We had a play date with Grace's friend, Handley, a couple of weeks ago. Handley has a big girl bed. Grace saw it and immediately wanted one, too. She's been asking every day since then if we can "say goodbye to her crib and get a big girl bed." I've been putting this off for a really long time because I'm not ready to wake up at 2 o'clock in the morning with Grace standing over me and staring until I open my eyes.
Since she is almost 3 years old, however, Corey and I decided that the time has in fact come to say goodbye to the crib. So we did it. And night one was a giant success. Grace went to bed at 9pm (we may have had a little drama putting the bed together) and slept all night until her usual 7:30am wake-up. What a big girl!
Now that the big girl bed is up and running, my next project is to rearrange the furniture and wall decor and get cute bedding. I'm thinking ballerina theme...?
