Sleep tight

One of my most favorite things about my kids is that they BOTH go to sleep at 6:00 on the nose. And they drop fast and hard. None of this rolling around, singing songs to themselves, hollering for Mommy business. Sound sleep. And they sleep on and on until 7:00 in the morning (unless Patrick is scheduled- and yes i have to schedule that these days- to wake up with them, then they get up at 6:30...hehehe).

I LOVE THESE SLEEPING KIDDIES!!!

I looked at all the blog and got caught up. Boy the kids are REALLY growing. I also liked your colorful 'happy feet' slippers.

I love those kids. Cuz they look like me. Accept abel. But I just got called from the doctor's office and he is in fact mine.

okay, I have to know how you get your kids to sleep 13 hours/night!?! That would be glorious. Do they take naps? Mine are good sleepers too, and nap until age 4 or so, but don't go to bed until 8 and wake up at 6:30 or 7.

afton doesn't nap but abel still does. hopefully i'll get one more year of naps out of him too!

i think sleep for my kids is a habit. once we started grad school, i needed them in bed for a good chunk of my evening so i just programmed them to eat, wind down and sleep. the brainwashing worked! even if abel wakes up from his nap (like on sundays) really late, he'll still go back to bed at the right time so long as i follow the books, prayer, teeth, songs routine.

it's awesome.

Well, I'm not gonna ask how lol...Pria will sleep for 12+ hours, once you get her down. She's got mommy's "I'm awake at night" problem. But happily, she also got mommy's ability to sleep for a good long while.
