The Boys New Space


We had a little extra money this weekend because this is the month that Mike gets three paychecks and we decided to go pay off the boys bunk bed which was in layaway. The great thing about this style of bunk bed is that if the need and/or space arises then we can take it apart and make it into two twin beds. The boys were so excited to spend the night in the same room together. In fact, they were very excited and it took them a while to go to sleep on Saturday night. Last night was much better. This wasn't the first time they were in a room together because they share a room at Memaw and Pop's house when they go over there to spend the night which is about once a month. I think that has actually helped the transition a little. In fact, Garrett hasn't fallen out of his big boy bed yet. We haven't had the big test yet which will be when Cameron wakes up in the middle of the night and has to go to the bathroom. If he does this after midnight he is usually fine, but if it is before midnight then he tends to not be fully awake and he cries and is disoriented. When this happens it is never fun for any of us. I have been giving them a little honey lemon water before be instead of just water. Mike's mom read that the honey slows the bladder functions down and the lemon helps with a cough if they have it. So far it has worked. He hasn't woken us up since we started this routine. We'll see though.
