Anyway...we kept Kassi in the crib until she was 18 months. The only reason we moved her out was because Ty was ready to move in. I had every intention of keeping Tyler in the crib until he was about 2. About 2 weeks ago we had Ricky's family over for dinner. One of Kassi's cousins taught her how to climb into the crib and I found them both in there jumping. They were having a grand time. I pulled them out, and thought that would be the end. How wrong I was. For the past two weeks, every time I have gone in there...morning, afternoon naps, and bedtime, Kassi has thrown all of her babies in the crib and climbed in with Ty. Poor Ty has been woken up many times by his loving sister wanting to share his bed.
So our dilemma...move Kassi downstairs into her own room, or get Tyler a big bed. Our house has 4 bedrooms, 2 upstairs and 2 down. The thought of one of my babies sleeping all by themselves in the dark, cold basement is what led to the kids sharing a room. They are just too little to be that far away from me! :) So, Tyler got a big bed! I didn't think it would affect me, but it has been a little hard. It just seems like they grow so fast as it is, and we are pushing that process along. However, the kids loved it! They climbed and jumped all over it, ya know...breaking it in. Ty did pretty good last night, I guess. When Ricky and I went to bed he was on the floor, and I put him back in bed, about 1:00 I had to go put him back in bed, and when I went into get them this morning he was on the pillows on the floor again. Silly boy! He did do better during his morning and afternoon naps though, so I think he will be just fine! Here are some pics of his big boy bed!
I don't know if Ty really cares about the Cars bedding that Ricky picked out, but Kassi sure loved it!
Here are both of my cute (big!) kids! I think Kassi thinks that both beds are hers. haha!

Your kids are getting big! When you move away, you just seem to think that time freezes in other people's lives....and their kids should look the same as the last time you saw them! They are sure cute!
I had a hard time when I put Jarrett in a big boy bed at the same age. It is hard when our babies get to do big things!
they are so cute! I have been wondering if I should put Braxton in a big bed yet, but I think he'd end up doing the same thing and wake Jayden up! At least they love each other right?!
You know Abigale went straight to a big bed because she was closterphobic (how do you like that spelling). It was hard to believe she wanted that more than her crib... Darling bed! You are great parents... so fun to read about your updates on your blog. Take care friend...
