We had fun at a nearby lake yesterday evening. Had a cook out and Emalyn was able to play in the water. Her favorite, favorite thing to at the moment.
That night she decided she was big enough to sleep in her big girl bed. (Her big girl bed is a daybed trundle).
I have not made a big deal about switching beds or pushing her into the change. Mainly because her big girl bed is in another bedroom in addition to adjusting to the new family member in addition to our slowly planting potty training seeds as well. Girl's got a lot on her plate!
So I have asked her every night before bed if she wants her crib or her big girl bed. The crib always wins. This night she said big girl bed and I actually asked her 3 more times to be sure she knew exactly what she was saying...oh, she knew!
She got in bed without a problem and off to sleep a short time later. At this point I'm thinking, Cam & I hardly get full night's sleep anyway, what's the difference if she wakes up as well, right?
The next thing I know, Cameron was checking on her as he was getting up for work...she was sleeping on the floor...apparently she had fallen out! Not a peep all night long!
Cam decided to leave her where she was so as not to wake her and went about getting ready for work. After walking the dog, he checked on her again and she put herself back in bed.
THAT I didn't expect.
Now, I know it was just the first night, and who knows what may come, but she's really not so little anymore!! So proud of her!
