Some people think I'm weird that the kids go to bed so early but it's a routine that works for us. Some of my friends are still out with their little ones at 10pm! Nope. Night-time is ME time. lol. I need a couple of hours to watch tv or read before I hit the hay too (which is usually by 10pm since the kids get up by 6am).
