Once your kids are down for the night....
Do you stay up and have your alone time? No matter how hard I try to stay up, once they go down I wind up knocking out. I just can't keep my eyes open. So basically once my DD2 goes to bed, I do too. How about you?

Once your kids are down for the night....
If I'm off, I try to scatter my time so I have some alone time during the day. Breaks, if you will.
I put kids in one of their rooms to play together, have them color in living room. I catch up on chores or surf web and have a cup of coffee. I think it's good to have some breaks during day, only if its a half hour here or there.
But once kids hit the bed, I usually watch tv until I fall asleep.

Yes, definitely. All the kids are down by 8:15 at the latest. My typical bedtime is 11...although most nights I fall asleep on the couch.  I do not work though...

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
Yup. My boys are out by 7pm. DH and I usually have dinner together, maybe some wine and tv time. Maybe I try and fit in some exercise before dinner. Usually upstairs in bed around 9ish and out around 10ish. Give or take.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
My kids are asleep by 7 the latest.
Some night DH and I have dinner alone after they go to bed, sometimes we eat as a family.
I usually go to bed aroudn 10 or 11.
I try to get a few things done around the house.
Some night I have paperwork to do for work. Some nights DH and I watch tv together.
I am 34 weeks pregnant so lately I have been a little lazy and going to be a bit earlier.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
I would be in bed way learlier if i I was not pumping. That being said the door is closed to the twins room at 7:45. I get into bed at 10:30 ish. I clean the kitchen, switch the laundry, prep for the next day and then pump at 9. Once I'm weaned I can not wait for the night that I can go to bed at 8!

DS goes to sleep sometime between 8-9 and depending on whether or not I worked that day (up at 5am) I go to sleep 9:30-11. And that spent with a mix of cleaning from the day, prepping for the next day and maybe a tv show.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
My DD is in bed asleep at 8. DH and I hang out at night. He will usually fall asleep on the couch between 10:30 and 11 and I will stay up watching tv or doing things around the house until 12-12:30. Then I wake up DH and take him to bed with me.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
I go to bed pretty late. My DH works alot so I'm basically on my own 24/7 and almost always with at least one kid. That is the only time I get to clean, do laundry, emails, etc...
