My Little Alarm Clocks.


I have been wanting to post something about my children and their strange but true schedules. Before I continue I must admit that for the most part they have set their schedule themselves. So, if it sounds like they are little robots, please someone come and tell me how to reset their programs. I would love for them to sleep in especially on the weekends.

Here we go.
6:00-6:30 All the boys wake-up. No matter what day it is.
6:30-7:00 Breakfast
9:00 Snack
11:30 Lunch
12:30 They little boys are ready for nap except on Thursday then they have a sudden burst of energy and will realize they are tired at 1ish
2:45 Snack
5:00 Dinner.
7:00 to bed

A lot of these times are flexible. But, I think it is so funny that if I am running late with the meals all three are totally upset. I am thankful that they keep me on a schedule. However, I would love for them to sleep in every once in a while. Like on Saturday or Holidays. Oh well, I guess if we want that we would have to keep them up later and that would be a wreck around here. Three very tired children staying awake so we could get some extra sleep.

I pretty much have the same deal except mine starts at 7:30 in the morning. That is funny is so funny. Yeah, I agree Sleeping in would be nice.

At least they are all on the same schedule! I don't know what's going to happen with us whenever we have another one. I'm so glad Michael isn't up at 6! I think he's just wired to stay up later and get up later (most days).

Wait Steph, you forgot to mention that on days when you work out early at the gym, Gavin typically wakes up around 5:00, like he did today!
