Tag Teaming To Get The Boy Out The Door.....

The 6am Ralphie alarm is not proving to be enough to wake the boy up these past few days.  We are only in our first full week of school, and for the most part, he is the walking dead.  Although he came home pretty energized yesterday, that energy definitely did not carry over to the morning.

Da hubs and I have been working on a routine without even knowing it, to get this kid out da door without him getting a late pass for homeroom at school.  He has played the poor exchange student card a couple of times and that is only going to go so far. 

5am, I get up and get ready to go running with Crazy 1 and Crazy 2.  This is to avoid anymore furniture mauling incidents.  Plus it keeps me in better shape.  I Facebook of course, then take the girls out to haul around the neighborhood.  I come back @ 6 and release the hounds into the chamber of the sleeping Cybil.  6:20, Da hubs goes back upstairs to remind Cybil that school and waking up are not an option and that he best get his ass outta bed.  6:30, Cybil emerges, bounces off some walls into the bathroom. I make lunch sandwiches, Da Hubs makes pancakes.  6:45 Cybil finally done in the shower, so I can jump in.  6:55 Da Hubs and I make the daily shopping list.  Outta meat again.

7am Cybil now turns into boy we all know, eats pancakes, grabs lunch, piles into car, and off to school we go.  Boy now in school to be picked up around 6pm......all to be done again tomorrow........
