    Bit me in the butt this morning....4.40am. OMG, I didn't think I could hate getting up any more than I did at 5am, but 4.40....it should be illegal! DD slept til about 5.45 though. Yay The upside is they have had a 1 3/4 hour sleep this arvo and still going! DS took 2 seconds to get into bed for his arvo nap but wanted to go back to bed at 10am! I stretched him out til 11 but couldn't stand his whining and grumpiness any longer! They're going to bed at 7pm, but it's the mornings that are all over the shop! I hope they sort themselves out a bit tonight, I have to go to work tomorrow!

    DD1 went to bed at 6:30 last night (unheard of here) after a HUGE day i guess and slept in til 7 i swear this kid is up by 7 - 7:30 at the latest every day, even with the time change.. why couldn't she sleep til 8am previously?

    Wonder how she will go today, she was up at 7, went to bed just after 11am and is still asleep.. 2hrs and counting.

    Crappy sleeping for all of us here, battling to get her to go back to sleep, we are all feeling sleep deprived....

    Well, the positive is that we got an almost 3 hour nap out of DS today, which was awesome.

    And even more awesome....DS is staying at my mum's tonight!!! Super yay! Hello sleep in.... (ie- anything beyond 6am).

    well i was awake before any of the kids, and bubs woke at 6am so thought i may as well 'let him get up' after his feed.... 3 year old dd didn't surface until about 7.20am.... it was quite nice watching the morning news shows just with the bub, uninterupted cuddles etc.... aaaaaagh babies seem so easy at the moment compared to toddlers.... in a weird kinda way, even though they are so utterly dependent... they don't make as much noise (when they are content!)
    oh and they don't demand ABCkids on the tele in the mornings.
