My daughter is five months old now. She sleeps through the night, and isn't bothered by noises around her while sleeping. So, we implemented"Operation Co-habitation" today. She has now moved in with her brother.
I thought he had lots of baby stuff while she only had a little closet and a few drawers of things. I was wrong. His clothes were spread out on a longer rung of hangers. Her clothes were squeezed in tight in a shorter space. And the stuffed animals of pink! She got so many adorable stuffed animals that she'll love when she gets just a bit older. I had to rearrange two shelves in his closet just to fit them all.
My son loved the whole moving in process. He helped with the hex wrench to tighten and loosen the bolts on her bed as I disassembled and reassembled it.
They're going to have fun together in their shared room in the future. We're going to find out if it's more work or less work having them together. How will nap times coordinate? If one wakes up, will it wake the other one? If one has a bad night, will the other? Hopefully not. Probably so.
So no more, "his room" or, "her room." We now have "The baby room." Should be interesting to say the least.
The Big Boy Update: Wires and plugs, oh my. He likes wires. He likes plugs. Today he positively would not leave them be. He'd run from one to another. He knew he wasn't suppose to mess with them, but he was being hard-headed.
The Tiny Girl Chronicles: Talking or crying? She likes to talk to herself. She talks for a good bit sometimes happily. Then the tone changes. It sounds like she's unhappy, whining, or just plain mad. But when you go over to look at her, she smiles at you and goes back to playing with the toy or item. Maybe she'll be able to explain what was happening when she gets some words.
Right-size Countdown: 3.6 pounds to go
