Getting back on Schedule

It is Monday here in New Zealand. Most of us have worked out our jet lag kinks and I have been dying to get the kids on a productive schedule. Today was the day. We woke up, had breakfast, did our Te Reo Maori lesson video together as a family, went for our scheduled outside time and then the kids are now sitting doing their workbooks (material that keeps their previous grade material in their brains while preparing them for the grade level ahead) while we await lunch.

Now when lunch is over and the kids want to play on their electronics, I can lay back and relax and let them, knowing that I exercised their bodies and minds already for the day. This will be our new schedule.

The rooms are too packed with suitcases and beds for me to workout along with one of my exercise videos, but I've been trying to do some core work throughout the day as best I can. We are all finding what keeps us sane, happy and motivated.
