All Grown Up

Over the weekend we make a dramatic shift in our home - Kennedy and Alex moved to the basement. It wasn't some form of sadistic punishment, we're simply trying to make space for the baby. One of the downsides to our upstairs is that we only have two bedrooms. So, for the past few months we've been talking to Dede and Alex about moving downstairs. We thought we could sweeten the deal by giving Kennedy a new "princess" bed and Alex would move from the crib to a "big boy" bed (I can't believe how tiny he looks).




Saturday, we finally made the switch. We imagined a night full of tears, trips to mommy and daddy's room, and zero sleep. Much to our delight things went pretty well. With the monitor we could hear everything going on, but there wasn't anything going on. Both Kennedy and Alex took to their new room as if it was nothing new. They slept through the night and woke up excited about their new space. If only everything was this easy!
