Advice??!!

So... I'm thinking of doing some house re-arranging?  I've asked a few other Moms of Multiples their input & have gotten kind of mixed answers. 

Here's the situation:

Issue 1:  We have a 3 bedroom house.  One is ours, one is the kids & one is office/storage.  We have the basement set up with basically a couch, TV & toys.  The problem is, the kids prefer not to be down there, especially not alone.  Everything migrates back up & our kitching/dining/living area upstairs just becomes a clutter.  We spend almost all of our time on the main floor & by having that 3rd room as an office, it feels like "wasted space" & that we could make a better use of it. 

Issue 2:  We are starting to gender differentiate a little bit.  And I'd like Livi to have a little space for "girly" stuff.  And the boys have a little "boy space" for their cars {and their present Santa has hiding in our garage.}

Possible solution?  Move office furniture to basement.  Move Livi to her own room in what was the office {there is already a purple accent wall!.}  And split up the toys between the 2 bedrooms to make room for the office/storage stuff downstairs.  Of course some toys would still be in the living room & downstairs.

Ideally we'd have enough rooms to do it all... but for now we don't.  I just want to feel like we are maximizing the space we have.  And I want to make our house look the best possible way we can have it arranged so when Jeff (hopefully) finds a full-time job for fall, we can (hopefully) jump into the journey of selling our home & looking for a larger one. 

My worries:
Will Livi sleep without her brothers???
Will having more toys, like the big stuff, in their rooms impact my good sleepers??
Will they play in their rooms, or will it all still end up under the kitchen table?


We always planned on splitting up the kiddos into boy/girl rooms as soon as we found ourselves in a larger house.  Figured that would be a great time to jump to twin beds.  New bedding, new beds & boy-girl seperate rooms with new decor.  Two of the other b/g/b triplet mamas I talk to often moved their little girls to her own room around 9 months of age, their kiddos slept better that way.  I thought about it then too, I just felt bad for her being "alone."  And we had no sleep issues.  Now I hope we can still transition ok?  I have heard nightmare stories from another triplet mama who waited until right before kindergarten to seperate her g/g/b triplets & a whole year later still couldn't get their little boy to stay sleeping in his own room. 

So... what do you think??  If you were me, what would you do?? 

IF we do it, I want to do it around Christmas, when Jeff has some time off.  Just incase its a rocky transition.  Plus I can incorporate some of Liv's Christmas gifts to be things she might need to make a girly room.  I think Jeff's ok either way. 


On a complete & total side note, look how long her hair would be in back if it wasn't for those curls!
