Shane spent all day getting it ready while I washed sheets, bedding, blankets and kept the kids mostly out of the room. On top of assembling 2 beds, which took quite a while, Shane also had to dis-assemble 3 cribs and re-assemble one...I wanted to keep the nicer of the 3 cribs for Jaron, so Jaron got a newish crib too. It was a long day but finally we got it all done.
I didn't let the girls see their beds until they were all made and they were sooo excited to walk in and see their big girl beds.
Overall it hasn't really been that bad of a transition. They got up the very first night which was pretty funny cuz I could hear them in the hall saying 'shhh be quiet' like we wouldn't know they were up. Aria fell out of the bed the first night but since then neither of them have fallen out. It takes them a little longer to fall asleep and they wake up a little earlier but stay in bed so I just let them talk in there. I did have to take a pack n play in their room the other night when they wouldn't fall asleep and they went hysterical at the thought that they couldn't sleep in their big girl beds. They went right to sleep after that threat and have every night since then! :)
They look so cute and grown up in their big girl beds now and I think they like feeling like big girls as well.
Although I'll miss walking in to this greeting...

Their beds are so cute. And I am totally laughing about the "greeting" you got when they were in their cribs! Ha!
They are growing up so fast! Such cute beds and it sounds like they love it. And yes, I was laughing too at the "greeting" you'll miss in their cribs, and I was also laughing that they're walking down the hall saying, "Shhh, be quiet!" :)
