Now, my body has adjusted and I love it! I'm now to the point where I can go to bed at 10/10:30 and still be able to stroll out of bed at 4:45am! :o) Every now and agian, if I've showered the night before, have my lunch already to go and can eat breakfast at work, I stoll out of bed at 5:00. Believe it or not, that 15 minutes makes the world of difference! I have to leave my house at 5:40 in order to get there on time.<br />Hang in there, it will get easier!

You'll get used to it... just get to sleep early. It's hard sometimes when I get home and I'm tired... and have to find the energy somewhere to be enthusiastic and playful. But it works!

Would it be an option to take only 30 minutes so that you can go into the office at 6:30 instead of 6:00?????

I deal with a lot of students, so I don't even get to work till 10am (of course that means I stay till 6 or 7pm - which is going to be a huge issue when we get knocked up!)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13399272507293281423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570553510339407807.post-52050387833857422322010-01-12T04:41:21.193-08:002010-01-12T04:41:21.193-08:00Great quote at the end...that IS very early...kudo...Great quote at the end...that IS very early...kudos for making it and good luck through the transition.

My day flies by, but by the time I get home at night with the two boys, I'm exhausted, but have to be on my game because I want to get as much time in with them as I possibly can. It's an adjustment and I hope it goes smoothly for you!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07107392746334641930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570553510339407807.post-5261507124030300102010-01-11T23:39:35.642-08:002010-01-11T23:39:35.642-08:00hang in there! you Both will get used to the routi...hang in there! you Both will get used to the routine. she'll adjust just fine.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11518577303527493332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570553510339407807.post-68215512133736259092010-01-11T21:24:54.736-08:002010-01-11T21:24:54.736-08:00Good luck.

When I read your first paragraph about Lucy being snuggled next to you when it was time to wake up, I was thinking "man, she's lucky...Zoe wakes up when I get out of bed." And then I read the second paragraph about a fully awake baby and hubby at 5:15. :-)<br /><br />Anyhow, I digress. It sounds like this could be a great arrangement once everyone adjusts. Good luck once again!FSDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589454118258995448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570553510339407807.post-3760946156957737562010-01-11T21:02:26.961-08:002010-01-11T21:02:26.961-08:00It will get easier!
