7:30-10:30pm - grown up time! We watch tv, play games, or Bryan goes to the gym while I relax at home.

Pretty routine days. Sometimes I skip the gym and take Bradley to the library, definitely Tuesdays. We try to keep Bradley's home life structured since we travel so often. He really loves knowing what comes next. It's cute to hear him in the backseat say, "Home!" After the gym or "Dada" at the end of the day on out way to pick up Bryan.
