How many parents are up right now waiting for the kiddies to go to sleep?

Any other parents on here staying up waiting on the kiddies to fall asleep?

Getting harder to stay up past midnight and then get up at the buttcrack of dawn as i get older....... I probably only have this year left of the youngest still believing maybe if i am lucky one more year, so i am enjoying it while it lasts.... But man it is hard to get up in the morning.........

Kids have been sleeping for a while now - just finished putting the rest of the presents under the tree - one is a new Bass for my Son - his first Bass - can't wait till he sees it tomorrow.

Everything is in place now - took few pics -replaced the Batteries in the Camera and set the Tripod up - Video Camera is charging. I have captured every Christmas to date on Video.

Just have to put some Milk out by the Cookies for Santa and I am off to sleep.

Merry Christmas Everyone - enjoy it - you only get so many : )

Kids are asleep and my wife is busy getting all Santa's presents under the tree. She'll be up pretty late and we'll be up very early.

MakiSupaStar · #17 12-24-2008, 11:51 PM

done and done. Drunk. Sleep now.

**smperry** · #18 12-24-2008, 11:59 PM

Finished putting together toys. Like my wife and daughter, I've got a cold, so off to sleep soon.

7 year old made it to 11:30. She's so excited. She tried so hard to keep her eyes open. She kept looking up saying "Daddy, are you excited?"

Man, I do hope she never stops getting this excited about Christmas.

It's a little after 1. She'll probably wake me and Mom up about 6:30 to 7:00 a.m.

while Im not a kid any more, I am the baby of my family, and at the moment, Im the only one still awake in the house.

Funny, when I was a kid, I was the one getting up at the butt-crack of dawn to wake up my family and open presents at 6 am. Now I'm usually the very last person to be woken up on christmas day(usually around 1 or 2 in the afternoon.)
