Big Girl Beds - Pictures!

Technically, the pink bed is a Disney Princesses bed.  The purple bed is a Disney Tinkerbell bed.
However, we opted not to put the stickers on the bed for several reasons.

One, we were afraid it might encourage the girls to fight over which bed belonged to which one.

Two, we were afraid they might rip the stickers off.  They LIKE tearing stickers off of things.

They like tearing WALLPAPER borders, after all...but you can hardly tell, since it went back together so well.  Except for the piece that ripped off.  That part couldn't be pieced back together.

So we didn't take the chance, and there's never been a question about which one got in which bed.  We told Kayla the pink one was hers, and Megan that the purple one was hers -- they accepted that and haven't disputed it.

Now the princess and tinkerbell bedding, we did use -- and the girls have taken to those quite well.  Even carrying them into the living room!  And they know who's is who's and ask for it specifically, no fights there.  yay!

We saved the stickers, so we can add them later.  When the girls get over the sticker-ripping phase.
The beds also have canopies -- we can add them later, when they're older, too.  They're too active now, we keep having to put the side back on Kayla's bed because it doesn't fit quite right and it gets knocked off.  I can't imagine what would happen to the canopies.

Someday they might look like these.







But for now, they look like these!
