I have quite a variety in "preferred" wake times. My daughter (7 now) has been a natural night owl from the beginning. My husband worked second shift then so it worked perfectly, she stayed up late with us and then slept in until 10:30-11.
However, when my boys came along they are both morning people more. My youngest is the worst, as he prefers to be up with the sun (around 7 right now). My middle boy would sleep until 8 or 8:30 if the youngest one would let him. They share a room, and once my youngest (2) is awake he starts saying "bubba, bubba, bubba(what he calls my middle)" at the top of his lungs.

For some reason my kids get up early on weekend mornings and come downstairs to start on the computer or throw in a video. Sometimes as early as 6 am.
Yet, on school days I have to go into each bedroom at 7:30 and actually pull off blankets and turn on the lights to get them up and going.

usually my 2 toddlers one is going 5 and one is going 2, they both wake up at 8 til 9am in the morning. since my nanny always always watch operas in the night that is why my 2 boys cant sleep. i just cant tell my nanny to turn it off, because its the only time she gets rest from taking care of my 2 boys. anyways i just wish my 2 boys will sleep early so they can wake up and see the morning sun. Godbless!

My daughter is usually up between 7:30 & 8:30, even though she's in bed around 8:30pm every night.
She's only 9 1/2 months old though so it's bound to change!

My nine month old wakes up at 4:30 am, my 10 year old son wakes between 6-7 am, my 11 year old son around 8:30 am and my 12 year daughter wakes up at 10:00 am, but I have no problem getting her out of bed if need be.
