Shuffle Saturday: Waking up on the Weekends.

Why is it on our one day of the week to be lazy and sleep in, your kid wakes up earlier than they usually do?

This statement rings so true though. Most kids have this six sense that you need and can FINALLY sleep yet they still choose to wake up earlier than any other day of the week. Mine does this like clockwork every weekend. Not just crawl in bed to cuddle you awake but really, hyper, let's play mommy and daddy awake.

Then every other day of the week that you need to get up and get out of the house at a timely manner, you guessed it, they are still sleeping. Some of these mornings, I can even open the door, turn the light on, and move around in the room before Judah wakes up.

So how do you adjust to the fact that Saturday morning kids are early risers? Perhaps this is why our own parents allowed us to watch hours of Saturday morning cartoons when we were little.

Maybe date night should not be on Friday nights. The baby sitters are really putting the kids to bed too early for some free time while you stay out late on the town. Just a guess. But then what date night.

Perhaps Friday nights are so low key and after a long week you all are lazy. This means that the kid does not let all that excess energy and saves it for Saturday morning.

Well whatever the reason, we are stuck getting up early on Saturday mornings. My husband says save the babysitter for Saturday morning when you want to sleep. Any thoughts? What do you do?
