About 6 out of the last 7 weekday mornings, the kids have woken up around 7:15am. For the last three years, the kid(s) have always been up by 6:30am so this has been a bit odd – we’re attributing it to the change of seasons.
Well, that and the fact that my kids are trying to make me crazy.
DaddyGeek and I both work, so waking up at 7:15am? Not convenient. We don’t ever set our alarm anymore because the kids were always up before it went off. Now we can’t remember to set it and we wake up when they wake up – and 7:15am is too late! We need to be out the door by 8am!
But we haven’t set our alarm despite morning after morning of late waking because dammit we need some extra sleep. Last week we looked forward to the weekend – we could sleep in! Sort of! It would be amazing.
Saturday morning.
6am.
Children. Awake.
Those fuckers.
It’s always that way. Never doubt it. Right now, as I got used to my son sleeping through the night and I’m needing more sleep, he’s decided to start waking 2-3 times a night…damn…

It never fails. You could keep them up till 2 a.m. and they’d still do it.
It’s our punishment for something.

It is so annoying when they do that.
Are they hardwired to piss us off as regularly as possible?
It’s so nice to read similar stories about what goes on in my house.

I am very familiar with this. My kids do the same thing. And when we used to commute into work together, we’d have to be out the door by 7:15 so that Chris could catch the train that would get him to work on time. Oliver was the hardest to get out of bed. I used to say he was like a teenager!
