I know Im behind on my bloggin, and I was about to start back up but then I was just called to YW. So that is occupying my thoughts right now.
But I need some help, I want this baby crap (aka, changing table, clothes, etc.) out of my room. Meaning getting Grant and Gavin to share a room so Parker can be in his own room. Right now he is kinda sharing the play room. I dont think I can totally give up my playroom.
About a month ago we put Grant and Gavin in the same room. The good news is they dont come out of the room. But they have SO much fun, chatting and giggling. ANd I cant really blame them. Sharing a room is pretty fun. But really, talking until 9:30-10:00. And we lay them down at 7:00. And of course they dont sleep in its the usual wake up time.
So Im willing to try any ideas. I thought I had done it all, praise, bribe, threats. But maybe it will just take time.....ugh.
Help ME :)

My kids do NOT share a room and stay up till 10 talking and singing (yes to themselves!) I have no advice!
Hello-
I recently came across your blog and wanted to reach out to you in hopes of you posting about an event that we're particularly excited about at Primrose Schools.
I have an article/event that I would like to submit that is about dancing and how it relates to fitness. Primrose Schools is hosting a Dance Off competition (with proceeds going the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals) for families and I think it is something you and your readers would enjoy!
I look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you,

Amber,
The only thing that worked with my boys was separate bed times. Which ever kid needs more sleep goes down first. While you're waiting for #1 to go to sleep you instill "quiet time" for the other to help wind down and be ready for bedtime. Then put the other to bed. Be ready for a consequence is #2 wakes up #1 (something HUGE). They will eventually get it. They are still pretty young. If you absolutely can't have separate bedtimes then I suggest consequences for goofing around. One thing I did was make them do housejobs until they BEGGED my to let them go to bed. LOL! it was a genious(sp?) moment of mine!
Good Luck!!
Sorry about the typo's!
I have no experience in this either. I was going to suggest what Melissa said, separate bedtimes. Good luck! I'll be there soon myself!
Sorry I have no advise but I'm so glad you're making your way back to the blog world! I've been thinking of you a lot too. I heard about some of the struggles w/ the milk allergy etc. You are such a strong woman and I hope things are going more smoothly now! Oh, and I am feeling a trillion times better this pregnancy...it has been such a blessing :)
