two boys hungry

I get anxious thinking about how I am going to feed two boys as they grow up. Colin already demands dinner at 4:30 when he walks in the door. No I am not even exaggerating.

The routine goes something like this:
3:30. look at the clock and think crap, dinner.  Answer emails/calls over stove.
4:00. change to make sure my husband is still attracted to me.
4:30. all the boys walk in the door.
4:31. colin: "i wanna eat"
5:15. baths
5:30. rough housing with dad to make sure colin gets all wound up before bed
5:45. demands for wanting to go outside start.
6:00. when i usually announce to my two toddlers to start winding down.
6:15. stories
6:30. bed
6:35. wine and hgtv

the kids go to bed pretty early but they are also up super early so making sure they get a full nights sleep is very important to us. Lots of people look at us wide eyed when we say bedtime is 6:30 and people are still getting home from work. But our routine works nicely for our family and fussy babies are no fun for anyone :)
