Musical Beds
It's hard to keep track of who is sleeping in which bed lately. Everyone starts off in their own bed, and sometime in the night we all switch.

For the first eight months of her life, Lila slept in a co-sleeper right next to our bed. I loved having her right beside my head. But it was a bit crowded, and rolling over or sneezing sometimes woke her up. So when she started scooting, we moved her to her crib in the adjoining room. And she liked that just fine. It's a sturdy crib, and I can lie down next to her when we feel like nursing and sleeping.

But lately, Lila wants to sleep next to me all night. She'll go back to sleep with our usual nursing and rocking routine, but then she wakes up every 30 minutes needing me. So after Nathan comes to our bed in the middle of the night, Lila and I go to his double bed.

Nathan goes to sleep in our bed, then Randy carries him to his own room. But those pesky closet monsters disturb his sleep. Today I was wondering if it might be easier to just leave Nathan in our bed, and I could just sleep with Lila in Nathan's bed.

If Nathan's bed was as comfortable as ours, I would just do that!

We asked Nathan the other day why he didn't want to sleep in his own bed, and he said "There are CRUMBS in that bed!" Well, yeah. When you eat Ritz crackers in bed, you wind up with crumbs.
