Madison's new room

Tonight Madison and Jackson are sleeping in separate rooms in our house for the first time since they were born.

It was a long process preparing the play room to become Madison's bedroom.  The room needed to be painted including the trim which just takes so long.  It still needs a lot of work including new trim around the new-ish windows but the new furniture is put together.  They are still sleeping in toddler beds (they still fit) until new twin mattresses get in for their new beds.

I really expected Jackson to get up a million times after going to bed with a million excuses why he couldn't go to sleep without Madison but they both fell asleep immediately!

Wow !
Pretty amazing. Did they want to have their own rooms ?

Well, this was all sparked by a few nightmare bedtimes back in the summer. Chris decided them having separate rooms would keep the monkey business away. Since then bedtime hasn't been that bad but he had already gone ahead and promised Madison her own room. They did need new big kid furniture so it did make sense to separate them before we got that. The playroom had become such a mess that it took a lot of time and effort to clean it up and sort through all of their stuff.
