Big Kid Beds

This weekend Nathan and my dad changed Liam and Olivia's cribs into toddler beds.  You should have seen them when they came into their room to check it out!  They both came running in and went to lie down right away.  Then they started screaming and giggling and kicking their feet in the air.  It was so funny.

The first night they went to bed without any problems.  The next day at nap time it was a whole different story.  In and out of bed, in and out of each others beds, lights on and off, knocking on the door, opening the door... it took an hour to get them down for a nap and then they hardly slept.  At least that night they were tired so they went to bed pretty easily again.  But around 11 pm or so (while I was watching the olympics in our room next door) I heard a THUNK, THUNK.  I checked the video monitor to see Olivia on the floor.  The funny thing was she was still sound asleep! 

This morning they got up and were giggling and turning the lights on and off.  Then all of a sudden they appeared in the living room.  We will have to work on the staying in the room part so they don't go wandering around the house on the weekends when mommy and daddy are still asleep. 

Hopefully the next few days go well.  Wish us luck!
