Big boy beds!

Ok, so long story short, the boys decided they were ready for big boy beds (How might you ask...) They (mostly Owen) climbed out of his crib 25 times in 15 minutes the other day, and by the end of it my arms where so tired from putting him back into his bed, that I gave up, and switched their beds. This was about a week ago. It's been going pretty good (not exactly smooth sailing, but ok) So if any of you have any great hints or ideas about helping kids stay in their beds (and not jump on eachother to wake the other one up) at bedtime AND throughout the whole night - I'm open for ideas!

Oh man! Good luck. I'm dreading putting Katelin in a bed. I'm waiting as long as I can with her. I can't believe they jump on each other to wake the other one up! That is really funny...for me.

I have heard that is a tough struggle, especially when there are two of them! The is a product called the Good Nite Light. http://www.goodnitelite.com/index.php?page=faqs

I haven't had to use it yet but it looks pretty cool. The website will tell you all about it but basically you program it so the moon shows until they are allowed to get out of bed and then it turns to the sun. Let me know if you use it and how it goes!
