Bedtime and naptime over the last week has been an up & down ride. She has always been an easy baby to put to bed but the transition has created a bit of a battle...most times she has cried at the very mention of the words bedtime or naptime. Sometimes she slept in the "big girl" bed while other times she went back to the crib. We never knew what to expect. However the last 2 days/nights have been easy as pie. She goes right to her bed, climbs in, and begins pulling her blankets around her. In fact I had to stop while writing this b/c my husband couldn't find her...turns out he had mentioned that it was bed-time and she had already climbed in her bed in the dark and was patiently waiting on us to tuck her in! How sweet! If that doesn't say "big girl" I don't know what does.
Here she is with her bedtime entourage which includes 4 lovies, 3 blankets, "baby", puppy, purse w/ cell phone, sunglasses, and bracelets, and her Sleep Sheep set to rain mode. Of course she'll add other necessities at any given time but these are the "must-haves" for "nite nite." Yeah, she's a little high maintenance.
And of course, what bed-time is complete without some snuggle time with daddy (and mommy too). There has been a lot of this going on this week to help make the transition easier....for all of us!
