Early to bed, early to rise

Peyton has decided that 6:30 is a lovely time to wake up. I beg to differ. I think that 8-8:30 is much nicer for him. I get up by 7:00 to get Tyler and Cameron up and off to school. If Peyton is awake then, they're both distracted by him and it takes much longer to get them ready. I end up losing my cool (big surprise) and then every one is unhappy. Plus, I really enjoy my early morning alone time. It's quiet and relaxing. I don't want to lose it. Waaaaaaaaaa.......

I've been keeping him up much later than normal to try and get him to stay in bed a little longer. It's not working. He's stubborn and won't listen to me. I'm so picked on. Sniff......

6 freaking 30?! You have every right to cry!! Seems like Peyton now has a mind of his own--which means that you have 4 independent thinkers at your house. Good luck--I have a hard enough time with 3!!

It could be worse he could go for 4am count your blessings that it is only 6:30. Early morning is best time of day

6:30 is way too early.

I hate the fact that no matter how late you put your kids to bed, they always wake up at the same crazy early time the next morning. Ugh. Teach him how to turn the tv on :)

The sun is up then, try to make his room dark, maybe that will help. If not, a shot of chocolate for you will help.

I agree..love the 8 or 8:30 hour my littlest one gets up to. I also am very selfish of my morning time.
