In just a few weeks our daughter will be back in school and we&rsquo;ll be back to a morning routine. Having a morning routine is really important with 3 little ones to get out the door on time in the morning in our home. Without one it&rsquo;s pure chaos and craziness.<\/p>\n<p>I like to get up before the kids and take a shower. I&rsquo;m a morning shower person and they really help to get my day going and wake me up. Those 30 minutes of quiet before the kids get up is also a nice start to my morning. Once I&rsquo;m out of the shower and dressed, I toss a load of laundry in the washer and start getting all the kids up. Getting the kids up can be a process sometimes, especially since my kids are not morning people. Once they&rsquo;re up they come down for breakfast.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/2016\/08\/a-school-morning-with-mom\/jimmy-dean-delights-frittatas\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-13134\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13134\" src=\"http:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Jimmy Dean Delights Frittatas\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas.jpg 1402w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" data-webp=\"true\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13134 lazyload\" alt=\"Jimmy Dean Delights Frittatas\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) calc(100vw - 48px), 700px\" data-webp=\"true\" data-src=\"http:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-1024x683.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thedenverhousewife.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Jimmy-Dean-Delights-Frittatas.jpg 1402w\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20700%20467'%3E%3Crect%20width='700'%20height='467'%20style='fill:%23e3e3e3'\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Breakfast is usually something quick and easy. Cereal, Oatmeal, or Frozen waffles with fresh fruit. I usually skip breakfast, but I&rsquo;m really trying to sit down with the kids and enjoy breakfast with them. I also find that by eating breakfast with the kids I stay fueled longer in the morning and I don&rsquo;t find myself starving and grabbing not so good for you foods.
