daylight savings time is dumb

I've never been a fan of daylight savings time. What's the point? It just messes everything up. People get confused about what time it really is. And, sure, our phones and computers change time automatically, but what about the clocks in ovens, microwaves, cars...changing car clocks is the worst! And having a baby makes the time change even more annoying. Liam never got the memo and his nighttime schedule has been all outta whack. Poor guy has no idea what's going on.

So this is just my little rant. Abolish daylight savings time! It's dumb.

I love this guy. Even with all the lack of sleep.

I agree. Let's keep the time as nature intended.

Last year we started moving Lane's naps, bedtime, and mealtimes 5 minutes later every day for the two weeks before Daylight Saving Time would happen. It really helped and when it came time for the actual day, we were all just glad that bedtime was at a normal time again and not so late...but it was worth it to not be super messed up! And 5 minutes a day seemed to be a good time...not enough to really mess their schedules up but just enough to help the transition. If you haven't figured anything out yet, try it out. (It didn't work so well this year, fyi, but last year it worked great!)

And I agree...it's all just dumb. But I think we should stay on Daylight Saving Time and never come off of it, not the other way around (I like the hour of light in the evening, not the morning!)
