Before I even think of beginning a post titled “our typical daily schedule” let me preface it by saying, is there really a “typical” day? LOL. Between the dog getting stepped on, the toddler climbing to top of the bookshelf, the 4-year old grabbing a toy from the toddler, and the diaper changes…well, you get the idea.
