Bunk Beds

The big day has come. Jack and Sadie are sleeping in their own beds tonight. J. and I were a bit terrified to have move on from cribs. Sleep is so tenuous as it is. We were prodded on by the cribs beginning to fall apart from so much wear and tear. It was a bit frightening when J. had to demolish the cribs to be able to get them out the door of the nursery. Then the beds were so hard to put together they were not ready for bedtime last night, but tonight every thing was in order and the kids went to bed (after some fighting and pleading) in their new beds.

Jack (AKA the Climber) had to have the top bunk of course. It took a bit of convincing to help him to understand that it was best to use the ladder when climbing to the top bunk. The ladder makes it a bit too easy for Jack, but for tonight at least he humored us by using it. We're crossing our fingers for a restful night for the whole family. We'll see how it goes...
