{ all grown up }


We have a bunk bed at our rental condo that Sam {hearts}...we always told her that when she turned 5 she would be old enough to sleep on the top bunk and she could get a bunk bed for her room here. Leave it to her to remember, and us to forget. Seriously, how is it that she turned 5? Where did those 5 years go? Anyway, to make a long story short, we found a bunk bed on craigslist (for practically free)...all it needed was this adorable new bedding and we were good to go. Note to parents: Bunkbeds rule. Samme LOVES going to bed now. :)

While reminiscing about the past 5 years and our amazing little girl who isn't so little anymore, I came across this quote on a darling blog the other day....

"Make your wife the object of your highest devotion. Make your husband the recipient of your deepest passion. Love the one who wears your ring. And cherish the children who share your name. Succeed at home first."

Yes, succeed at home first. That's what we've been working on at our home lately.

Oh no! I made the same deal with my 4.5 year old over a year ago. I totally forgot, but I bet she didn't. Glad it is going well so far!

He he. My son (5) and my daugher (almost 3) are dying to share a room. We've promised them bunk beds, but yet to do it. Soon though...

we were just at IKEA and my girls were begging for bunk beds. It would be an big issue though as to who would be on the top bunk.
