Reed has always wanted bunk beds ever since he was out of his crib and could speak. Well, bunk beds was something I always avoided with him....he was an active toddler and I just did not want the headache of worrying! He and Dean always shared a room when they were younger and Dean being the cautious one he is never wanted bunk beds anyway. So some how with all our moves over the years we were always able to tell Reed "one of these days" when the bunk bed issue came up. Well 2 years ago when we moved to CA. the boys finally were able to have there own rooms. The excitement of having his own room was enough for Reed at the time that again we were able to avoid getting bunk beds. Well, about a month ago we were at IKEA and we came across these bunk beds that Reed really liked. They were silver with a full size bed on the bottom. We figured it was about time! Of course they did not have any in stock at the time so again Reed had to wait! Well this week-end, guess what, Reed got his bunk bed! Dale drove him out to IKEA on Saturday to pick it up and on Sunday morning they put it together! Last night was his first night to sleep in his new bed and as I was tucking him in I thought to myself how I missed him all curled up in his small little twin bed. He then asked me if I could stay with him a little longer because he missed his old bed.....I'm glad I'm not the only one!
Reed helping????? Daddy put his bed together....
Now, he's working harder!
And here they are....Reed's bunk beds!!(we have to get a thinner mattress for the top as his old twin mattress is too thick for this bed)
Chilling in his room!
