With the upcoming arrival of baby #7, we’ve had to make some bedroom/sleeping adjustments. For about 3/4 of a year, Leia (our fiesty, very smart and mischevious three year old) has been sleeping in our room so we could, literally, keep an eye on her. She is the type of child who does everything you least expect and nothing you anticipate … oh, the stories I could tell you! However, with baby coming into our room soon, we needed to rethink our sleeping situation as baby will be sleeping in our room and Lavender is still (of course) sleeping in the crib in the nursery.
The three biggest girls sleep together in one room. Adjacent to their room is the “library” – which also connects to a bathroom. Strange setup – but we live in an old, old home and nothing is ‘normal’. We were unsure about putting Leia in the same room as the bathroom, access to a little porch and access to the big girls room and a secret staircase (man, that’s a lot of exits she could use!) … but so far, so good. Just this week, we put her new (to her) bed into her room {she’s been sleeping in a trundle bed which her daddy made}, which she shares with our five year old. It’s fantastic – she loves it, she feels so great having her own bed and it’s adorable seeing the two girls together in their room …
Let the party begin.
