Musical Beds

One thing we have managed to do in our family is to keep the boys from sleeping in our bed; but we have not been able to manage to keep them in their own beds! Depending on the night, Nathan and Camden may be sleeping in one of several different places! Nathan has bunk beds, so he has his choice of up or down; this decision is usually made by which bed has clean sheets on it. But since he says his bed is so hard and not comfortable, he will often sleep on his floor (because we have such comfortable floors!).

His bottom bunk that was not an option tonight due to stuff being on it!
Having to sleep in the only spot available...poor guy!

Then Nathan discovered that he really thinks the twin bed in Camden's room is very comfortable. This bed is in Camden's room as an extra bed for when we have a houseful of guests. Usually this is Grammie's bed, but then Camden started putting his bear, Coco, to sleep in this bed, so it became Coco's bed. Nathan was then told he could not sleep in Coco's bed.

Then Camden decided he did not like his bed...a toddler bed. So now he will often sleep in Coco's bed; or if he starts out in his bed, we will check on him and find him in Coco's bed; or he starts out in Coco's bed and ends up in his own bed. It is a little confusing. And distressing for Nathan who is now stuck with only 3 options for sleeping...and of course he has the most uncomfortable bed in the house!
