Big Girl Bed

About a month ago, we decided to move Audrey into a big girl bed. We wanted to have her comfortably sleeping in her new bed before the new baby arrives in May. She was so excited about her big girl bed!! She was more than ready to give the crib to her new baby brother or sister. Going to bed has never been a problem, but the first couple of nights were rough because she would wake up totally disoriented. Naps have been great as well. The only issue we have run into, is that Audrey is waking up an hour earlier than normal. She used to sleep until 7:30am or 8:00am, but now we hear her door open anywhere from 6:00am to 7:00am. Bummer for Mommy and Daddy! What is so cute is that she will come running into our room and say, "I all done seepy nigh-night. I seepies dood!!" Unfortunately, it is too early for her to be up, so we take her back to her room and explain that it is still "nigh-night" time. Then, she learned how to step up onto her foot board to turn the light on and off. Fun! After a month, Audrey has learned to stay in her bed and not to touch the light...well, at least she stays in her room. There are mornings that we hear her playing with her baby dolls, reading books, or playing with her toys. As long as she is keeping herself busy and allowing Mommy and Daddy to get a few more minutes of rest, we don't mind. : )
So proud of her big girl bed!!

Can't wait to go "nigh-night".
