Sleeping battles!

Well??  Whadda you think?

I can no longer stand little Thai toes poking into my back each night, and I can't stand a little Navajo kid snoring so loudly in my room that I need ear plugs.  Yes, my girls MUST sleep in their own bedrooms!

I have pleaded, begged, cajoled, threatened, and bribed (yes bribed) the girls for MONTHS to no avail. I'm not sure that Fred even realizes that "Mama's room" is still partially his.  ;-)   But finally, FINALLY,  I think I have found the magic ticket.  Canopies.  Yes, my friends, this WILL work!!!!!!



The girls LOVE the canopies I bought for their rooms, so I'm hopeful that this sleeping arrangement will last a long LONG time.

SOOOOO cute! Becky had canopies for awhile. Just keep the dogs away. Don't know if yours are like mine, but when a dog jumps on your bed and you have a canopy? It isn't pretty.

And what is it about Thai toes? Lily sleeps horizontally and digs hers into me, too.

I love them! Where did you buy them?

Chandra- They came from Lowes for $24.99 each.

Gorgeous! We did the same thing for Ruby's room and it worked! Put up a canopy, got her princess sheets and put all her dolls in there and called it the "princess bed". She sleeps in there most of the time ever since. I say most of the time cause if she's sick or has a nightmare she still sleeps with me. Anyway, best of luck. The girls are just adorable and their rooms are done beautifully!
