new bedtime routine

We started a new bedtime routine for K. She is not tired anymore at 7:30 when her usual bedtime is so we started a new thing tonight. We put her in her room at 7:30. I read her a couple of her preschool golden books, and then she can play until 9 pm, if she doesn't fall asleep before then. It is going to work out really well, I think. She won't have to go to bed so early, but Rodney will still get his time to unwind. She gets few minutes of alone time with me. I get some quiet time too. I used to read books to her every night but after O was born, it got really hard to do. I tried to still do it but it got put on the backburner. She has over 300 little golden books. I started collecting for her right after she was born. I have not been collecting like I once was but I still browse the new ones when I see them.
