One of Joshie's "Birthday" presents this year for turning three is transitioning him from the toddler bed that is in the above picture to a "big boy" bed that our dear, sweet friends the Juarez's gave us. Kim Juarez is one of my best friends here in Texas and I have grown to love their family in so many ways. I began teaching at Legacy with Kim and had her daughter, Tori in my 6th grade math class. Tori is now in my 8th grade class and having her the past three years has been a blessing. Well, they are moving to Oklahoma to start a Legacy of Tulsa there and to also start a church with her husband, Orlando called The Bridge.

Kim blessed us with her son Joshua's twin bed as he is married and has no need of it. We were so honored to have it and we told Josh that for his third birthday we would move the bed upstairs to his room and he could sleep on it then. We would then move his bed to Jenna's room so Jenna could be a big girl now too. That way Julianna could move from the pack and play to the crib. Sounds like musical beds, but that's what happens when you have "Irish Triplets".

Thankfully the transition was awesome. Joshie LOVED his bed, and the only thing we have to worry about is he loves jumping off of it onto the floor. He's upstairs, so it shakes the whole house! He says he's "falling with style"....from Toy Story. Jenna has been awesome in her bed. She knows she can get out, but knows she shouldn't get out if she doesn't want to be in trouble. Here's a photo journal of our jouney....
