Of course which he doesnt. Thank god Ben could and would sleep anywhere as a baby he loved his sleep..........still does at nearly 17. I frquently have to use a glass of cold water to get him out of bed in the morning. <br />Love the tissue thing on the window, very resourceful of you.Go-Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746808309929560250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-55579922397018978732010-07-17T19:31:04.208-04:002010-07-17T19:31:04.208-04:00Hey - you were tested with challenges and you pass...Hey - you were tested with challenges and you passed!lisahgoldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11158660223296807317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-30703595451229787942010-07-16T14:46:30.773-04:002010-07-16T14:46:30.773-04:00OMG!

While at first we were all "will there be enough air?"....she slept like a ROCK. We actually slept well too.

We loved them.<br /><br />I am sure you're right! We have skylights but only in hallways so I don't think about them regularly. I think they'd be very hard in a bedroom. And oval windows - charming and very irritating.<br /><br />Kate - We had a swim and then all the kids had ice cream and two of us mothers had beer and it was kind of perfect, actually!<br /><br />Anonymous - It is kind of perfect, actually, and I don't think there's anything at all wrong with it. It's big, airy, and dark. I think the issue for him is more that it's totally unfamiliar. He has a fit when we put him down to sleep, and he wakes up crying. I think he's immediately all, where the hell am I?

The closet was literally as big as his nursery at home, so I really didn't feel bad about it. My sister-in-law put her baby in the closet on vacation as well. I mean, really, it's what you need to do. It's dark, you don't have to worry about waking him (or him waking you, if he's a noisy sleeper) but you're still close enough by if he needs you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-4064048289460662522010-07-15T17:23:40.177-04:002010-07-15T17:23:40.177-04:00You heard it - innovative and resourceful!

Oval windows and sky-lights should be in the same category of Seems-like-a-good-idea- but,-in fact,-are-not. Rooms with skylights are really loud during thunderstorms and scary at night - say when a bird flies into the window cut out of the roof. <br /><br />Have fun on the vacation! I'm sure J will adjust to the closet. Definitely go for the beer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-12550301737742008602010-07-15T16:08:09.463-04:002010-07-15T16:08:09.463-04:00I absolutely ADORE the title of this post.

(And now J is sleeping thank goodness and I don't think they have room service. But when he wakes up...)<br /><br />Stevie - Resourceful! Yes! Thank you!<br /><br />K-Tee - I have no idea. None. It's ridiculous. And I think oval windows are stupid. Why would you make these oval windows in rooms you use? They're impossible to put blinds, shades, or curtains on, as far as I can tell.Lemon Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280085058516960260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-32380354441509754722010-07-15T15:27:12.191-04:002010-07-15T15:27:12.191-04:00you are so innovative! i love it. i never understo...you are so innovative! i love it. i never understood why building designers would put 'hey everyone outside, lets look at the person naked in the shower' windows in a bathroom. it's the same as not installing ceiling vent/fan's in bathrooms - shit smells bad and sometimes the febreeze runs out... <br />ps. its never too early to start drinking. there is a reason why caramel bailey's and coffee go so well together :)K-Teehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814484208738146397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-12185486022781234852010-07-15T15:22:25.084-04:002010-07-15T15:22:25.084-04:00You're not trashy, you're RESOURCEFUL!

I don't think your solutions are trashy (what, no duct tape?), but if you want them to be so you can have a beer before 3:30, then trashy they shall be.<br /><br />Though I kind of thought 11:30 am was the cutoff for beer propriety. That's when restaurants start serving lunch! With beer! <br /><br />No?Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838430978051872591noreply@blogger.com
