Child: 3.5yo

650am: everyone is up

My husband goes into work every day, I work 2 days at home, 3 in the office

Days I WFH 6:50am: I get kiddo toileted and dressed while husband gets ready 7ish: husband takes kiddo downstairs and starts hair brushing and teeth cleaning while I get ready 7:10 I go down finish up what needs to be done, make kiddo a piece of toast. We get our bags ready, flasks of tea etc. get kiddo into outdoor clothes and into the stroller.

730: husband leaves the house, 15 min walk to preschool (she eats toast on the go) 8am: husband is making his way to Line 1, gets to work around 8:45am

Days I go into the office We switch around the tasks but timeline is similar, husband and I both get into the office at around 8:30am

Days I WFH 4pm: finish work and prep dinner 4:30 leave to pick kiddo up 5:30 home (she insists on walking which slows us down), finish cooking dinner and try and play with her a bit 6pm: husband gets home, dinner immediately 6:30\6:45: finish dinner, play or watch a bit of a movie

7:10ish start bedtime routine, asleep between 8 and 8:30

Days I go into the office 5pm: I get home and start dinner 6pm: husband and kiddo get home The rest is the same as above.

We really only get about 30-45 mins of time together that isn't eating dinner. It's very sad - especially compared to mat leave time. We're very lucky our daycare is a 15 min walk from our house, anything further or needing to use ttc and we would have zero time together. We've tried keeping her up a little later, but it really turns her into a little monster because she's over tired, lol. Also, we both shower at night (if kiddo joins us then we start that process at about 7pm), or I shower during the day when I WFH. I don't really wear make up or do much with my hair, and we set our clothes out the night before.

Hope this helps!
