She's 8. I have a very hard time getting her to bed on Christmas Eve. Good all year long, but that night she drags it on anywhere between 10pm and midnight. Yet somehow her little internal clock wakes her up with the first glimpse of the sun, around 6:00am.
We have a tradition in our house that once she gets in bed on Christmas eve, she can't get out until Santa's come. She'll know when he's arrived when she sees a candy cane inside the little snowman doorhanger that we place on her bedroom door. If it's not there, she has to get back in bed. That helps keep her in bed until a semi-decent hour. :) Last year i got lucky, and it was 7am when she came to me with the candy cane, wanting me to wake up.

my daughter is 5 1/2 and my son nearly 3 so they don't remember and have an early alarm clock yet! And they wait till mum and dad are up before they open anything! Yes we threaten them the night before!
Usually though they will wake about 6-6.30 most mornings christmas included.

Be grateful that you've a operating visitation agenda - heck of diverse households could be extremely blissful to have basically that. earnings from the time you've jointly and do not enable your own attitudes to come back by - adults imagine they do no longer even if the little ones do note and it robs the exhilaration out of the day leaving them conflicted of their loyalties. you're far too emotionally invested in this. The worst mistake a step mom can make. the newborn loves his mom and his father. once you experience you're being aggravated by her habit and in besides hint at this even if basically by concepts-set or remark - you change into the evil step mom and that i'll promise you it is going to likely be held on your account. Frankly I basically do no longer understand your severe reaction. no you'll rob you of your Christmas anymore than the Grinch could rob Christmas from the who's. for sure once you've your own priorities contained in the optimal side and performance lost the which technique of the day, then certainly you are able to have lost something far extra efficient than his exwife could ever scouse borrow from you. You on my own are responsible for you happiness and no individual even if faulty or recommend can take it from you. i comprehend deep down on your own coronary heart you comprehend this stuff and it truly is alright to experience annoyed and offended for the newborn that he can not have an proper day - even if it truly is all water below the bridge. You do your proper with the hand you're dealt. would you get exhilaration from this particular get jointly and season. If the ex is being petty, do not decrease your self to her factor. advantages,

Last year ours woke at about 4 am. It was an all-time record for our family. They are 10 & 6. That's the one day of the year that I can count on an afternoon nap from them!

I'm 15 and I get up at 5am on Christmas then I wake up my big bro (aged 18) and then my big sis (aged 16) we then wake up our parents! If I didn't wake up so early they'd all still be in bed at 11am!! It's one of the many reasons they love me! LOL!!!! (they don't get mad at me cause it's CHRISTMAS!!). The earliest I've woken at was 1am! (I only woke uo mum and then went to lie down in her and dad's bed but I didn't get back to sleep! but we didn't open the prezzies till 6am!)
