I am having the best morning.

I need to AW it. Dh has been working ot and no matter how quiet he is, dd has been waking before he leaves at 6 am. she's then a cranky mess, screaming at me until I can get her breakfast and then whining until her morning nap.

This morning, after a lot of effort (including my sleeping on the couch after 5 to keep the dog from running past dds room), she didn't wake before dh left. And then she slept until 8. 8! She has never, ever done that before. And since then she's been incredibly pleasant. She was patient while I made pancakes and has been running around playing by herself ever since. Right now she's pushing her baby around in a stroller so proudly.

What a great day.

Lol I realize how lame this all sounds, but I just don't care. Anyone else have a good morning?

Yay!

M was up at 5:30 today, thankfully DH got up & played with him so I could sleep another 30 min.

8am is fantastic, I hope this means a great rest of the day too!

Ooh, sleeping until 8 is awesome, I am jealous! I'm having a nice morning so far. The boys are at school, DD is taking a nap, and the weather is absolutely gorgeous here (supposed to be in the high 70s again), probably because of that storm that's supposed to come through New England later. Whatever the reason, I'll take it!

That sounds great!

I totally get it - that IS a great way to start the day!

She just woke up from her morning nap. We're going out to lunch to celebrate.

That's awesome! DS woke up around 4 this morning and DH brought him into our bed. He never sleeps in our bed, but this morning he slept so good with us and slept in until 7:30! He normally gets up at 6:30. I had to rush to get to work on time, but the extra sleep was great!

My child skipped her morning nap the last 2 days, today she gave in. Fantastic! I had a nap too.

Sleeping until 8 is heaven.

That is awesome! I had the same issue bc DH would leave at 5. I bought a white noise machine for DD2's room, so she couldn't hear him getting ready and it made a big difference!
