Big Girl Bed

We've made the jump. Clara is officially in her "big girl bed" and out of the crib. She's been ready for a while (and asking about it often - since it's been sitting in our basement for months). We were the ones dragging our feet, wondering if our peaceful nights would be through and hoping the big jump wouldn't cause major problems on trips/nights spent away.

As far as the nights go, they've remained quite peaceful. She hasn't so much as put a toenail out of the bed without calling for one of us (severe threatening works well for her) ;). And as far as sleeping well without confinement on trips? We'll get back with you on that one.
Binky gone? Check.
Potty trained? Last week I would've said yes. This week, I'm not so sure. We're getting there.
Toddler bed? You'd better believe it.
She is just getting so big, so fast!

Now if we could only figure out how to stay facing in the right direction!

Cute!! You can just tell in her face she LOVES it! Steven did too -- he was so excited for his big boy bed and severe threatening worked for him too! LOL Oh, and I STILL find him like that in bed in the middle of the night! I truly don't understand how they manage to do that! ;)

Such cute pictures! Yeah for big girl beds, and not having to hoist a toddler into a crib anymore. :) Getting closer and closer to being ready for that new baby!
