    I have 2 girls ages 4 and 5. They are my pride and joy, and also the reason I gained 60lbs. LOL
    I have a rule in my house called "quite time" they dont have to be asleep, but its mommy's time to relax.
    I work full time 8-5 M-F, have a fiance, and two dogs. Its so much work being a parent, I mean even using the bathroom they wait outside the door for you. *ugh* LOL

    Quiet time... ah those were the days! I did the same method with mine. An hour before "lights out" they had to be in their own rooms quietly reading or playing a constructive game alone like memory or building blocks or something of that nature. No Video games or TV, no rough housing around with one another. It worked great. 10 minutes before lights out it was brush teeth, go potty, and get water; when lights were out any child who left their bed was grounded for one day to the house; this helped avoid the nightly "mommy, I'm thirsty, I need to potty..." excuses that are so normal.

    Ah I really miss those days. Now I am lucky if the Teen Queen is home when I go to bed LOL

    2 boys 6yrs. and 19 mos. one girl 4 mos. and oh yes I ask where's the me time everyday! I think they should attach the description of no more us time to the back of the "Don't shake the baby" paper in the hospital. I think we already know not to shake the baby it's the other stuff we'd like to be warned about (lol....).

    Married with 5!!! Yes 5! 3boys and 2 girls. Boys are 17, 13 and 12. Girls are 16 and 10.
    You would think with all the running around I do, I should be dropping off pounds everywhere. NOT..LOL It's working from 8-5. Mon.thru Friday then little league football practice from 6-8 with games on Saturdays. Then its jazz, ballet, tap etc. For my 10 yr.old on Mon.and Wed. Plus Bible study on Wednesdays. Football games on Tuesday's for my 13 yr.old. Mime and praise and worship on Thursday and Saturday. Thank goodness no one wanted to play basketball. Which brings us into track season for 4out of 5 kids. Oops almost forgot a child at band practice..gotta go and support the 16 yr.old at her dance recital. Did I mention I still have to cook, oh wait..let me think..is it a fastfood night. Hubby works evenings dang still gotta cook!! I don't remember signing up for this..I think it was in the fine print of BEING A PARENT!! Where's my ME TIME?! LOL Now I guess.

    i got tired just reading this LOL
    i have two daughters 14 and 20 and one grand son who just turned 2.

    HI!
    I have 2 - a boy who is 7 and a girl that is 5 (she thinks she is 16 however). I go to the gym at 5 AM as when I get home from my day of teaching PE and volunteering as a diving coach, the last thing I want to do is be away from my kids and husband. Even days like today when I over sleep (RARELY) I squeeze in a work out at work during my lunch. My own kids and my students keep me busy and happy...

    Expecting my first currently. He's due February 17th.

    Yay. My boy was Jan 17th :) Bet you're ready to get it over with. I hated being preggers!

    I'm getting to the "ugh, I hope this baby comes RIGHT at 37 weeks!" stage! Knowing my luck, he'll be late.

    I have 4 kids. 8, 6, 2, 6 months- 1 boy and 3 girls. I work only part time. Kid care and after school programs are just too much money. My son is in a before school program and an after school program. They also have saturday school to. In a few weeks they will be starting karate and ARt classes. The hardest time of my day is gettign into bed. Thank god my 6 month old is already sleeping through the night. She is such a good baby.

    I am 27 years old and we have 4 :D two girls aged 6 and 7 and 2 boys aged 2 and 4 :D my life is constantly running. Thankfully I am a stay at home mom but that doesn't mean i am any less busy! We are up by 6:45AM every day and running. I also babysit another 2 year old twice a week and do disability repite for a 17yr old twice a week. As most of you have said, where is the ME TIME and how do I get some. I did WW 2 years ago(right after my little guy was born) and proudly lost 37lbs, putting me under 180lb which i hadn't been since i was pregnant with our first. sadly i had to have surgery and haven't been able to get back under 200lbs since :( i am looking for motivation to finally get back to a managable place and STAY THERE! :D
