We take DD up to bed about 6.45-7pm depending on how tired she is. She's normally asleep by 8pm at the latest unless she's had a nap when it's nearer 8.45 :roll:
She's generally up about 7.30-8am, sometimes later.
I'd prefer her to go to bed a bit earlier as it's hard getting up and ready for work early enough, but DH and I are often not home until 6pm so it's hard to change the evening routine by much either. Being pregnant I've got lazy too about getting up early myself, but once I'm back at work and DD is at pre-school I'll be aiming for a 7.30 bedtime for both of them I think.

Pretty much the same here. Bedtime starts at 6:30pm and it's usually lights out by 7. Any later and they turn into devil children :lol:

Nathan doesn't go up to bed until 8 as I don't tend to get home until after 7. He's usually asleep by 8.30-not tonight tho! He's up at 6.30-7 but tends to have 1-1/2 hour nap in the day

Mine both go up at 7.20/7.30 so that H can be asleep by 8. He loves his sleep and most mornings I have to wake him at 8 to get up for school!!

Jas will put a DVD or music on and drifts off around 8.30/9 but she's in bed and her body is resting so that's fine by me.

H can't go up any earlier as dp doesn't get in from work till 6.45pm and they need their time with him.

In the lighter holidays - Easter , June half term , summer break - H will stay out playing till around 8/8.30 then up to bed sleep for 9 although sometimes he's still happy going up at normal time. Jas is allowed to play out till that time then in to sleep. Neither get up before 8am at earliest in hols so still a good amount of sleep.

Grace goes to bed at about 8pm but she is in bed and just settles and usually goes straight to sleep. Kieran and Anna go to bed at 8:30, if there is no school they are allowed to play out a bit later than normal but that is a rare occasion x

My two go to bed between 6pm - 7.30pm. The time all depends on whether DS has had a nap, or if they're both tired. Today DS had an hour but wanted to go to bed at 6pm when DD asked to sleep. They we're both flat out within 10 minutes.
Regardless of what time they go to bed, they always wake between 6-7am.

DD (19mths) goes to bed at 7.30 and DS3 (4) goes just after her.

DS1 (9) and DS2 (7) go to bed once DD and DS3 are asleep, normally 8 - 8.15 although it can be as late as 8.30.

Iris and Callum are both in bed with lights out between 7.00-7.30pm (usually closer to 7.00). It normally takes them less than 10 minutes to drop off. Callum sleeps until about 7am. Iris tends to wake up when DH gets up for work at about 6.30am.

Nathan goes up at 6ish and is in bed by 6.30/7pm at the latest. He's usally asleep by 7.30 latest but the clock changes have messed it all up as it's still light. Did last year too but he'll get used to it again.
