Once your kids are down for the night....
DS is in bed between 7:45-8:00. I am usually up till between 11-11:30. I will load the dinner dishes into the dishwasher, return phone calls to friends or my siblings that may have called me that day, watch a movie with DH, clean up DS's toy room, pay bills, play on the computer. It varies. Before I became PG with # 2, I would try to meet my girlfriend at the gym once a week for a 8:00 zumba class. I hope to start that up again when DS # 2 is a couple of months old.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
DD (20 months) stays up later than me! I go to bed by 9:30-10, and most nights she is still up. I make my DH deal with her!

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
I always stay up and watch a little TV and relax before bed, sometimes I'll even give myself a mani-pedi. My kids are on the go all day long so if I didn't relax then I never would! There are times where I need to go to bed right after they do, but they are in bed by 7:30/8 so that doesn't happen a lot.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
My kids are in bed by 7:45, we stay up until 10. So we get a good 2 hours of quiet time.

little guy goes down between 7.45 and 9 (depends on whether he napped in the afternoon). I usually have time for the gym/zumba or at a minimum watch at one of our dvr shows with DH. We try to have at least an hour together, I go to bed at 11.

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
DD goes to bed around 730-8.
We go to bed around 1030-11.
She's then up by 7ish so we still get our 8 hours.
Some nights she wakes during the night but it's not that frequent anymore.
We only have 1 though.

I'm impressed at how late everyone stays up! My kids are usually in bed between 9-9:30 & I'm in bed at 10, the latest... Usually like 9:35, lol. I need my sleep!!!
Same here - DS 2 goes down between 7-7:30 and DS 2 goes down closer to 9:30. I go to sleep shortly after (especially since DS 2 tends to get up before 6am - although lately, both boys have been getting up closer to 6:30 which is fabulous!)

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
DD usually goes to bed between 7:30 and 8. DH gets home around 7:40 most nights. Once DD is asleep, we first eat dinner while watching one of the bajillion shows on our DVR, then he cleans up while I prep DD's and my stuff for the next day. Then I get ready for bed and go to sleep by 10, or we try to watch more TV downstairs and I pass out on the couch within minutes.

Depends.
If I'm exhausted I sleep, if not I stay up. Just like normal (pre-AJ). Last night she and I went to bed at the same time, she actually tucked ME in !! lol I probably went to sleep in reality before she did (not the first time either).
Other nights I'm up to 1 or more.

I guess the reason why I go to sleep right after the kids is I feel that one of them is going to wake up in the middle of the night so I try to take in all the sleep I can get!

Re: Once your kids are down for the night....
My boys are in bed by 8:30. I stay up till about 11:30/12am.
DH take turns on who has to clean up the living room or kitchen so once I am done doing that then I am either watching tv, checking my emails or reading on the couch while DH watches his fishing or UFC programs.
