[quote=Anonymous]Our kids (3 and 5) are usually up around 5:30. The parent sleeping in usually sleeps about 2-2.5 hours and is up by 8. On days we don't have plans, the early rising parent goes back to bed for about 2-2.5 hours. Otherwise, that parent gets a nap in the afternoon whether or not the kids take a nap. Generally, the sleeping parent wakes up on their own at the right time. If the sleeping parent needs to be woken up for a good reason (need to get to soccer or a birthday party, way past time the agreed upon sleeping time), there needs to be coffee either brought up to bed or waiting downstairs. We have a box fan going and try to keep the kids out of the places that are too noisy so that parent can actually sleep - bonus points if you get the kids out of the house altogether.[/quote]
