Getting myself into routine for 4 yr old?

You just had a baby or are about to...not sure which...but a very good reason to be low on energy, high on stress and low on patience. Just take it one thing at a time and though routine is good for young children, they will survive just fine if it isn't always there. Do the best you can and don't worry about unimportant things...like if the laundry piles up or the windows don't get whiped clean from finger prints.
