"Fall Back" does not equal one extra hour of sleep for those with young children. Fall Back means a regular night of sleep on the night of Fall Back. Then 1 less hour of sleep each night for the next 2-3 nights. Yep - even after pretending we were on Sunday's schedule on Saturday (meaning eating an hour later, napping an hour later, bath an hour later, bedtime an hour later), both kids still woke up at the same time, which equated to 5:45am. Ugh! Well, maybe after the full day of an hour ahead then they would get it. Fortunately Blythe did, but Ethan was up at 5:30 this morning. Not good! Actually Blythe was up at 11:30pm and came to our room to say she had a bad dream. Braden is still trying to convince me that we should close her door at night as if that might deter her from coming to our room. At least in the middle of the night we're able to take her right back to her room and she's fine. For now.
Tomorrow is election day, so make sure you go vote. Here's how Blythe feels about the subject. It's weird because we didn't prompt her to say any of this :)

I feel your pain with the new time! Jacob woke up at 5:30 Sunday morning which is usually his morning to sleep in.
