Bunkin' it up!

"Auntie Izzi and Auntie Livvi have a bunk bed.  Can we get a bunk bed too?" says Max.

When Max was ready for a 'big boy bed', we decided to purchase a bunk bed, knowing Molli would eventually need a 'big girl bed', and they would probably be sharing a room one day.  I wanted to get a bunk bed that could also be used as 2 separate beds.  When Max and Molli moved into the same room last summer, we kept the beds separate.  Max wasn't old enough to sleep on the top yet. 

Mike has been looking for a 'project' to do, so I thought this would be perfect!  Max asked if we could make their beds bunk beds and we decided to go ahead and try it out!  A perfect Saturday afternoon of family bonding!

The kiddos "helping"

Miley hung out on the bed!  A lot safer than on the floor with screws and boards.

Dad is almost done!

The finished product

So far, things are going well:)  Molli was mad at first that she couldn't sleep on the top, but she can't get up and down the ladder by herself.  This new sleeping arrangement HAS helped with the goofing around the kids usually do at bedtime, thank goodness!
