By nature I am a very organized, on-time (for the most part and pre-baby of course!), and somewhat OCD individual. Luckily, or not-so-lucky, for our daughter I married a man who is exactly like me in that regard. You could say our household is full of structure and routine and we LOVE it that way. However, having a baby changes you in more ways than one. Where we use to eat dinner most nights around 7-7:30 we now are struggling to eat even a bowl of cereal by 9pm! Campbell has a bedtime routine that takes about an hour - bath, lotion/baby massage, jammies, bottle, rocking. After one of us puts her to bed its a mad dash to pick up from the day and have something for dinner. I am feeling like if we don't use the crockpot dinner is a complete crapshoot OR we aren't eating until 9pm.
Are we just horrible at time management? How can we be better organized for the dinner time rush?

Side note: I would eat dog food everynight for the rest of my life for this little lady...
She really is the cutest! As for dinner, we are in the same boat. I try and get things started during the day while she naps so that I just have to finish / heat it up after she goes to bed, but for the most part, we are not done eating until 8:30 or 9 most nights, sigh.
