And it stinks. That's pretty much the feeling around the Costello house these days. The boys are definitely ready for school to be done. Even Jamie routinely sleeps past 7 these days and is generally in a real grump before school. Mondays and Tuesdays are the worst. Connor will just keep sleeping until the point when we have to absolutely get him to get ready for school. Even when he's tired if you gently pat Jamie on teh shoulder he'll wake up and get out of bed. Connor will just sigh and roll over. So you've got to get more assertive and that just annoys him, so eventually he'll get up, but usually with a few choice comments to register his displeasure.
A couple of weeks ago, things kind of came to a head with this. I did the honors for two or three days in a row and got rewarded with a very angry bunny. He wouldn't even talk to me, just giving me this scowl (a version of his old angry dinosar look) as he trudged off for breakfast. Later as he complained about having to put shoes on (cruelty!), Sarah asked him to please try and be a helper and not be so upset. At which point he burst out, "WELL, DADDY KEEPS WAKING ME UP WHEN I'M STILL TIRED!!!"
