It's done... finally. This bed took all weekend to get ready. We were given the mattress so that needed cleaning. Then we bought the bedding and it got washed.....it felt like 10 different loads. Once the frame was put together (after injury to Nekol's toe when it married the pieces on the floor.....which lead to major carpet cleaning from the pool of blood it left) we needed to add his headboard from his 4 in 1 crib....."it just bolts up"....not!! Clif had to drill holes in it and find different nuts and bolts so it would stay together. I guess I know a good christmas present for him, more batteries for his drill. That was the main reason this took so long, his batteries kept dying on him. After all of that, Kaleb loves his new big bed.
"It's more comfy" he says. The best part is that he has stayed in his bed all night long.....and no little boy accidents!!! I think Dexter is happy too. We finally got the windows done as well. We've had "temp" window coverings up for 3 years now. Isn't that the way it seems to go. Finally we got the blinds up and a valance. Of course they will stay with the house if it ever sells.

Ah I remember those days! He is turning in to such a big boy! Before you know it he will be in school too!! Crazy! The picture of Klara and Kaleb in the same bed reminds me of a picture my mom took of me and Gary when we were little. It is so nice to have an older brother..I'm sure Klara will feel the same way.
