The Big Announcement


And now... the big announcement. Malachi, Madelynn, and Aiden are sleeping in big kid beds now! No more cribs and crib tents!!!

The kids and I were at Toys R Us on Saturday while Josh was getting fitted for his tux for Bryan's wedding. The two stores were in the same complex and we thought the kids would enjoy the toys more. I was looking at summer/water toys and Aiden says to me, "car" and points to a higher display of toddler beds. There was one of Lightning McQueen that he seemed to like. Anyways, we talked to the kids about having big beds and no more cribs. They seemed on board with it so when we got home we made all three cribs into toddler beds. The loved them instantly.

Now, we thouht we'd be in for a few rough nights, but...THEY ARE ALL STAYING AND SLEEPING IN THEIR BEDS!!! Can you believe it? How lucky are we???? They are still sleeping the same amount too. We just remind them to stay in their beds when we tuck them in and they do it. When they wake up, they all have been climbing into Aiden's bed and reading books together. It's so cute. I'm very proud of my big kids and how well they're doing sleeping in their toddler beds.

  1. That's awesome! Congratulations, Mom and Dad. I have to say, I did shed a tear for how big your babies are getting. :(
