Are David and Henry too young? Too young for their own mini-fridge in their room? I'm thinking if I put one in and stocked it with milk, grapes, and string cheese, maybe they would leave me alone a little longer in the morning. You know, like maybe until after six?
It doesn't mean it's time to get up just because "it's light out".
I think I'd probably be more apt to create a "snack drawer" in the kitchen and allow them to get things in there than in a fridge in their room. I'm a nervous nelly though!
ReplyDeleteI have been SO tempted to put a TV in Hunter's room. I have held off, but I hear yah! What about leaving them a cup of cereal and a drink out on the counter and tell them where it is. Then maybe show them how to turn on the TV...or maybe they already know. If I have had a rough night, I get up, get cereal and a drink, turn on noggin and go back to bed! They usually leave me alone for a while...
ReplyDeleteIs it bad that while I was reading this story, I was looking for the like button?
ReplyDeleteUm yeah I feel ya! I TRY to remember to put cups in the fridge for them and then they have snacks galore they can reach...it worked this morning. Though I didn't sleep longer I did get to lay in the bed and wake up nice and slow-ish.
ReplyDeleteAnd LOL Amy!
