We're up at 4:45 on weekdays and J will have us up by 6am on weekends. I know the teenage years will be the complete opposite, but I want to sleep in, darn it!

Work days, I'm up at 5:30 praying she doesn't wake up while I get ready, if she doesn't I get her up at 6:15 and we leave at 6:45. On weekends, she wakes up anytime between 5:45-6:45, usually 6:30ish.
The big boys usually wake up between 6:15-6:30 and will go downstairs by themselves. If they hear the baby around 6:45, they'll go in and quietly entertain him while DH and I sleep 15 more minutes. It's great

Totally jealous. DD wakes between 5:30 and 6 every day -- no sleep in what so ever. Rarely we get 6:15. She goes to be at 7 and the only way she'd sleep later is with a later bedtime and I like having the evening so I guess that is the trade off since she just isn't a 12 hour sleeper.
Well, 4 days a week I get up at 5:30 and go for a run so that I can be back by the time DH has to leave for work. I usually lay back down when I get home.
The baby sleeps until 7:30 or 8, so that's what time we get up.

Augie is the same way, if he goes to bed before 8pm he will wake at 5am. But I like my morning sleep so we do our best to keep him up till 8pm.
Also, you moms with early risers, have you tried any sleep training to get them to sleep later?
Augie didn't start STTN until a month ago, so when he did, he'd sleep 8pm-5am. Well no way in heII am I getting up at 5am so I did sleep training. I felt bad and he was mad, but it only took 3 days and now he's been sleeping in till 7ish most mornings. If he wakes before 6:30, I go in, give him his nuk, put his blanket back on him and say "its still nigh nigh time" and leave. And he'll quietly fall back to sleep. Even today he woke at 6:15 and I thought for sure I'd be gettingup with him but he went back down for another 40 minutes!!

L usually sleeps until 7:30-8, depending on what time she went to bed the night before. Her bedtime varies since I mostly SAH and she doesn't need to be up at a certain time. Actually, last night she went to bed at 9:15 and slept until 9:45 (minus a random wakeup at 4:30). It was nice to be up before her and have a chance to eat breakfast and wake up.
Weekdays I am up at 5:40 and wake up the kids a little after 6 am. On the weekend I am up around 7. DD1 sleeps until 8 and DD2 will sleep until 9:00-9:30! I am lucky to have good sleepers.
On weekdays I'm up about 6:50. DD usually wakes up between 7-7:30 most days. On weekends I'll put her in bed with us and sometimes she (and I) will go back to sleep for another hour. And when I'm successful at making H feel guilty and getting up with her, I'll go back to sleep again until 9:30 or so.

I'm usually up between 6:20 and 6:35. DS will get up anywhere from 6 to 7... typically about 6:30.
On weekends, he will ususally sleep until 7. One amazing morning he slept until 8:30, I felt like a champ after that night of sleep!

Nonwork days, he usually wakes up on his own between 6:307:30...but yesterday he slept until 8:30!

Carter gets up around 8 (give or take an hour) and that's usually when I get up.
On days that I work, I get up at 3:30. It's a little rough...
