This just popped into my head after seeing my son in a surprise visit at work today. I never used to think this way but the older I get the more I believe we are meant to have some sort of routine in our lives.
As soon as my wife and I established a routine for my son, he has become much happier. Naps around the same time. Eating around the same time. When it is time for bed we bathe him, put him in his sleep sac, feed him and then into the crib he goes. He is out like a light without any fussing.
He can’t spell it. Will give me a blank look when I say the word but believe me though, our son knows what a routine is and is thankful for it.
I’m finding this with my life. When I can get into a routine where I am eating, sleeping, working and relaxing around the same time I am happier. I’m more productive.
I think I need to do a live eye on routines or perhaps write a book about it. No, wait a minute. That would break up my routine.

How adorable and cute!!!
I love my routines as well because I have been doing it since 1986 and proud of it – YAHOO!!! 
I liked when you wrote this sentence!!!
“I think I need to do a live eye on routines or perhaps write a book about it. No, wait a minute. That would break up my routine” LOL
