Especially today when DD is teething and DS just wants to "go somewhere!" It's so tempting to throw them in the car and drive thru Starbucks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1935264 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 16:44:47 +0000 sunny 1935264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>From 5:15-8. I have to handle daycare pickup, making dinner (usually while watching LO) and convincing her to eat something. It is so draining! If she were a better eater or more independent with playing while I was cooking, it would be way less stressful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1935261 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 16:42:27 +0000 Ree723 1935261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4 pm to bedtime. DH doesn't get home until 7:30 so I am completely on my own with meal time, bedtime routines, and just general end of the day crankiness. I usually am flat out of patience by that time of day as well. A 9 month old and a 2 yr kid could wear down the patience of a saint I think! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934957 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 14:43:09 +0000 coopsmama 1934957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: Yep. I look forward to nap time from about 9am on. It's the longest stretch of the day with the kiddos at their most energetic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934892 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 14:19:37 +0000 winniebee 1934892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4-6 (when DH gets home most days) --- especially when T does not nap which is like every other day lately. Sesame St FTW. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934887 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 14:18:01 +0000 Lindsay05 1934887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as you. That moment after naps are finished and until DH walks through the door kill me. I am so exhausted by then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934884 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 14:16:44 +0000 DillonLion 1934884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right when we all get home at 6/630. Everyone is starving and cranky, LO wants to spend time together but we have to do chores and prepare dinner, so she melts down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934860 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 14:05:52 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1934860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: Same. It's hard to do anything at 4 because sometimes he eats as early as 5. Then I get a little break when DH gets home, but it's hard filling the time between dinner and a too late bedtime! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934852 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 14:02:39 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1934852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Varies each day..</p> <p>MWF it's most difficult between 7:30-8:30 when I am trying to juggle nursing Charlotte while making bfast &amp; getting Chloe dressed, then getting both kids out the door on time to drop Chloe off for preschool. </p> <p>T-th it's difficult because I work, and Charlotte won't take a bottle &amp; won't let anyone but me hold her. If she's awake, I can't work. It's as simple as that :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934782 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:35:58 +0000 bushelandapeck 1934782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually 6-8:30pm.

I hit a wall around 5pm where I am just done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934740 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:23:31 +0000 travelgirl1 1934740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything before noon. Mornings are insane. Once we reach nap time and I can recharge, I'm good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934729 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:16:10 +0000 .twist. 1934729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>between leaving work and getting home at the end of the day. </p> <p>My commute is fickle so picking L up on time (or within a reasonable time to get home and make dinner) gives me anxiety. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934726 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:14:52 +0000 MrsCastro 1934726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>leaving my son in the morning... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-the-hardest-part-of-the-day#post-1934718 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 13:09:27 +0000 Bao 1934718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It varies day to day, but for the most part the hardest part of our day is from about 4pm-bedtime. I'm anxiously waiting for DH to get home from work (6:15pm), trying to make dinner, entertaining two tired kids, doing baths, etc. I think it's because my patience are dwindling after a full day with two little kids. </p>
