Big Beds

Oh, my big girl and boy!  I know this is probably long overdue considering they'll be 4 in September, but they have done well in their cribs up to this point.  Reason #1, they still fit in them and reason #2 they never climbed out of them.  So the containment factor has been a blessing to us!  But with potty-training progressing as it has there was a need  for them to be able to get up and  potty as needed at night or rest-time.  It has been a scary transition wondering how they would react to all that freedom.  So far, it hasn't been a problem.  You see, they like being with each other!  Which is the reason I think they never climbed out of the crib.  Where would they go, into the other ones crib?  In fact some mornings they tell me to go away that they aren't ready to get up.  Then they go right back to laughing and making up stories from their respective beds!  I was wondering when, if ever, the upside to the twin-thing would kick in...it now has!  As difficult as it was to have two babies, having two toddlers makes things so much easier.  They always have a playmate, a role-model, and peer.  Whew, about time!  So before we get their twin beds we are trying the toddler bed option.  Working out well so far and M&M are excitedly anticipating their big beds!
