AND I know part of the reason it's still going on is I'm not really that committed to changing it, because when I've got my little Z curled up next to me with her arms around me saying "More stories, Mommy!"... well, it's kinda hard to want to be anywhere else.<br />Mikhaela Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02817367214920267825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863792023187803515.post-58135066325296871242012-10-05T01:31:18.706-04:002012-10-05T01:31:18.706-04:00My two year old twins slept on a floor mattress an...My two year old twins slept on a floor mattress and for a while now they each have had a toddler bed, but they would stay in their room until recently. They learned how to open the door and like to "visit" us in the middle of the night. The boy also gets up at night to use his potty and wants to stay up and my husband will take him back to his room and sing a song and rub his back and he will go to sleep, but sometimes he comes back to our room and has to be taken back again over and over. Lately it has been getting better because they know we will put them back in their room so they just stay in there. Also, like Inder-ific said, it does not last forever. Next month it will be something else lol. I have so many things planned out, but have been too tired to sew.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18063959407419342340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863792023187803515.post-11179253577457954772012-10-05T00:24:10.329-04:002012-10-05T00:24:10.329-04:00First of all, I love this dress so much.

Well done!)<br /><br />I hear you on the bedtime thing. We're going through something with that right now too. Once they get too big for a crib it becomes even harder to prevent them from popping up every five seconds. Sigh. And with the little one waking up frequently in the evenings, I'm not getting much sewing done either. I just end up giving up and going to bed with all of my kids. But this is just a short season in our lives, right?

I guess it would be digital now but they worked wonderfully for me. I've had 4 children and this would be my best tip for active littlies. Keeps their mind interested while their body relaxes.
