Our bednight routine continues to consume way too much time, but we're having trouble paring it down. One thing we tried on the trip to Ohio that worked well was giving the kids a bath together in the big tub. So far we've never done this at home because we always used the little tub insert. We always thought we'd do this, but then it took Simon forever to be able to sit up sturdily enough for a big bath. Once we got back from Ohio and Zac cleaned the bathtub we tried it, and the kids are even happier at bathtime now. It doesn't really save us much time though.
