(((((Dagny))))) As far as where the kids spend the night, I went a bit against the grain. I really like the idea of them spending school nights in the same house, when it is possible. So I don't often have them during the week. I don't see a huge problem, between work and school that would be mostly getting them to bed, and getting them up. XW works three days a week, and generally works three out of four weekend days. So she is there when they get home from school, and there when they leave, most days. We figured CS as though it was 50-50, and I actually pay more. But in the end, the kids seem content, so I think it is working out ok.
