A BIG GIRL BED!!

Well, after going back and forth for SOOO long now, we finally bought Madelyn her big girl bed...and she is SOOOO proud of it! We didn't think we'd get a toddler bed, but after measuring and looking at how small her room is - it would work out perfect. We saved ourselves plenty of money by not buying a whole new crib...and now when Emily is ready for the toddler bed in a few years, Madelyn can have the crib back which will convert to a full size bed! Whew...

I love my new bed! "Thank you dada" is what she tells him all the time now!

She has done fabulous with her new bed! The first night, she was right to sleep after her usual talking and singing for a few minutes. The next night, right to sleep -- only one or two nights now she's gotten up to explore her room. Ben peeked in on her and she was giving sheepy sheepy a tour and even explaining what everything was: 'look sheepy, its a chair - here's closet - look at the window' Oh it was funny! We're lucky it's worked out, so far anyway!! :)

She's in there somewhere...


There she is...SOUND ASLEEP the first night!
