No fixed schedule for me! I iron in the evening once a week when DS2 is in bed and can't get into too much trouble (I only iron DH's work shirts). I clean up each evening after the boys are in bed so I'm not hit with a huge mess first thing in the morning. I usually vaccum and mop once a week (my mum has been helping me lately, bless her ) and sweep every few days to keep on top of it. I clean the toilets and bathrooms every Thursday, it helps to set a day for each job so you stick to it. Washing gets done every 2-3 days and the boys play outside while I hang it out. I start cooking dinner at about 4:30pm-ish so that dinner time is all over and cleaned up well before bathtime at 7pm.
DH does our shopping on Saturday mornings, I used to manage doing the shopping with DS1 and do it on a Monday morning, but once DS2 came along it was just easier for DH to do it!
Quality time is not scheduled, we just go for walks most days, read books together, do puzzles, drawing, painting, etc. And DH gets bombarded with two happy boys when he gets home LOL. DH always puts DS1 to bed and reads him a couple of stories, so there is plenty of quality time in our house, it's just kind of all over the place!
Sometimes I think I should try and schedule specific things, but it's hard because I also run a business from home and I have customers that come over and that kind of throws my plans out.
