Well...that worked until Eli went to school complaining that "that baby kept me up all night!" I can't have a tired child going to kindergarten. They are now in the same room and we have secured the bookcase (no dressers) and put a childproof doorknob on THEIR side. I know the fire marshall would cringe, but dying in a fire has got to be way less likely than them getting hurt roaming the house at night. <br /><br />About your dresser drawers...they sell things to put inside the drawer which make it hard for kids to open them. The parent as to push these hard plastic things down while sliding the drawer out in order to open it.Maryhttp://embfam.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352904249815125802.post-29409938195214962472009-07-07T13:46:03.696-04:002009-07-07T13:46:03.696-04:00OMG... what chaos your house seems like it's...OMG... what chaos your house seems like it's in. I never had any of those issues with my twins but with Chris, it's a totally different story. He is doing almost all that you mentioned. But the twins, even now that they are 5, will ask to go to bed at night. They can't stand not being in the same room as the other.jay_sayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02248158997690843621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352904249815125802.post-13173432159073441112009-07-06T15:07:06.225-04:002009-07-06T15:07:06.225-04:00Oh Lori, I feel like you just gave me a glimpse of...Oh Lori, I feel like you just gave me a glimpse of what's to come. Fortunately, ours aren't climbing out yet, but what you posted is exactly why I'm waiting until I absolutely have to to move them. Can you take the furniture out of their room or stick the dresser in a closet to keep them from climbing on it?AJWolverinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00745526038107093177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352904249815125802.post-18956800662249599722009-07-03T01:17:41.485-04:002009-07-03T01:17:41.485-04:00Thanks for the warning.

Of course I was able to move one into the toddler bed first and wait a couple of weeks before moving his brother. I know you said they were to tall for they were too tall for the crib tents but maybe that would be the way to go because I have a friend who kept both sets of twins in cribs until the oldest ones were like 4Leiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04215673915177170682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352904249815125802.post-646752963876821622009-07-01T17:10:54.200-04:002009-07-01T17:10:54.200-04:00we have the same problem over here, i put laycee b...we have the same problem over here, i put laycee back in her crib because of it. logan does well until him and ods get started. i am hoping to come out on top of these toddler years lolLexihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02459443384505523257noreply@blogger.com
