What time do you get up at on Christmas morning?

[OvO]

Usually 8am here.

As a child it was around 2am, then back to bed and we'd all sleep til late.

My parents had barely gone to bed when I'd wake them up! My sisters, once they'd hit their teens, wanted to sleep until 7/8am but I refused and demanded we carry on the 2am tradition. And as the baby of the family (plus my mum was just as happy as me to get up early!) we stuck to doing it my way.

Sorry siblings.

I think my mum thinks I'm terrible for making mine wait until 8am! . They do sleep until then, I don't make them wait if they've woken earlier.

So, how does it work in your house?

clash that's so sweet!

I say to the kids it's "weekend" rules which is don't wake me before 7. Usually they are in and out asking what time it is even though they have a clock in their room and able to tell time: they think if they annoy me enough I will get up!

As kids Dad issued a very strict 7am rule! We'd all be whispering and giggling in the room next door waiting for the exact second we could burst in to their room.

^ this! Except I have a no earlier then 6am rule! They have stockings on their beds which they can open to keep them entertained. Then ds1&2 go into dd's room because they haven't figured out how to tell the time yet. It's so lovely hearing them talk to each other

6am at the latest. I've always been an early riser on Christmas morning - it's not unknown for DSis and I to be texting each other from 5am. It's entirely possible some years I've given DS a prod when he's not awake early enough...

We say not to wake us earlier that 8am...though I think we were raring to go (OH and I) way before that..

DS doesn't wake until after 7am so its never really early
