need schedule help from btdt moms

I'm looking for any help and ideas on how to get my house back on a schedule. I think I'm ok with plans for the house keeping and such but when it comes to getting the kids on a plan during the day I'm lost. The last 6 months have been really hectic but I know that its time to really focus on it.
What I'm looking for is a sample of how you all with schedules do it. Like specific times for meals naps activities crafts play cleaing? How do you figure it out? I'm really good at following a set/ written down plan but its getting to that point that I get lost. With one in 3rd grade, a five yr old- school in the fall, a 2 year old, almost 10 month old and baby soon to be here its necessary that I get a plan!
I work 4 nights a week pt from 230 am to 630 am so I'm trying really hard to get all the kids on one bedtime schedule but I'm failing!
The oldest gets up for school at 730, I'd love to be able to get them all up at that time, but with being at home and a very long day with the baby and snow/cold outside how do you keep them occupied during the day- I'm tired of the tv being on all the time.
Thanks in advance for any help!
