It seems I've had several bedtime-related entries recently (BTW - Amanda is going to sleep without complaint - except for just now when a "bumblebee" was in her crib), and today's is no exception.
We bought the girls' new beds last night. They should be delivered next Tuesday. They had a blast running around the furniture store (Fingers) climbing on the beds. Elena seemed partial to the Buzz Lightyear one. Even waiting in the "order processing and payment" area was fun for them, since there was an older girl (7 years old?) waiting there to that they could chase.
At first, I was worried that the girls might react adversely to moving into a bed from their cribs. They like their cribs - they can jump in them safely (always fun) and drape a blanket over them and you have an instant tent! So I wanted to make sure they started hearing that their cribs would be going away. They've been pretty underwhelmed about that event. Maybe the cribs don't mean as much to them as I thought.
