What?

This girl is so big.

For some strange reason I felt like it was time to take off that crib side and make her a big girl bed yesterday.

Before

After

After, After, After, After

It took a few extra lullabies, which only added an extra 5 minutes onto our bedtime routine, and she stayed in her bed all night!

Greg and I put a few pillows on the floor after she was asleep, just in case she fell during the night. As far as I know she didn't need them.

She woke up at 6 this morning, cried a litttle, then fell back asleep.

At 6:30 G heard some whimpering coming from her room so he went to check and found her, with her owl blankie, standing in her doorway. I think she wasn't quite sure if she was allowed to leave her room or not. She got into bed with us after that and we all slept till about 7:45. What a good morning!

Nap today was about the same. A little extra tucking in, and one more song, and she stayed put.



This morning I got the nice surprise of Grandma and Grandpa taking Tatum to the Sheepdog Championships and Festival, where she had a blast. In her words, "Dog jump in water! Got all wet. Milked cow!"

I was supposed to work, but we were slow and my shift got cut. So I moseyed around Barnes & Nobel, ate a delicious spinach and artichoke quiche, and got a cute wall hangy thing for my kitchen at Pier 1.

Just another day in my awesome life :-P
