3 in 1

Call it crazy, but we have officially moved Maeve to the kids room. There are now 3 little hot bodies sleeping in one bedroom, and an empty crib awaiting #4 in the other.
Here are the tallies so far:

~Nights in the room: 15
~ Successful naps in the room: 2
~ Bedtimes without tears: 4
~ Midnight wanderings: 1
~ Falling out of bed: 2
~ Complaints from the other two: numerous
~ Quiet time for all 3: 0 <---This is the hardest part for me!!!
~ 6am wake up call for mommy and daddy: 14

I don't know if you can call it a successful experience or not yet.

It took some maneuvering and finagling to get all three of their belongings into the small space, but I did manage it!

Most morning we wake up to the room completely destroyed because Maeve is really enjoying the freedom in the middle of the night. All the books are pulled off the bookshelf, and her clothing and Brynn's are usually scattered around the floor as well. We usually find her in some interesting ensemble of an outfit as well. This morning it was her Jammie top, and two pairs of Brynn's undies...pulled up over her diaper of course, and one sock. Oh well. This soon shall pass, right?

Here is a glimpse of success. There have got to be more of these in our future, cause I am not doing well without MY quiet time.
