Bigger Girl Bed!

When it comes to beds we take baby steps here. Some go from the crib to a "big" bed - whether it is a twin or in some cases even bigger. Brooke went from the crib to a toddler bed. She was always such a peanut, plus she had to move from the crib at 19 months, so we liked the toddler bed. And she still fits perfect in it.

But then, Kevin had a co-worker ask him if he was interested in some nice wooded bunk beds - with mattresses (that are in very good shape), for a very reasonable price. And luckily, the co-worker could wait until we got our tax return! So, we acquired these beds. For now, we are keeping only one of the "big beds" in Brooke's room, along with the toddler bed for some day down the road when it will be Lorelei's turn to occupy.

Anyhow, the new bed is a hit. Brooke talked about it all week and how she would help daddy make it! And both girls love jumping on it! (Not that we would ever allow that!) And I think it fits perfect in the room.

As the mommy, it is both exciting and sad to see my oldest little girl growing up and graduating up to the next size bed. And don't even get me started on how I feel while just reading about the registration procedures for pre-school in September!!!
