Mum Of 3 Morning Routines - To-Do List

Hi, fellow mums!

Today, I thought I would share with you my school day morning routines and to-do list.

Now there may be a day here and there when a spanner is thrown in the works and I might not have enough time to do everything on my morning to-do list before we head out of the door. But truth be told, I follow this list 95% of the time.

So here goes:

Morning To-Do List

devotionals – reading, praying, meditating
writing
prepare breakfast
get ready (shower, clothes, make-up)
help kids with breakfast
put recycling/rubbish out
clear up breakfast things
level 1 bathroom spot clean
make Daniel’s bed (my hubby makes ours and the girls make their own)
help children finish getting ready (hair, shoes)
level 2 or 3 weekly cleaning
computer work

Morning To-Do List Explained

Ok, so most mornings I get up at around 6.15 and I make a cup of tea and have my devotional time. Then I work on my computer until 7.35, make porridge, or lay out cereal and then I go upstairs to get showered and dressed and I do a quick 5-minute make-up look.

Then at 8.00 I help my kids with their breakfast, and do a few level 1 jobs, like the recycling. Then I clear up the breakfast dishes, make Daniel’s bed, and spot clean the bathrooms.

Finally, I’ll help my children with shoes, coats, etc. and then when they’re all out of the door (hubby takes them to school on his way to work), I get ahead with my level 2 or level 3 cleaning routine. For more on that click here.

I’ll then sit down at the computer at around 9.30 and start my computer work for the day.

And that’s it!
