It’s obvious on this sleep graph where school started this August.
There’s a definite transition from the summer schedule of 6:50am weekday wake-up to the new school-year schedule of 6am wake-up (or thereabouts). That squiggly part in between was the week before school started, where there was no summer camp, so I took the week off to hang out and have some fun with Connor. Ah, that one glorious day when we slept past 8:30!
I find myself waking up at 6:30am on weekends now. I don’t get up and stay up, but I do wake up to go pee. Then I crawl back in bed and get another sleep cycle in before Connor comes to the door at 8:00 sharp and stage-whispers, “Good morning, Mommy!”
