Are We There Yet?

How much sleep do your kids get?

This summer it has been exceptionally hard to get my kids (age 9 and 5) to bed at a decent hour. Some nights they are up until 10:30 pm and that just isn't good. It's hard because it doesn't get dark until 9 or later, we have baseball 2 nights a week until 7 or 7:30, my husband goes to work at 9pm so is running around getting amped for work and that doesn't lend well to calming kids down and there is no way to get showers/baths for everyone done at a reasonable hour and of course everyone is tired and cranky come morning time. NONE OF US ARE MORNING PEOPLE, especially me =) How about everyone else? Having a hard time rounding kids to bed?
