For the last few weeks Jay has been waking the house between 6 and 6.15am every morning. The result has been a fairly grumpy household, as the rest of us just need more sleep than that.

Ray has been very teary, Hubby and I have definately not been in tip top form, but of course Jay will fall asleep by midday and can't be woken, so he ends up the only one who is well rested.

We have tried cutting out his daytime nap and putting him to bed a bit later, but nothing works, he still gets up at the crack of dawn.

Yesterday the clocks went forward an hour. But as Jay and Ray had quite full day we put them to bed at 7.30 as normal (even though technically it was 6.30 by their body clocks). Jay went promptly to sleep and I was expecting to hear from him at dawn this morning, but the cry didn't come. In fact at 7.10am Ray came and woke me up as she needed to use the toilet.

Ray and I then went downstairs, got some breakfast and watched some TV. Jay woke at 7.30am and baby D didn't rise until 8.30.

Ha Ha, we fooled his body clock! He thought it was 6.30, but I got an extra hour in bed. I just hope this continues. He is a sucker for routine, so fingers crossed we may actually get some decent sleep around here!
