Milestone: Cameron makes the move

So far the twins have been sleeping in the same crib. We thought we could keep them together until at least four months...but a lase, the kids had other plans. We had decided we needed to separate them for several reasons. Mainly because they wake each other up with noises. Timothy makes so much noise in his sleep, always grunting when he moves. And Cameron has acid reflux and occasionally she cries out in her sleep for 10-15 seconds...just long enough to wake Timothy. Timothy is also getting so big that he slides down to the side of the crib. He is all squished up at the bumper by time he wakes up.

Having said all that, I got Cameron's crib ready last week and intended to make the move over the weekend, thinking it would be smooth...not so much. Cameron cried every time we put her down in her crib. I guess it was hard on her to be away from her brother or to be alone. I decided I should put her down in there just for naps during the day so she could get used to it. I think she warmed up to it and finally slept in her crib last night! She isn't sleeping as long as she usually does but it's a start.

Here are some pics of her crib and some of their last nights together in Timothy's crib. Look at all the space she has now to sleep. (never mind the fact her mommy put her bumper on upside down...I'll fix it when I change the sheets again.)
