My home is ordered chaos.

My home is ordered chaos. LOL! I would LOVE a bedtime for my boys (who are 3 1/2 and 5 months). I have one for the girls who are in school. At least on school nights, I can get them in bed before 9. But my husband is the main culprit on me not having a set bedtime with our oldest son. DH doesn't get home sometimes from the fields til well after dark, and he wants his time with DS3. I try for 10, but it's usually later. That will change in the fall when he starts preschool. I'm worried about how DH is going to take to that rather than DS. LOL! And of course on a farm, there are no such things as weekends.

Since the baby, I've had a hard time keeping up with the house (ok, it's been longer than that. LOL!). But I've found that the flylady system helps most of the time. Go to www.flylady.net to see what that's all about.

Ok, baby is now asleep (nursing while typing helps). I have to do a few things before he wakes up again (which will be too soon for all I need to get done. He hates the crib, but I can't do all I need to do with 21 pounds of him in the sling. So naps aren't lasting long. Neither is night time sleeping. Ugh. I DO need a bit more structure than my husband allows).
