DH and I are major creatures of habit, doing nearly the same thing every day and feeling happy about it.
LO seems to thrive on routine as well. We're pretty militant about keeping her to her schedule so that she is fed, well rested, and can feel calm in her surroundings. We hope this keeps her happy and prevents unnecessary melt downs. She is generally a very happy, easy going child.
Does your family thrive on routine or are you more free spirited?

Bedtime is the only thing I try to keep consistent.

Yup! Both of my DS have done well with routines, although they aren't super perturbed if things are a bit off. Big changes are tough though.

We are a little more go with the flow even though I like routines. I'd love to introduce a real routine but it's doubtful it will happen.

We are definitely routine people and my kiddo thrives with the predictability.

LO2 is still too young to understand much but she does like her feeding and sleeping routines. I once tried to feed her solids before her bottle and she sucked on the spoon so angrily! LO1 likes routine and will remind me when I did something out of order.
