Last week Noelle finally moved downstairs to her new bedroom. With only 4 weeks left until baby's arrival we couldn't wait any longer to make the switch. We've had the beds and bedding for several months now, but wanted to wait to move her until after summer, when our lives settled into more of a routine and we also needed to have shelving installed in her closet so all of her stuff could move down with her. Now the room is completely done, other than a little more decorating. Addison will join her eventually, we do have enough bedrooms for all the kids to have their own room, but thought Noelle would appreciate having some company in the basement. And if two of the kids share a bedroom, that leaves an extra one for me to use as a craft room. :) Addison was a bit jealous that Noelle got to sleep in the new bedroom and she didn't, but we are going to keep her in the crib for a bit longer and let them each have their own space while they both still take afternoon naps. The beds are actually bunks, but we separated them for safety purposes until they are a few years older.
The transition couldn't have gone better, Noelle LOVES her new room. And she has even been sleeping in a little longer in the morning, since she doesn't hear Matt & I get up ... an added bonus!
