Just Go Big

Dad's or dad's to be if you're ever in the market to buy a new bed, and are looking to upgrade from the full, just go crazy, skip ahead, pass Go and collect $200!, skip the queen, and just go king or California king.

Never would have thought that Babydaddy would be complaining about how small a queen size bed feels, but throw in an infant and a toddler, and you'll wish you were sleeping on a park bench which is wider than that amount of mattress you'll get when you're sharing the queen with 3 other bodies.

Kids don't sleep properly, they like to sleep perpendicular(or upside down) to the bed, like to spread out the little limbs, like to kick off covers/blankets, and notorious for waking up early and not falling back asleep.

In the past week, Babydaddy woke up with babyboy using his hip as a pillow, mind you Babydaddy thought it was Babygirl the whole time. Another time this week both to the surprise of Babymama and Babydaddy, Babygirl had Houdini-ed her way right in the middle of them, without anyone waking. Just tonight, went into bed to find the bed occupied by Babygirl and Babymama, right smack in the middle of the bed, leaving Babydaddy just a sliver of mattress to occupy tonight.

The options are(can you tell I'm in the midst of creating a final exam)
a) sleep on couch
b) sleep in Babygirl's bed(which would be like sleeping in minefield of stuffed animals, toys, etc.)
c) find a park bench to sleep on
d) sleep with half of my family, knowing that by an ungodly AM hour, Babyboy will have to join us due to not being able to go back to sleep. Gotta love family time.

I'll be California (king bed) dreamin' tonight!
