Late to Bed, Early to Rise

This was my bed this morning and 6:45 am.  Thankfully, Caleb's first words this morning were "Daddy . . daddy" - - - music to my ears!  Brandon got Caleb up and put him in bed with me then he promptly jumped on my stomach and asked for chocate milk .  . can't quite get the chocolate word yet.  About 30 seconds later I hear the little pitter patter of Sarah coming into our room; I at least got a good morning kiss before the request for chocolate milk and cartoons!

I guess 6:45 am isn't too early, but it's the summer and Brandon was really hoping the kids would sleep to at least 8am considering they went to bed around 9pm the previous evening.  Generally our bed time is around 8pm, but the kids were playing so nice last night I stretched the time to 9pm thinking they would sleep in for Brandon.  I thought wrong!  I'm hopefully a little smarter tonight . . . after dragging them away from a beautiful July evening for a bath and snack I managed to get them in bed by 8:30pm!
