Fruit Basket Upset!

Paige's old room, now rearranged

I really wish I had taken "Before" pictures, but, alas, I didn't!  For the last couple nights Alaina has been crawling into bed with Paige after we do our bedtime routine, pulling up the covers and proclaiming, "I sweep here!"  We have been letting them have 10 minutes together, then we go back and take Alaina to her own room and crib.  This has not been fun.  Alaina cries and I am heartbroken.  We have been saying that Daddy and I need to talk about what we are going to do.  We got bunkbeds for the girls last fall and they have been up in Paige's room.  They can be separated into two twin beds and as we are NOT ready to move Alaina from the crib, we thought it best to put one of the beds in with Alaina.  This way the girls can get used to sleeping in the same room, but with Alaina still contained.  We left the other bed in Paige's old room in hopes that if it doesn't go well, we can still have her sleep in another room.  I really didn't have time to redo any decor, we just moved furniture and toys to accomodate the change.  Eventually, we would like to bunk the beds with the girls in the same room, and use the other room as a play room.  Only time will tell, how this all will turn out!
Still Paige's old room.  We plan to hang the star above the bed.  The door is the closet.
One more shot of Paige's room, the closed door goes into the bathroom.
Formally Alaina's room. . .now the shared room.
Pray for us!
