While we're all being nosy about each others routines and habits...
What time do you go to bed at night?
And what is the last thing you do at night before going to bed?
And what time do you get up in the morning, and what's the first thing you do when you wake up?

Oooo fun!
We are night owls here so usually get to bed between 12 and 1AM. It doesn't really bother me as I sleep best between about 5 and 10AM. (Not for much longer) But I really should try to get DP to go to bed earlier as he gets up at 7AM and doesn't get enough sleep.
Last thing I do before I go to bed is either have a bath, do some crossword puzzles, read a book or watch TV.
I get up at about 10 at the moment, I turn the computer on straight away, make vegemite toast, then come back, check OHbaby, the herald website, metservice, trademe..
I do the same thing everyday. But I won't be able to live like that much longer as I'll be WAY too busy! But I'll more than likely still be on OHbaby quite a bit asking silly questions about newborn babies!

Okay go to bed from 9:30 to 11:30 but usual time is 10:30. Last thing I do is go to the bathroom then take McKayla to the bed with us (she sleeps in the lounge for the first part as she freaks out when she wakes up and I am not there)
Then give her a kiss, tell hubby I love him and go to sleep.
First thing in the morning is hubby waking me up telling me he is off to work and me telling him I love him. If M is still asleep I snuggle up and go to sleep. But at 7 she usually wakes up and then I get up and go to the bathroom after a hug and a kiss from her.

Bed time is always 9.30pm and I usually read for about an hour to wind down and snuggle into bed. Just before I go to bed I do the normal wash face, teeth etc... ensure the cat has food and then jump in. In the morning currently I get up about 8.30 have a shower, breakfast and check all usual web sites (oh baby, metservice, emails). Very routined, then again I am a capricorn

Bed time is normally around 9:30 but I normally go to bed and watch something on Telly - and then generally fall asleep with TV on, DH turns it off when he comes home (bout 1ish- He does an evening shift).
Before I go to bed I normally have a Milo and heat up my Wheatbag, make sure doors are all locked and brush my teeth.
I'm usually woken in the morning around 7 - 7:30 by Elle wanting a feed - I usually feed her, pop her into bed with her Dad and then go make some breaky, have a cuppa and check emails/Oh baby etc - just generally have half an hour of me time.

I try to go around 9.30 if I can drag myself away from the puter and theres nothing good on tv, like boston legal, so worth staying up for. Thats assuming the kids are in bed.. 10.30 at the latest.
And what is the last thing you do at night before going to bed?
Check, and kiss babies, tuck them in, kiss hubby pat dog, check door is locked
And what time do you get up in the morning, and what's the first thing you do when you wake up?
about 7am (again, depends on babies) and first thing I do is put kiddie gates up in kitchen so Jake can't get in.

What time do you go to bed at night?
During the week we are usually in bed by 9pm. DH and I almost always go to bed together, it is rare for one to go before the other...
And what is the last thing you do at night before going to bed?
Tuck my dog and cat into their beds (pathetic I know!), toilet, brush my teeth, set my alarm, kiss DH.
And what time do you get up in the morning, and what's the first thing you do when you wake up?
At the moment I get up at 4.30am and make brekkie in bed for DH & I, feed the dog and cat and prepare the lunches for the day.

4.30am?!! OMG! Thats the middle of the night! EEkk! I am so not a morning person!
We go to bed about 9-9.30pm. I clean my teeth, change into PJ's, get Isla's meds ready for her next feed, put a glass of water by the bed for me, pee, then go to bed!
I usually wake up at 6am when DH gets up to get ready for work,..dose til hopefully 7am when Isla is wide awake.
I pee then go and get Isla up and have big hugs!

I try really hard to be in bed by 9.30. ha My routine before bed is finishing all the picking up after my boys. Which takes from 10 minutes to 30 minutes....boys! By this time I literally crawl into bed and crash.
I first wake at 5 when Dp's alarm goes off. Doze till 5.30 when Dp's car leaves the drive (boys and their toys again) doze till 6.15 when SIL gets in the shower. If for some miracle Tyrell hasn't woken then I get in the shower and then make our bed and pick up dp's washing and put it in the basket.

DH and I go to bed around 9.30, quarter to 10 each night. I check on sleeping Ella last thing before I sleep. Then I wake around 6.30 or 7, whenever Ella wakes up, and feed her and say bye to DH, and the next 2 hours are choc-full with getting Ella's morning stuff done, so I look like a wreck till about 9ish! Might start setting my alarm so I at least shower before she's up.

well i tend to go to sleep after DH but we both jump into bed at about 7 or 8 and watch tv or natter or play with Bay before he goes to bed then DH dozes off about 9.30ish and i lay there daydreaming till about 10 or 11!
The last thing i do before i jump into bed is put my boy to bed (about 8ish) then fill my drink bottle (water bottle) then go toilet then set the alarm for DH.
I get up with DH at 6am to make his lunch and see him off then jump back into bed. If Bay has daycare then i wake up at 8am and get him up, get his clothes for him to get dressed, get him breakfast, take him to school at 9am then generally come home make some toast and milo and check my emails, ohbaby and trademe then i jump in the bath and well yeah thats the jist of my mornings

I usually give up on the day around 9.30pm. That's when Al goes to work, so I like to stay awake until then to see him off the premises and make sure the house is all locked up properly.
Usually I'll have watched something on TV, although sometimes it's cleaning up around the house, folading washing that sort of thing (anything too energetic and I can't sleep afterwards!), or maybe reading a book for a bit.
I get up at 6am, feed the animals and then dash about like a looney getting ready for work
One good thing about my work moving to Papakura from Penrose ...I'll be able to stay in bed a bit longer!

*blushes* 7.30 bedtime, sometimes 8.30
Last thing is usually watching TV, sometimes feeding Jack
Get up when Jack wakes, usually around 7, but lately 8 (as I go back to bed after the earlier feed)

Unfortunately my bedtime is TV dependant Mon/Weds it's 10.30 bed time (watch Heroes and ER and they finish at 10.30). Tues and Thurs it's 9.30 cause there's nothing on that I watch. Friday's around 11, watch Rove and Nightline. Weekends, depends on what league games are on Sky. I think I watch too much tv .
Last thing I do, is pee, check the kids, remake our bed and set my alarm.
I'm up at 7.30, make mine and Conor's lunch, wake him up, have a shower, and leave by 8. Thankfully hubbie sorts Nyah out in the mornings

I got to bed about 10-10"30 and often read some textbooks - which puts me to sleep!
before I got to bed I usually wash my face and brush teeth...in winter I'll open the boys door as well.
First thing I do when i wake up is put on my dressing gown and get the boys bottles...hmmm, might prepare those the night before and save myself some morning hassles....smarty idea lizzle...thank you lizzle...will now stop referring to myself in the third person.

And what is the last thing you do at night before going to bed? Check OhBaby and emails, have a drink
And what time do you get up in the morning, and what's the first thing you do when you wake up? Procrastinate! LOL Usually I am woken up by the girls coming in about 6.30am (sometimes it's a 6am Kryssi feed though). Hannah and Briona share a room, so they come in together for early morning cuddles and we get up for breakfast about 7am.

bedtime depends on my shift. if a normal day.. would be around 10 - 11pm. if on afternoons' don't finish work till 11.30pm, so once home have a milo, talk to mike about our days, and catch up. usually check on here, and then go to bed about 12 - 12.30ish.
usually last thing i do is check door's locked etc and check kids and tuck em down, turn off ayja's night light, brush teeth, set alarm and tell mike not to be too far away... even though i know he will be, he's stupidly stupid and seems to have no idea about actually going to bed..lately has been about 2 - 3 am.. stays up doing assignments, considering he gets up so early for tech i think he's just silly.
Morning, again depends what shift, on a normal day, wake at quarter to 7, and push snooze, and again, and again, lol, usually woken by ayja going "muuummmy, dadddy paaaaaris!" sometimes will send kids off to watch telly for a few mins while i push snooze again, just the once, then get up and get kids ready for daycare etc. once they're gone check on here while having brekkie then get to the washing etc. If i've worked the night before, i check on here, have brekkie then go back to bed till about 11am when i get up have shower etc before work. If i am on a morning shift, i set alarm for 5.30am, get up have shower have brekkie, then wake kids at about 6.15 - 6.30, get em dressed and o their hair, then come with dad to drop me off then he goes home and give em brekkie before daycare.
We have a varible routine, but each different cirumstance has the set routine for it now so we have it downpacked to the minute! lol
