My friends laugh at me because I let my boys tell me when its time for bed! Most nights when its their bedtime and Im still up, they will jump off the couch and sit at the bottom of the stairs that go up to the bedrooms and watch me. So when I get up and shut the light off, they jump up one step and continue watching me (keep in mind I KNOW they want to go to bed) So I say to them "Wanna go to bed??" and they FLY up the rest of the stairs, so I walk up and they are turning circles in front of my closed bedroom door. I open the door and both run & jump onto the bed. I go into the bathroom brush my teeth, then come out, go into the room, shut the door and get in bed and one curls up beside my head on the left of my pillow with his head touching mine and the other noses his way under the covers to lay between my legs!

This is our routine EVERY night!!! hahaha sometimes I go to bed at like 9pm bc they want to go to bed and Im not doing anything more than watching tv which I can do in bed. They do this in front of other people also! Like when they are ready they are ready!!! 'MOM.... TIME FOR BED!! NOW!!!" haha I need to get pics!

Anyone else's babies have a nighttime ritual they follow without your help?
