Around 6:30am every morning we are woken up by Paige...and almost every morning it's the same routine, which I love. Doug gets up and gets her out of bed. She "sleeps" with us for approximately 45 seconds...and then wants to play. Hiding under the covers works for awhile, and she might be happy for another minute if we talk to her about her dreams. But then it starts "Daddy shave, Daddy shower?". Over and over and over again... and then Mommy gets to stay in bed while Daddy and Paige go into the bathroom.
After fighting over using Daddy's toothpaste, they proceed to brush teeth together, with P standing on a little stool in front of Daddy. Then, Daddy puts it 'tacts (contacts) on, as Paige calls them and then he shaves. The whole time Paige is standing there watching him in awe :) Then she sits on the stool talking to him while he takes a shower.
When they come out of the bathroom I usually have my eyes closed like I've been asleep. Doug probably thinks I like this diversion because I can sleep for an extra 15-20 minutes. But I don't think he knows that I can see them in the opposite mirror and watch them adoringly every second...

That is sweet - cherish every minute because in a twinkling of an eye your daughter will be 30 years old!! BTW, the Heather I've known for a long time would take full advantage of that 15-20 minutes in the sleep mode...LF
