The Bunk Bed

The anticipated arrival of the soon to be newest member of our family who remains completely nameless has brought lots of room changes for our home. Taylor and Ashlyn decided they wanted to share a room. For the last week we have painted and transformed a room into "The Girl's Room." I'm sure you will find a No Boys Allowed sign on the door but that doesn't include Dad and I remind them that is doesn't include Andy either =) The new room is now complete with a bunk bed which the kids think is simply awesome!

Impatiently (putting it lightly) waiting for Dad to finish putting the thing together.
Taylor excited to be the 1st one up.
Side note: Yes the room is GREEN! Yes it looks almost florescent and might possibly light up the hallway. Yes I debated and DEBATED about repainting. Surprisingly once all the furniture and decor went in, I really liked it!


With this transition we were worried about how Andy would handle being alone in his room for the first time in 3 years without his little sidekick. At first he was convinced he would be sleeping in Ashlyn's bed with her. I got a little nervous but it didn't take too long and he retreated back to his own room.
We are on Day 4 of no crib for Ash. The transition hasn't gone as smoothly as Andy's but definitely not as bad as when Taylor made the switch and everyday gets a little better.
More pictures of the new rooms to follow once they are officially complete. I have high hopes to have all 3 rooms completed this week. Here's to high expectations!

Update: I wrote this post a couple days ago, my high expectations have been shattered by end of pregnancy EXHAUSTION! Maybe next week......
