It's barely 5:22 and we're already done eating. It's like we're senior citizens!
What time do you eat dinner?

What time do you eat dinner?

Haha! I usually start cooking once Dh is giving S her bath before bed and we eat around 7pm once she's down for the night. Lunch is a different story and we eat whenever we're hungry...usually it's around 11.30!

DD eats dinner pretty much as soon as we get home (so usually around 5:30) - she used to nurse then and eat dinner around 6:15, but we are weaning and setting her down to eat is the only way I can distract her from head-butting my chest.
I usually prep dinner while she eats, and DH and I eat after she is in bed (we eat at about 8:00).

LO eats around 6pm, we eat after she's in bed, so anywhere between 8 and 10pm.

DD eats at 6.30 and then we eat at 8 after she is in bed. I would love to find a way to have us all eating together at 6.30 though, I think it would make me go to bed a lot earlier!

We eat early...around 5. DH works at 5:30 am, so has an early lunch, which makes him hungry when he gets home from work. He's usually starving by the time I have dinner ready. DS doesn't mind, cause then he's got lots of time to play afterwards before bedtime. It also allows him to get a snack later on.

If it's just me and the hubby, between 6 and 6:30. I always come home STARVING!
If we're going out to eat with friends, between 6:30 and 7.

Xander eats between 5:30 and 6:00 and IDEALLY, Hubs and I would eat then too! But Hubs has been working late, so we've been eating after Xander goes to bed, between 7:00 and 7:30!

Usually around 5:30 but sometimes as late as 6:30 if LO had a super long nap - she's just not hungry when she first gets up. Sometimes she eats first and we have dinner later bc 5:30 is pretty early for dinner

I usually eat a little bit with E at 7, and a little bit with D whenever he gets home (if he gets home before midnight).

5:45 - 6:00. When LO was a baby we would make dinner for ourselves after he went down for the night. Now we eat an early dinner together. I don't go to sleep until close to midnight so I also eat a 2nd dinner.

Whenever lo is taking her final nap..usually around 6:00. We used to eat much later, like 8pm before kids!

6. We used to feed LO first and then cook and eat after her bedtime which ended up getting us to 8, but we recently started eating together and it has been great! When I was growing up, we ate dinner at 5 so I get you on the senior citizen feeling!

5:45-6...whenever DH gets home. I get all the prep done the night before, LO wants to eat as soon as we get home from daycare, so I feed her a little bit to tie her over!

5:30 give or take a few minutes. It's SO HARD because I don't get home until 5 and have a clingy toddler on me while I'm cooking most days.

If we go out to eat we usually go around 5:30. If we eat at home it's after DD is in bed, so around 7:30.

It is so much easier for us to wait until DS goes to bed before we start cooking, so we usually eat around 8pm.

Anywhere between 7:30 and 8:30. I don't get home until 5:30, and LO goes to bed between 7 and 7:30.

anytime between 7 and 8. Depends on what we are having and if we got any prep done before R goes to bed.

@Mamaof2: We're in Sweden.
DH is usually starving when he gets home so we eat right away. On days I don't cook, we'll eat as late as 6:30. Pre-baby we ate around 7-8.

Oh man we eat dinner late 7:30-8:30pm because I like to wait for DH. I feed LO her dinner before we eat since he works late most days. I want to change things up in 2014 though, I think I will eat before DH and then just keep him company while he's eating. Eating so late is not helping my weight loss goals.

I've found it easiest to eat whenever the kids eat, which means all meals are early! Dinner is at 5. I save a portion for DH to reheat when he gets home.

I try to have dinner ready at 6 when DH gets home. I don't like eating much later than that.

Our goal is to eat dinner at 6:00 with LO. In reality, we almost always end up eating at 8:00 after she is asleep. I am so jealous of those that get to eat early--I would take 5:00 over 8:00 any day!

We both don't like eating late at night and we like to eat with DS so we can have family time. We eat around 5:30 when DH gets home and then DS goes to bed at 6:30!

We eat between 6-6:30pm depending when I get home from work. We've definitely ate between 5-6 on weekends

@FarmWifeGina: You call lunch, dinner?
We eat between 5 and 6pm!

Around 5:30 as soon as DH gets home. I get home around 4:15, so hopefully am able to cook something- DD is very clingy after school. The crock pot saves my life regularly.

About 6, maybe a bit later. It's good timing for us as then A can go straight in the bath and boy does she need it after dinner, lol.
