Bunkbeds


The dreaded day has come. The girls and I took apart the crib. We've known it was coming, but still, who wants Griffin out of his cage?



Seriously though, Mok and Pok got the boys a set of new bunkbeds for Christmas this year. Griffin was getting ready to be out of the crib, and Cam is getting ready to use it, so we knew they were a necessity.

We set them up about a month ago and still had the crib set up too. I wanted G-man to get used to them before he actually had to sleep in them. A few days ago he started jumping out of his crib. It was pretty funny and we laughed, but he only did it after a nap. This morning however, Ryan and I were awakened at 6:30 by a cute little two year old standing next to our bed saying, "I get out...I stay up."

And with that, Griffin is done with the crib.



He likes his new bed. He has napped in it a few times and done well. Hopefully that will hold true for night time too. I can't imagine all the destruction he could cause if he escaped at night and we didn't know.

(And no, I don't think a gate at the door will work...this is Griffin we're talking about people. A gate is child's play for him:)


The boys room is pretty small, but it seems really big with the crib out of the room. (It is going into our room for Cameron...Unless someone wants to come and finish our basement :)




Right now we just have an old dresser and random blankets on the beds. I think we will decorate this spring. I'm thinking a matching dresser, some bean bags for a reading area, a rug to play toys on, matching blankets, and of course, paint.

That's a project for another day though.



I love my little trouble maker!
