2 Boys 1 Room

Two nights ago we put Reed to bed in Dallin's room. He was so excited and to our surprise he never tried to climb out of bed once. We've had two wonderful nights and one great nap in the 'big bed' now. Wouldn't it be great if potty training went this well, that is next on my to do list before the baby is born. The real reason for this post is to share the behind the scene moment. After tucking the boys in for the night I turned the light off, closed the door, and sat beside the door - just waiting to say "go to bed boys". I should have had more faith, instead I leaned my ear against the door to hear Dallin get out of bed and pull the blind back, he said, "it's dark Reed, you see that star, I hope your dreams come true, lets go to sleep." I could hardly believe it! I must be a little sappy because I started to cry and Ross looked at me like I was crazy, of course I had to tell him what happened and we both sat by the door hoping for more, but not a peep, they both were asleep before we knew it. Boys I love you so much, thanks for being such wonderful brothers!

How precious! I wish that was my experience, but I WAS the mom YELLING, "STAY IN BED!" Oh well! I hope your experience continues to go well! And good luck with potty training!

Yay, I am so glad that so far it has gone so well! I'm crossing my fingers for you that it will continue that way!
