| Bed now replacing the crib and gave her a gallery wall & book holder. Kate loves the space! |
After more than two and a half years, Kate made the great escape from the crib. In an effort to keep her from hurting herself, I set up her toddler bed. This bed uses the same mattress as the crib, so the only difference to her is the FREEDOM!
In August, we set up her "Big Girl Room". I looked online and asked other moms the best way to transition Katelyn into her new bed. Overall, feedback continued to tell me it would be hard. Lots of waking up with even more "go back to bed"s.
I am thankful that Katelyn's transition has been smooth. Nap time doesn't always go well, but the one that counts is night time. Night time is just fine. The only drawback is that she is waking up a bit earlier. I am just thankful she made it two and a half years years sleeping 12 hours at night. Sleeping only 11 hours now won't kill me.
She loves her big girl room. The second part of this post that I am thankful for is the ability to give her a bedroom. With Eric's girls we have 4 children in our 4 bedroom home. Luckily, Jessyca and Sydney wanted to share a room and were already sharing when we moved into this house. Katelyn got her own room. Most children who are fourth in line don't have the same fortune.
She's certainly starting to look like a little girl and losing her baby look. Mixed emotions! Couldn't be happier about how much she loves her room now. Thankful is an understatement!
