Saturdays

I am a little behind on my posts, so I will do several today. Saturdays are usually lazy mornings around our house. It usually consists of the boys waking up early and watching TV quietly until a reasonable hour. I consider 8:00am on a Saturday a reasonable hour, anything earlier is not acceptable. Then breakfast, this can vary from cold cereal to full blown pancakes, eggs, bacon, waffles, French toast, or something along those lines. After that, I start with some of my chores… the ones that take some time before I really have to do much work, like laundry (the clothes have to go through the washer and dryer before I have to fold them) or dishes (dishwasher… need I say more?). While that is going on, the boys kick back and watch more TV. I know it sounds like a lot of TV, but during the week they have to earn the privilege of TV. For every 30 minutes spent outside playing, riding bikes, scooters, etc., they get 30 minutes of TV time. So Saturdays they get a little free TV before they do their chores. As you can see from the picture below, they really know how to kick back and enjoy their TV time.
