Issues

Elena is having issues on moving into the smaller bedroom
so Luke and the new baby can share the bigger room. She
cries hysterically and makes up excuses why she can't move
rooms. It's actually quite funny. I laugh and she gets mad.
I can't help it though. I gave her 3 options. They are: #1 move to Lucas room
and he moves to hers. #2 get bunk beds and share a room with Luke.
#3 Move downstairs. I don't have anymore options to offer her. I
also don't want Lucas in a pink room. HELP. What are some good
ideas with 2 rooms and 3 kids, one being a girl and 2 boys. Let me
hear them. THANKS!

Maybe letting Elena help you pick out a new color to paint her new room will get her excited???

I have what you do: two boys, a girl and two rooms for all of them. This is a step up... for a year they were all in the same room. I let Annie pick out something special for her room. She picked butterfly decals for her wall. Maybe you could help her paint something that says "Elana's Room" or something that only she will like. Good luck!

Paint it pink or whatever and just move them, or tell her she can sleep downstairs ALL BY HER SELF...

maybe you could use a tape measure to show her that it's really not that small (like break it into inches so the numbers sound big?) and then keep bribing her with the decorating/or maybe a special new toy or chair for her new room. if that stuff doesn't work then i just get tough mommy on 'em and say "those are the options, if you don't choose then i will"

LOL Good luck! Actually I havent really encountered that problem yet because it was girls sharing, and they have always shared since they were too young to complain, and Josh was by himself alot. ;D
