Early morning isn’t my thing since I can’t get in bad at the proper time! We have a new daily routine for girls. Previously we woke them up at 7:40AM, then dress them and drive to the kindergarten. They have breakfast there at 9AM.
Now. Our new routine is: we are waking them up at 6:40AM, they watch “Paw Patrol” (moring “screen time” and the same at night, no more!) to wake up, then I dress them up and brush hair and talk to them. Janis starts the car (winter here and we don’t have a garage) at 7:20AM and they are going to kindergarten at 7:35 AM.
Since that, I have to be up early and… the advantage of that is that I can see the early morning sunrise! 1st December sunrise was beautiful. Fresh snow on the trees and ground looked like a whipped cream! Everything so calm and peaceful…

I’ll keep you updated on how long it will take this year! 🙂 It’s not like all the time it is below zero, but it’s not warm either.

🙂 Last two years I keep in my mind that there won’t be a need for spring jacket until May.. Somehow it helps! Usually I need that jacked in the middle of April.. those who start to wait for Spring in February are mad, tired and freeze to death by mid of April 🙂

Yes, they are waking up better and feeling good! We have “screen time” only on morning and a bit at night! No need for more 🙂
