Snack at 7 then bath, teeth brushing, bathroom, story, and bedtime dvd.
As hard as it is, I try to stay consistent with this routine. The kids know what is coming, which helps things go more smoothly. Sometimes, though, I just don't feel like it. I've learned not to beat myself up if the kids miss a bath one night, however Devon hasn't. If his schedule gets messed up, all heck breaks loose. It's good for all kids to have a schedule but kids with autism need a schedule.

I am tired tonight and have a migraine. Trying to get Devon to start sleeping in his room...
