:30 milk
8:00 bedtime
At 15 months old the girls are slowly transitioning to just one nap a day.
That day looks like this,
6:30 wake up, milk
7:00 breakfast
9:00 snack
Get going to do something- park, music class, story time, play date, catch air
11:30 Lunch – fruit, veggie, pasta, protein.
More playtime
12:00 milk
12:30 nap
3:30 wake up, snack – yogurt, fruit
Playtime
5:30 snack
6:30 Dinner (current favorite – corn on the cob)
7:00 bath
7:30 milk
8:00 bedtime
Some days are tricky with the one nap a day schedule, bored babies get cranky quickly so activities have to we’ll planned and timed.
But because the girls are much more mobile now there are several great places to take them to play not far from home.
In another few weeks I think the girls will be ready to have one nap a day on a regular basis and if they need a snooze later in the day maybe they will learn to lay down on the couch and go to sleep? Does that even happen?
