Big Boy Beds!

We have been looking at beds for our youngest son. He’s four and still in his toddler bed. We had always planned to pass the older boys bunk beds down for him to share with his older brother. But the two oldest seemed to play really hard in our old house, and when I took the beds apart when we were moving, I found that they had actually cracked the bed frames. So the second son and our daughter both got new beds when we moved in. I was hoping to get a year or two under our belts before having to look for a bigger bed for the youngin’!

He would love a car shaped bed. But I’m afraid he’ll grow out of that one way too quickly. Does it matter? I mean, paying for a bed that only gets 2 years of use? Or is it better for him to have a bed that he adores. This question made me remember the Friends episode where Monica got a new bed, and it was a big plastic car!! Just like the boys on the show…my baby would LOVE it!!B
