TwiceToddlers and The Queen Bed

Since the beginning of 2009, my twins have taken in upon themselves to wake up around midnight or 1AM, wailing and wanting to sleep with Mommy and Daddy. Well, from the title of this blog, you can see we sleep in a queen bed. If you know what a queen bed looks like, it is semi long and not very wide. So, with four bodies in the bed, it gets crapped.

So, my DH has decided to check out King beds. On Monday or was it Tuesday, we all went out looking at King sized beds. Now, our room is quite small and therefore we would have to remove some furniture.

This plan of action does not sit well with Mommy at all. I do not want to enable my twins in this venture. They have their own beds and need to sleep in them.

Yesterday, I read this article from Parententing about seperation anxiety in toddlers and preschool aged kids. In the article, it talked about 3 and 4 year olds wanting to snuggle next to their Mommy and Daddy. The article said kids this age just want to have confirmation their Mommy and Daddy will not leave.

Well, whatever this thing is, I will have no part of it. If my twins want a happy Mommy, and not cranky, this sharing of Mommy and Daddy's bed will just have to stop.

Period.


Since Daddy told our twins to stay in their own beds (Tuesday), they have not made their way, as much, to our bed. Let's see how long this lasts. Just keep them in your prayers that they will obey Mommy and Daddy.

God Bless...
