congratulations! I have 3 children, now 11, 13, 17.

So older, but they still have activities and schedules. I tend to stay up a bit later than my wife to be able to spend time on coding. I also try and set aside 2-3 weekend days a month to dedicated, don't interrupt me coding. Then I fill in the gaps and spend time as I can.

Laptop and earbuds are helpful to me.

"2-3 weekend days a month", thats sounds reasonable!

I could do more if I wanted (and sometimes do) but I try and make sure my wife has her own days too. She is very understanding and gets that I need to code my own projects for part of my happiness. I get the same about her hobbies.
