We got a call last week that the bunk beds were in. I was totally not at all prepared to get them TWO months early...they had said the end of April and I was fine with that. I knew once we got them delivered there was no way the boys would just leave them alone and continue sleeping in their old beds!! Gary and I had many discussions about whether to move the boys back into the middle bedroom (had been the nursery)...which was painted yellow. The loft bed/bunk bed fit much better in that room and for other various reasons (mainly the ridiculous amount of noise the treadmill - directly underneath the blue bedroom - makes when Gary is jogging on it at 6:30am) we decided to make the yellow bedroom their new room. I had a brief brilliant idea to paint the room orange...but that idea was discussed at length and put on hold indefinitely!! I still need to get curtains (and I'm taking those wood shutters out). I plan on getting some denim room darkening ones that I can just pull back and forth - but first I have to find some that I like.
I really like the way it turned out and so far the boys are loving these beds. I'm particular to Ben's bed - it's like a little cave in there. Absolutely perfect for Ben. It's also where Gary does his evening storytime (which explains why my picture is so dark and grainy).
