At 5 after midnight, Willie gets concerned about Barney and steps all over my face to go to the stairs so he can go check on his bud.
At 12:30 Barney climbs stairs and gets back in bed, Willie can't seem to use them in the dark, so he sits and cries until I go and pick him up. Anna sits in the living room on door duty and growls at two boys for running around.
12:35 Once back in bed, Willie stomps all over my head and face until he gets back into his sleep spot and digs around for about 5 more minutes.
Around 3:00, above routine is repeated.
Around 4:30 Anna's door duty ends and she comes to bed. She won't use stairs in the dark either. So she growls until hubs puts her in bed.
5:00 time to get up. Hubs and I drag ourselves to kitchen, while 3 amigos relax in bed.
How do I fix this? |
Wow.....
This is every night? You've redefined slave to Yorkies...haha...
I'm guessing you don't work during the day? I only endured the sleepless nights during puppy potty training, but knowing/hoping it'd end after a couple/few months. I can't imagine how I'd handle this nightly when I have to get up at 6am to get ready for work.
So, they don't sleep together? I dunno, I'd be tempted to be very strict and set them straight right now (like crate them or something and making sure they become super exhausted by your bedtime), rather suffer a few sleepless nights/weeks than to have no sleep for forever!
