who shares a room?

Last night I was at a baby shower for one of my friends.

She's having a baby girl and she already has a two year old boy at home.

Everyone was asked to write down a bit of advice (aimed at having a second child and/or having a daughter).

I loved hearing all the advice, because I need to implement much of it myself.

My advice to her?

"don't be afraid to let them share a room."

It's been great to have Asher and Ivy in the same room (for the most part).   The two of them are such good little buddies AND amazingly they tend to sleep right through if one or the other is crying.  (When both are crying at bedtime, it's quite the symphony of sounds!) It's fun to listen at the door after lights out (unless they are crying). Some favorite room sharing moments:

• Asher teaching Ivy the alphabet (and practicing many songs, and sometimes teaching it incorrectly)
• Asher reasoning with Ivy as to why she should stop crying and go to sleep.
• Finding them BOTH in Ivy's crib one morning eating cinnamon rolls that I made the night before. 
• Ivy begging to wear Asher's pajamas to bed (and getting to quite often)
• Stories and prayer (and sometimes tickling) on Asher's bed.

We are moving to a bigger place next month (so exciting) and I have been thinking a lot about what I'm going to do (that's probably why that piece of advice was on my mind last night at the shower).

Right now, we have 3 bedrooms so we have:

 (1)our room (baby sleeping in our room too), 

(2)Asher and Ivy together, and

 (3)a playroom (which was also the guest room).

When we move- we'll get one more bedroom and one more common area (family room upstairs and main floor).

new home gives us:

(1) Master bedroom

(2) I'm thinking of giving Canyon his own room

(3)Keeping Asher and Ivy together

and making the 

(4) extra room an office/ study for John (and me)

(5) playroom and toys would be in the upstairs family room (where bedrooms are)

and in the little Harry Potter/ under the stairs room on the main floor- tiny little hide out)

Canyons room or the office would become the guest room/ rooms if we get any visitors.

OR

I could put all 3 kids in the same room (and have an office AND a closed door playroom)

OR

I could give Ivy her own room and put the boys together. 

OR

[another suggestion?]

Thoughts?

(not that I'll heed any.  I may or may not have already made up my mind)

P.S. I have fond fond memories of Westgate.
