“We’re moving!” TODAY meteorologist Dylan Dreyer tells TODAY.com.
The mom of three sons — Calvin, 8, Oliver, 5, and Rusty, 4 — posted a carousel of images on Instagram on Oct. 23 showing Dylan repainting the room from olive green to a more neutral color. She also included sweet shots of the boys in their bedroom (including their massive triple bunk bed!) through the years.
“This room holds a lot of memories and I thank God every day for each and every one of them,” she wrote in the Instagram caption. “And the boys have a whole lifetime of love and dreams ahead of them! Just not in a triple bunk bed!”
The boys’ triple bunk bed has generated a lot of discussion on Instagram.@dylandreyernbc via Instagram
Dylan has joked in the past about critics who urged the family to move.
“‘You have to move,’ they said,” she wrote on Instagram in 2022. “‘You’ll never fit in your apartment,’ they said. ‘Time for a bigger place,’ they said.’ This is how you do it in NYC. I think they all fit just fine … for now.”
Through the years, Dylan found a way to make the smaller space work for them. Her older two boys slept on a loft bed with a crib underneath. When her youngest arrived, she squeezed in a second crib next to the window.
And then, of course, came the boys’ triple bunk bed era.
At long last, however, the family’s chapter in this apartment has come to a close.

“We bought the place when I was pregnant with Calvin and now we’ve grown out of our two-bedroom apartment!” Dylan shares with TODAY.com. Now that the boys are getting older, she sees the value of changing locations to gain additional space.

“I’m so sad about it but also so ready at the same time!” Dylan says. “It was a love/hate relationship. I was mad everyday with so little space and the boys bothering each other at night: the wild running around but no space to do so. The boys definitely need more running room!”
