What is your daily schedule like? Do you have any sort of routine established yet? What "activities" do you do with your LO when they are awake?

I have Chat Icon Chat Icon who are almost three months old. They eat every four hours and are now doing longer stretches at night. I'm having a hard time figuring out how much awake time they can tolerate in between feedings. Can anyone share an example of a typical day? TIA Chat Icon

During the day, DS eats every 3 hours. We follow an Eat -> Play -> Sleep routine (if possible) and don't care about what time anything happens - we just go based on when he wakes up. Only thing we're "strict" on is that we start the bedtime routine at 8pm (bath, bottle, book and bed). He's usually in bed by around 9 and usually sleeps through the night (till about 5 or 6am).

For play-time activities we:
-- play on the play mat
-- sing and dance
-- jump on the jumperoo (he can't do it by himself yet but still loves it)
-- go for walks outside (when it's not freezing cold out, obviously)
-- talk (about anything, really)

DS will usually get tired after about 1.5 - 2 hours of being awake (so if he woke up at noon to eat, he'll be tired around 1:30 or 2) but i put him down for his nap based on his queues
