New Rooms

Amazing what kids do when left to their own devices..

After sharing a room pretty much since Mary was born, I guess Ethan and Mary got tired of waiting for their new (separate) bedrooms to be finished. So they’ve decided to sleep in separate boxes instead.

And they’ve designed them to their liking, too. Both boxes have windows and doors, pictures on the walls inside, and disco lights in the ceilings. Ethan cut out a series of circles to let in interesting light patterns. When they want it dark, they simply replace the cardboard.

The paper Ethan left says “Need Tuck-ins” Apparently I was a bit too late as this guy got to bed with his glasses AND school clothes on!

Am I a bad mother for letting them sleep in their boxes every night till they get tired of it? It’s been almost two weeks now, but I figure as long as they are sleeping (and they are) I might as well let them live it up.

    These picture stink. Now that we’re having to say goodbye to the boxes, I’ll see if I can’t photo-document them a little better tomorrow. 🙂
