Totally depends on how much sleep I got. This morning I was super grumpy, almost to the point of tears. E was up almost every hour all night, and me with him. I pulled myself together by the time I went and got him, though. I just let him cry for a bit while I used the bathroom, brushed my teeth and hair, splashed some water on my face and downed most of my Nalgene bottle.

D is really cranky if he has to wake up earlier than 10:30 (the earliest he works is noon and he often works very late hours). He claims that when I go back to work in a few weeks he'll get up with us at the crack of dawn, and then go back to bed, but I'll be shocked if he does.

E usually wakes up crying, but we no longer have a monitor in his room and he's two closed doors away, and he's my alarm clock at the moment, so he really needs to cry for me to hear him. But it takes a few minutes of holding and talking and kissing him before he's happy. He sometimes wakes up happy from a good nap, though.

generally we're all pretty ok in the mornings, DS especially!

I'm not grumpy, but my husband is sometimes groggy - he needs a bit of persuading. M is hit or miss, sometimes she wakes in a great mood and other times she wakes up crying.

I'm the grump. Dh is a morning person, I'm not, so it works out ok- he makes the coffee, brings the baby to me in a clean diaper while I wake up a bit. LO is usually pretty happy.

@IRunForFun: my sister is like that too! Never slapped any of us but she will yell at you, like Yes I know it's time to get up just leave me the f alone! Then you leave her and go back in half an hour and she is sound asleep with no memory of the outburst.

Now we tend to bring babies in to wake her since you can't yell at a baby.
