A Night Owl Nursery

It's a tiny room (or cubbyhole) but it's home to Alexander's night owl nursery. Morgan finally moved into her big girl bed so we could move Alex upstairs to the "kid’s loft". The bedding is called Alphabet Soup from PBK. It's from years ago but I love it. We got it when I was pregnant the first time and before we knew the gender, with the goal to reuse it with each child. So far so good. I love it as much as I did when we first ordered it.

The transition upstairs has been great. Alex is on a regular schedule so feedings are predicable. Bed time is at 11PM, feeding 3:30 AM and 6:30 AM. It's almost clock work. He takes 3 naps a day, first one around 8 AM (just as sister is getting up) and another nap short nap around 3PM and again at 7PM. Between Morgan and Alex someone is always feeding or sleeping with lots of diaper changes in-between. So mom and the video monitor are getting a workout. But with Alex out of our room, mom and dad are getting a lot more sleep and that is always a good thing.

Big sister also loves having her brother upstairs with her. Morgan is a heavy sleeper so when Alex cries at night she almost always sleeps through it. Once I found her at the crib saying, "don't cry buddy, it's OK." It was so cute.

(it really is a small room. Note: the little t.v. is not for Alex. It's for Morgan to play her old VHS Disney movies.)
