What time do you go to bed? And wake up?
Comments from friends and other folks on FB about being up way past their bedtimes, etc., make me wonder - what time do you go to to bed? What's your normal get up time (when you stop hitting snooze and actually get up)? How many hours of sleep do you get each night?

Re: What time do you go to bed? And wake up?
It's been changing every few months, but lately I'm in bed by 9:30. I first wake up sometime between 5 and 6 (completely dependent on DS) but if it's not close to 6 when he wakes, i bring him in our bed and get him to at least lay down, if not snooze, until 6. So, somewhere around 8 hours of sleep each night. On work days, we leave the house at 6:30.
But we lost power last night around 10pm. So, my shower by candlelight was then, and I was in bed and asleep by... umm, I don't know... 11? Shannon woke up twice to the pitch black house shortly after my shower, and needed comforting. Power came back on around 1am.
to answer my own questions:
I usually go to bed between 11pm-midnight on weeknights, and my alarm goes off around 6:25 and I hit snooze forever until I finally drag my butt up around 6:55. On weekends, I usually go to bed between midnight and 1am and then sleep until the kids let me, usually around 8ish. But we also alternate weekend days to sleep in- DH gets to sleep in on saturday, I get to sleep in on Sunday. Best part of being done breastfeeding is the sleeping in finally ;-)
My kids usually are quiet all night, but if they do wake I apparently am the only one that hears them ;-)

i am usually in bed by 10pm and waiting to watch the final weather report on the news. I get up when my husbands alarm goes off at 5:45 but usually fall back asleep until 6:30 when the kids get up.
But my new routine with the baby is to be in bed by 9pm and up every 1.5-2 hours all night long and up for the day at 6:30.
I am in bed no later than 9:30.During the week, I get up at 6:15 to workout for an hour. I then either get Vera ready if she is up, or take a shower myself and get her up after I get out. I am usually out of the house by 8:15, I am at work by 9am....(all while my husband snoozes!)
On the weekends, I am in bed no later than 10:30, usually earlier and I sleep until Vera lets me, usually around 7:30, maybe close to 8 if I am really lucky.
