They didn't have bunk beds but they had a daybed with a trundle underneath. It worked well (as long as they put the trundle away in the morning)Christinehttp://www.craftygeordi.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-18563771689378900262010-10-07T16:06:25.089-04:002010-10-07T16:06:25.089-04:00I'm so happy to have a minute to visit here. ...I'm so happy to have a minute to visit here.

In fact, until about a year ago my oldest slept in there with them!<br /><br />He slept on the floor between their beds until we bought a bunk bed...then he decided to move out and take the bunk bed to his room.<br /><br />It works out nice for me, because now I have a guest room!Jennifer Juniperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07087072033452320694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-78568751153592365022010-10-07T04:55:05.434-04:002010-10-07T04:55:05.434-04:00I was the only girl...so I never had to share!

What are you going to do with the empty room? Perhaps a craft room or a Mom cave for you?! You deserve it, after all! I wanted to let you know that I thanked you in my most recent post. I really appreciate the advice I got from all of your readers from your progress parties. It has really helped me fix up my living room. You are one of my favorite bloggers and I really enjoy reading your daily posts!

It was a big challenge for me to share a dorm room with a roommate when I went away to college because of that. <br /><br />Eventually our boys will be sharing a room. They are looking forward to it. We'll see how it goes! <br /><br />Can't wait to see how you end up decorating for the two girls at two such different ages...always a challenge. But you are SO creative.

They got them and are back to sharing a room again. After all the back and forth, they actually like sharing a room even when they fuss sometimes. I just make sure that if my 8 yr old needs some space that I let him go in our room and watch tv or read for a bit. The longer they are together the better they will be (fingers crossed and hoping for you!)Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11480719562464655519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-57197820894085845882010-10-06T10:50:17.732-04:002010-10-06T10:50:17.732-04:00I enjoyed reading this!

When I was 6 my mom caught me pushing furniture and moving all of my sister's stuff out of her room and into mine because I had decided that we should share a room and make my little sister's old room into our playroom-so she let us! It was fun except I had to share a double bed with her and she was only two so she would wet the bed sometimes. Gross. I did love my playroom though! :)stephaniegiesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00339140164968423032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-87468825061500738462010-10-06T09:34:34.100-04:002010-10-06T09:34:34.100-04:00Haha!

My siblings use to fight over who had to sleep with me if we were away from home and had to share a bed. I use to grind my teeth and was the worst bed hog (or so they say). I can’t image if we ever had to share a room.
