Big Girl Beds

Sunday night we put a second big-girl-bed in the girls' room.  Chloe has been sleeping in hers for about two weeks and has no problems transitioning from her toddler bed.


Kevin painted these frames and I think they look great! They were originally just plain wood, but have been drastically improved with (a few) coats of paint!



She loves it! :)


This is the bed we put in on Sunday evening - and April was excited!! We've put the headboard at the foot of her bed, as a way to create another "wall" and you can see the bed-rail for the side.  I think it seems like a bigger transition because she moved straight from a crib to this twin bed - but it's working out great!

Daddy tucking her in!

How long will she stay this way? Might be turned around by morning! :)



*I'm working on quilts for these beds....that's a post for another day :)

It looks great! Connor moves around a lot in his twin sized bed, but I'm not worried so much about him falling out since it's bigger - one benefit of a bigger bed. :) Have fun April and Chloe! I wonder when you'll come in and find them in the same bed...:)

A dear friend

I'm leading the study tomorrow at my Bible Study. We're reading a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan and the chapter I'm in 'charge of' of real life examples of people who are living completely for Christ. I've come up with an example from my own life to talk about and I thought I'd let my blog readers in on what I'm going to share tomorrow. Enjoy! I met Mrs. Hohman on a hot July afternoon after mistakenly knocking on her neighbor’s door. I stood on her front porch with my mom, nervously waiting to meet the woman I planned on living with for my first year at Grove City . I felt like I was towering over her short frame as she showed me the 3 rd floor and barked the rules of “no swearing, no smoking, no boys”. I handed over my rent check and moved to her house in late August. September came and a fellow freshman had a mental breakdown and her bed was now available to me…… So, after 3 weeks of living with Mrs. Hohman I moved out....

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)
