Guest guest Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Because we all share one bedroom right now my friends tease that when they come over they won't sit on our couch...... ha ha. s. You know... there are many places in a home for making babies :~} I've managed to conceive two with babes in the parental bed. We never get to be together alone in our bed and haven't for years and it's really not so bad if you're creative. Too bad it took us 3 years to realize we had a spare bed AND a hide-a-bed to choose from! The front room was our love nest for a long time lol Kori At 09:53 AM 1/6/2005, you wrote: >I can't imagine sleeping with that many!!!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 My nephew will be 12 the end of the summer. He just decided to sleep in his own room. I think he figured it's not cool to sleep in your parents room when your in Junior High. He hasn't slept in there bed in years but pulls out the sleeping bag and sleeps on the floor.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 At least he made that decision and they didn't have to kick him out.even if he is almost 12 years old. My nephew will be 12 the end of the summer. He just decided to sleep in his own room. I think he figured it's not cool to sleep in your parents room when your in Junior High. He hasn't slept in there bed in years but pulls out the sleeping bag and sleeps on the floor.
