My kids have never been hard to wake up. I just open their doors and pull the cover back and tell them to wake up. I love looking at my boys first thing in the morning. They are like little angels....then turn into fighting devils shortly after.

I was a nanny for a family with Four girls for the youngestI would walk into her room rub her back give her a goodmorning kiss and just talk to her about what we would do for the day..and what clothes we should pick out together.For the second youngest it was pretty much the same..I learned if ya wake em up to fast all hell just might break lose..
For the oldest she had a prob with getting up in the mornin..lol..and yes sometimes i did just pull the covers off and tell her to get up..one minute she would hate me and next she would love me...lol..the ages where 2,3,7,14months...a challenge at times but i loved it. For the younger ones it was not hard to wake them up on most days..
The only days that had me stressed where schoold days lol..ya never know when they might wake up in a bad mood.

I've always had to wake my daughter up - I just go in and turn on the lights and start singing some stupid song....poor kid! I guess she got sick of my singing because she now gets herself up!!

my older one wakes with his alarm, i never have to worry that he won't. now the younger one i have to practically drag him out the bed, sometimes i get an ice cold towel and wash his face and he hates that, but it gets him up.

hahahha, my kids tell me they are cold (no matter how hot it is) so i tell em "hurry and get dressed so you won't be cold!"

it works every time! lol


hell my parents never gave me the chance to NOT wake up! lol they jus drug me outta bed by my ear, even if i was laying there awake..... if i wasn't up half dressed, my poor ear got the raw end of the deal! lol

I flip on their light, tell them it's time to get up & them pull the blankets off & tickle them! (I'm a cruel mama, I know) My 4 yr old though, he needs to be taken out of his bed cause he won't get up. I always hear "Weave me alone, I'm sweepin!" in that whiney sleepy voice. So then I bounce on his bed till he sits up or when that doesn't work, I just pick him up & set him on the floor. lololol

You moms are so cute!
My kids love mama's bed. If I need them to wake up, I just ask them to come see me, and they race right in!

oh I guess I'm one of the cruel ones.. I flip on the light and start my "GOOD MORNING GOOD MORNING GOOD MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORNING, IT'S A HAPPY DAY TODAY!" They both growl at me and i usually have to drag the covers off of them (my five yr old usually holds onto them, and the kid goes in the floor, too!)... What can i say... if I have to be awake before I wanna be, EVERYBODY has to be awake before they wanna be!

My daughter wakes up to an alarm clock. After she gets up, she gets dressed and starts the coffee. Then she goes into her brothers room and tells him to get up, if he doesn't get up right then she kisses his forehead until he does and if that doesn't work she tickles him. After that she makes me a cup of coffee and sit and talks to me until time to catch the bus. My son always has a hard time waking up on school days but on weekends or holidays when there's no school he is up before everyone else is running around the house trying to find some one to wake up and do something with him.lol
