(This is a multi question :lol: )

What time do you get up in the morning and what gets you up at that time?

[magoo]

I get up whenever Jacob gets up. Sometimes it's before 6:00, but lately it's been closer to 6:30 or 7:00. :aok:

[Mary]

We get up at 5:30 am with the alarm clock.

Mary

[Clare]

Between 6-6.30am when Harry comes in to wake me. Often I'm already awake and just lying there waiting for him. I hate that my body won't let me sleep past 6am! :tearhair:

[sheila]

My alarm goes off at 6:40. I need to be out of bed by 7 so I can get Maggie up for school. Sometimes she is up already, sometimes not.

[Melissa]

I generally wake up when Katie does, that's anywhere from 6:30-7:15, if she is up before 6:30, we relax for a while. Reed is up at 5:30 most days, his alarm wake him up, or a kick from me.

[Mary DK]

Around 6:30 and it's either the alarm or my bladder that wakes me up :shuffle:

[TtownAnne]

7am, when my alarm goes off so I can quick get dressed and get Caroline up at 7:20.

[Nocona]

5:20 when my alarm clock goes off. I usually wake up around 5 and just doze until it goes off.

[Jayne]

For me it is an alarm on Mon, Wed, Fri it is at 6:45 and on Tuesday and Thursday it is at 5:45. Bot are for me to get up to receive someone's child coming for my care. Although I need up around 7 if it were just me and the kids because Tylor gets on the bus at 5 till 8.

[Karri]

If Chris is home, he gets up at 5:30 and will get me up at 6:30. If he is traveling, I get up whenever the kids do....usually between 5:30-6:00.
On the weekends, I sleep until he releases the troops in the bedroom :heee: I am so not a morning person.

[Brooke]

My alarm gets me up. It's set for 6:45 and I get up by 7am, so I can be out of the shower when Rebekah's alarm goes off at 7:15. She doesn't even hear her alarm most days and I have to go in and wake her up. :rolleyes:

[Shel]

My alarm goes off at 7:15, however, Owen (AKA my other alarm) is 99% of the time already up and yelling for me way before the actual alarm goes off.

[Alyssa]

I wake up when my body tells me to wake up - it's usually a little before 7. (I don't actually get out of bed then most days though.) Some days (when I've been up really late) it's closer to 8 and then it's a little hairy getting Aidan ready for school on time. :blush: I haven't used an alarm clock in years, but I've been trying to remember to set one so that I can get up and exercise. I'm failing at that, but I swear I will as soon as it's not 20 degrees at 6am and I can go out to run. :crossfing And next year when Aidan has to take a bus (and/or the other 2 are in daycare every day) I think I'll set the alarm more.

[Karly]

Wow, I sleep much later than a lot of you! :woa:

I sleep until my kids wake me up, which is usually between 7:30 and 8ish.

[Mary DK]

Karly, my kids & I used to sleep that late before Eliot started kindergarten. Now even Ian will not sleep past 8pm, if he does is a miracle.

[Kara]

7:30am, My alarm

[Kara]

WOW alot of your kiddos get up early! LOL!

[Nichole]

I hate most of you. :lol:

On MWF (the days I work), my alarm wakes me up at 5:40am. On the days I'm home, the boys usually wake me up between 6-6:30am. (sometimes on weekends, Brendon will get up with the boys and let me sleep in a bit - usually 7-7:30ish)

[Brandi]

When I worked, I got up at 5am. It sucked!
Now, I get up when my kids get me up. So, anywhere from 6:30 - 7 usually. Sometimes Heather gets up earlier. Those days are hard. Especially when you play Guitar Hero until 1:30am.

[Becca]

My boys don't get up until 730 now, they used to be up at 6am every friggin day though. On the weekends I get to "sleep in" until 800...yay.

[Lynn]

I get up between 6:30 and 7:00. I actually want to get up that early so I can have my coffee in peace and quiet before Aaron gets up at 7:30.

I naturally get up that early. I haven't set an alarm since I stopped working I think.

[Wendy]

Depends on where I have to be or when. If I am just going to the office then it is 6:30 so I can get Abby up by 7:00 and out the door by 7:45. If I have to be in court it is much earlier. Yesterday it was 5:30 and today was 6:00 and I was out the door by 7:00-7:15.

[Melissa]

I hate most of you. :lol:

On MWF (the days I work), my alarm wakes me up at 5:40am. On the days I'm home, the boys usually wake me up between 6-6:30am. (sometimes on weekends, Brendon will get up with the boys and let me sleep in a bit - usually 7-7:30ish)
When I was in college, the school where I did my student teaching required its teachers to be there at 6:45!!! Homeroom was at 7:10a.m. :woa: Everyone was :yawn: at that time.

[LISA]

When I'm not working (nightshift) I have my alarm set for 6:25 am :dead: on weekends Paige will get me up at 7 or 7:30 it's very rare she sleeps in later than that.

[MamaGoofy]

I get up between 5 and 5:20am. My alarm wakes me up.

[Karri]

Nichole - shall we beat up those whose kids sleep? :lol:

When I used to work, I willingly got up at 4:45 to work out before work (pre kids) and then at 5:00 to spend time w/ Aidan (post child). Crazy woman.

[Alysia]

During the week my alarm goes off at 6; Although I hit the snooze button at least 5 times this morning and still got to work on time. :lol:

On Saturday and Sunday, I get up whenever Genavieve starts yelling, "momma/daddy im awake"

[Darcy]

My troops are up between 6 and 7, and then I let Riley hang out in our bed until Jeremy wakes up, which lately has been around 7ish. I hate mornings.

On the weekends, Phil takes the kids and I sleep in. I can usually make it until 7:30 when the kids are clammering for breakfast, and I come down so Phil can fix us all a wonderful breakfast.

[Nichole]

Nichole - shall we beat up those whose kids sleep? :lol:


You hold 'em down; I'll give 'em noogies. :lol:

[sabrina]

I wake up at 5 to get breakfast and lunch Depending on how tired I am depends on if I stay up or go back to sleep. Lately, I have been going back to sleep and the kids haven't been getting up until 9 or later so I have been sleeping very late.

[MrsPeacefrog]

My initial wake up is to kill Tony goodbye at 5am, I then go back to sleep. My kids will wake up anywhere from 7-8 (sometimes 8:30) so on school holidays those are the times I get up. But now that Aiden is in preschool I have the morning carpool shift so I need to be up by 7am to shower and get the kids ready to take him there. On weekends its normally about 7-8am

Clare: STAY UP LATER!! your body will let you sleep longer :giggle:

[Karly]

Do you mean KISS? :lol:My initial wake up is to kill Tony goodbye at 5am :giggle:

[MrsPeacefrog]

:lol2: oops yeah, I meant kiss, how funny and how perfect it came out as kill! I hate him waking me, but do expect the kiss goodbye at the same time!

[Melissa]

:lol: Freudian slip!

[Clare]

Clare: STAY UP LATER!! your body will let you sleep longer :giggle:

Nope, that doesn't work either. Doesn't matter what time I go to bed, unless it's something freakish like 3am. But whether I'm in bed by 9pm or 12am, I'm still awake at 6am :dunno: That's why I go to bed early, so I can get a decent amount.

[Jenn]

During the week, I get up between 5:30-6:00 and I'm woken up by my alarm.

On weekends, Jeff and I wake up between 7:00-7:30 and we are generally woken up by little girls climbing into bed with us.

[Bridget]

6:00. I just wake up unless I'm really really tired. On "tired" nights I'm sure to set my alarm but usually I just wake up.
