I seriously am a morning person. I love everything about it! I am usually the first up, making coffee and puttering around the house?
That being said, oh how I love to wake to the aroma of coffee made by someone else!
What about you? are you first? last? or who is first?
 
I am second - DH leaves for work an hour before anyone else is up. His workday starts at 6 am, and he is seriously NOT a morning person, so I generally wait until he is out the door to wake up, because I am chatty and he definitely is not ;) He doesn't drink coffee, and I generally don't have time for coffee until the kids are dropped off and I am on the way to or at work.
 
I'm first since I get up at 2am for work....and coffee is a must at that time of the morning..love when the house is quiet and I have it all to myself.
 
With the exception of break weeks (like this week... yay for fall break!) I'm ALWAYS the first one up. Fortunately I don't like coffee so I don't have to worry about waking up to the smell. ;)
 
During the week DH is up and out the door before I wake up (He leaves here just after 5). On weekends I usually wake up first. Occasionally, DD will wake up before me, but that's not super common.
 
I'm the first one up. I don't drink coffee, but when hubby is waking up at home I make a pot for him. If I forget to put the coffee on, one of the kids will get it going. Hubby is the last one up even though he is usually the second one out the door.
 
I'm the first up and prepare the breakfast for my children. My hubby wakes up few minutes later when he goes yo work the week.
I don't drink coffee, I don't like it. I love drink my chocolate like kids, lol
 
I'm first on school days so that I can get up and get the kids moving. Neither of them are morning people (not that I am either), so it takes quite a lot some days, and they both require a bit of prodding to keep them on track. DS has even gotten into the habit of going back to bed after his shower. :eyeroll I've offered to wake him later, since he has plenty of time, but he likes having that little nap. :p

DH gets up in the middle of all the chaos. I start his coffee (I don't drink it), but he usually remembers to set it up the night before so that all I have to do is flip a switch. I usually only see him passing through to grab his stuff on the way out.

On the weekends I'm still usually the first one up, since I'm just used to waking up earlier. Although once in a while DD will get up early. DS never wakes up on his own. I swear he would be nocturnal if he could. :nope
 
Ugh... I am not a morning person at all, but during the week I have to be to work at 6:30 so I'm always the first one up and am usually out the door before anyone else gets up. On the weekends, my youngest son is always the first up and I'm usually last... at least on Saturday when we don't have sports (rare). Sundays, I'm usually the 2nd one up after my son.
 
I'm always first. I love waking up early in the quiet house, puttering and relaxing with my coffee before the hubbub starts.
 
I am 1st or 2nd ... if my son gets up on time, he is #1 at 5:15 am. I am his back up at 5:30 incase he hits snooze too many times. this week he is 0 for 3. LOL. Sometimes he makes the coffee first, if not I will do it. I seriously hate waking up that early ... but after 5 or 10 minutes I am good to go ...
 
Nobody is a morning person in my house. So, it's always between me and Bianca for first to wake up. We have been in bed up until 11am.
 
2nd one up most days and quite resentful - am so not a morning person - luckily no one else in the family is either so no guilt anywhere...
 
I am usually the last one up!!

DH gets up about 5:00 and heads to work (in his office in the next room, LOL), then the two older boys get up and go downstairs, the little guy is usually in our room already (he likes to sneak in during the night) or he comes in in the morning.....then I finally roll out of bed around 7:30!!

The first thing I do is grab my cup and get coffee!!

First one up on weekdays and Last one on weekends! I work fulltime and DH is retired. And I must have fresh-brewed coffee in the mornings.
 
I'm a morning person. I LOVE the quiet house before everyone else wakes up. Just drinking my coffee and browsing the internet... Love it!
