Big Girl Bed

 We got Mabel a big girl bed a few weeks ago!

She was so excited about it and has done really well staying in it.

She never tried to get out of her crib so I was curious if she 

would stay in her bed as well.

She has only gotten out twice...both times were during the day when

she was supposed to be napping but never fell asleep.  

On both of those days I was EXHAUSTED and fell asleep 

on the couch. I woke up to a little face above mine 

saying, "Hi Mama!"

We bought the bed off KSL from a couple that 

refinishes old furniture, the bedding I got from Target, 

and I got a great deal on the mattress

the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

Voila!

Spatially it doesn't work really well in her current room 

but it will be fine for now until we move her into her new room

downstairs this summer or fall.

 

We got a little side guard at Babies R Us because 

she is a CRAZY sleeper. This picture is pretty normal

compared to her upside down diagonal positions.

The other night she started crying and when I came into 

her room she was sitting on the edge 

of the bed saying, "I fell out! On the ground!"

Someone else is really enjoying her new bed too.

Mabel's bedtime has turned into Nate's naptime. :)
