had a very busy weekend and i am shattered - my ds (almost 3) is getting up earlier and earlier - was always 7 (fine), then 6 (not so great) - over the weekend it has been 5:30am - he is up and ready to go - but still tired - so grumpy (as we all are!).
give me some hope - is this going to be improve!!

my DD did this last summer...it ended up being 5am and was ridiculous! So I got some blackout curtains and said to DH that this summer, I will bring her into bed with us but I am NOT getting out of bed before 6.30.
Touch wood - she is sleeping pretty good and it was 8.30 starts on Saturday and Sunday (not bragging, totally unheard of in our house though!)
Also if I hear her awake I don't go into her unless she's crying. If she's chatting I just roll over and go back to sleep 
my 2 are 6 and 4 and I can count on one hand the times they have slept in past half 6. whowouldknow · 03/06/2013 13:53
i have black out blinds and curtain liners - i think he just wakes and that is him! must google grow clock - sounds interesting! also on a mission to get dinner and supper into him (difficult as we have a short window between getting home and bedtime!)
nice to know i am not alone - i have a a SIL who likes to boast about having to wake hers to get ready for school - although she never mentions how many times she is up during the night - only hear that from my brother 
.
guess i'll just have to get used to early nights and early mornings for the time being
