Growing Up!

We were away in sunny Florida! Please note I did not say we were in warm and sunny Florida. It was NOT warm, but it was indeed sunny. I'll post more about our trip later in the week. I came back with a pretty bad head cold but I wanted to get at least one post up before I get back to work and the regular routine tomorrow.

Ally has been so good about using the potty for pee and poop that when we got back we all agreed she had earned her "big girl bed rail"

Fortunately Becky does not have any performance anxiety and was not bothered by her audience while she removed the full rail and installed the new bed rail on the crib.



But Ally quickly tired of asking "Is it ready yet mama?" and decided to play peek a boo with the laundry basket!



Finally it was ready and safe for Ally to use

She was super excited. Can you tell?


So excited she decided to play sleep in her new bed and that meant taking off her shoes.

She spread the blanket out and covered herself up. Gosh she is getting to be such a big girl.



I am happy to report that she slept all thru the night the first night and had a great nap today. She is so proud of herself and we are proud of her too.

Oh look at her all grown up! Sabrina has been in a big girl bed for awhile now but we do pull ups at night. I haven't figured out how to deal with her going potty in the middle of the night. She can barely get on and off by herself and I'm afraid if she is tired and it is dark she'll fall and hurt herself. Her room is upstairs, ours is down...so it just creates a weird thing. But it will have to be dealt with soon I suppose.
