As part of Tru’s 18th month birthday celebration, we decided to give his nursery a facelift. It’s been keeping me busy the whole of last week. Kirsten was outgrowing the co-sleeper and it was nice time for Tru to transition to a toddler bed, so we gave his crib to baby girl and got 2 toddler beds for the kid’s nursery.
Why 2? It’ll eventually be used for Kirsten and in the meantime, it will serve as a spare bed for when Tru’s friends come for a sleepover. Or he can alternate beds every night like the Sultan of Brunei. We also threw in a slide to complete the look and Tru thinks his room is like playground heaven.
Tru's favorite bed for now
I think the eyes are too creepy for him
Tru can go up and down 50 times a day
Since he was getting bored with some of his toys, we retired some of them and brought out some new ones. Then every couple of weeks, we swap them again. This way, they think that they’ve got tons of new toys all the time.
We’re still working on the nursery. We’re thinking of adding wall stickers and some new curtains. I found this website with lovely fabrics which will be perfect for making curtains. I’ve shortlisted 2 but that’s where I got stuck. Here’s where I need your help. Anyone with an eye for design, some advice would be great. So what do you say? Option A or B?

@Fang, I got it online from another mom who’s kids have outgrown it. That was after trawling the forums for a very long time. If you’re particular about getting it new, you can check out http://www.aprisin.com.sg. It’s the only local store I know that brings in Little Tikes beds.

@Jessica, actually I would. But then again, I haven’t slept in months so I would also sleep in a dungeon with rats.
