 I totally understand.. my husband and I always try to put our daughter in bed early that way we can lay in bed and read or watch adult shows.. no luck :/ see is always looking for an excuse to be with us and by the time she falls asleep we are beat and sleepy too :(  What keeps us sane is thinking that soon she will be so big and they will both be out of the house lol

Quoting Kelly913:

Sort of.  It's hard to get him to bed before 9 though.  We aim for in bed, stories read, snack had, teeth brushed, last drink, etc by 830, but our life is too chaotic to stick to it!  That arrangement seems to hamper the marriage relationship though, in our case. 

Quoting yvonne37:

 I see.. have you tried the other way around? putting him in bed and staying up late?  the night stillness is nice too :)

Quoting Kelly913:

I'm really not a morning person, but for the sake of a bit of quiet, I have tried this.  My son, who will normally sleep until about 8-830 would be up 5 minutes after me every time I've tried this!  I can stay in bed until 7 and he sleeps til his normal time, but if I try to do anything earlier he's up with me! 

Quoting yvonne37:

 I usually try to get up before everyone is up and go to the backyard swing and sit there with a cup of coffee... thats my "me" time.. but once every 2-3 months my husband takes the kids and i stay home alone :)) 

Quoting Kelly913:

How often do you get it? 

Quoting yvonne37:

 Sometimes I need a break from my family...  at least an hour of silence :)
