Hi ! Have you ever posted pics of Hazels nursery? I have been following you for quite some time and don't recall ever seeing any. I think you have great style and can't wait to see what you design for your babes!

I did! I did!  Check out Hazel’s Technicolor Dream Nursery.
(that was her spot in our old place, of course) 

We are still trying to figure out our game plan for H2’s nursery - like what we need to rebuy and what pieces from Z’s room we can use in new baby’s space (the glider, the changing table).  There is also the question of how we are going to backfill Hazel’s space once we move out most of her furniture for H2….
Add that to the list of rooms that need decorated! 

There is also the crib situation we have to sort out.
Specifically, H2 needs a crib but I isn’t quite ready to make the transition to a big girl bed…and we don’t want to invest in another full-sized crib for just a few months of use.

I am thinking we will put H2 in the Alma Mini Crib (which Hazel used for her sleepovers at Grandma & Grandpa’s)
and let Z stay in her Ouff Sparrow for a couple more months.

That’s the plan, at least.

My question:  How have other mamas out there navigated 2-under-2 nugget-sleeping-arrangements?  I’d love to hear what worked for your kiddos and how early you were able to get your older one out of the crib.

Notes

  1. judiism said: we kept D in a bassinet (in our room) for a few months until we were ready to transition H to a big girl bed. but my girls are 25 months apart; H was nearly 2.5 when she moved to a bed. i think the mini crib for a while is a perfect idea!
  2. socalledlife said: B was in a bjorn travel crib for 11 months until S got good in a toddler bed and we got room for B’s own space.
  3. 3rdcoastfieldnotes said: my mom had twins when i was 2 — crazy, eh? anyway, i got transitioned into a bed pronto, but it was a hand-me-down daybed with an optional crib-like (1.5 ft high bars) bumper-piece so i couldn’t fall out. when i was older, they removed the bumper.

  5. jessbedazzle said: With my brother and I (a 20 month difference), I was in an infant crib - bassinet- and my brother was in the larger crib until he moved to a toddler bed a few months after his 2nd birthday and I moved into the regular crib.
