There goes our last free night...

[InBetweenDays]

Springs are crazy with sports since P plays t-ball and starts lacrosse this year, and E plays soccer and lacrosse. 

When we signed P up for LAX it said there was one practice a week - Sundays from 1:30-2:30pm. Definitely doable. It starts this Sunday and we hadn't heard anything yet. H just got an email and practices are Sunday 4-5pm AND Thursdays 5:30-6:30pm.

So now,
Monday - P's t-ball (plus they have sewing and circus sports after school - but it is in the school and really just allows us to work later)
Tuesday - piano
Wednesday - P's t-ball game and E's soccer practice
Thursday - P's LAX practice
Friday - E's LAX practice
Saturday - E's LAX games
Sunday - E's soccer games and P's LAX practice (plus occasionally E has LAX games on Sunday as well). 

E has 5 games this weekend! Two LAX games on Saturday in Queen Anne, two on Sunday in Issaquah, and a soccer game on Sunday in Magnuson! I know we did this to ourselves, and the kids love it, but it shouldn't be this crazy and this early of an age!

That's crazy. I'm limiting my kids to one sport per season.

Maybe split up parental nights?

[InBetweenDays]

Yeah, we do split it up as much as possible. H coaches E's LAX so he has to be there, and P usually likes to go to those games/practices. Luckily we're friends with many other families on the teams so we can trade off as needed too. But makes homework and family time harder to squeeze in.

I think your kids do more in a week than I do in a year

Holy cow! We've lucked out so far, that the tee-ball we've done hasn't been too intense. I'm working on summer camp things for him right now, though, and I know he's got a list of things he wants to do.

That's intense! I nannied for a family in college and the kids had a schedule like that. It wore them out but it wore their nanny out more!

Yeah. I need a nap after reading that schedule!
