Gwynie's Big Girl Bed!!!

On Sunday night Lance put together Gwynie's toddler bed (aka Big Girl Bed). He has been asking me if I wanted him to put it together since we moved into the new house, but I wasn't ready...she is still so tiny. So we fixed it all up and made a HUGE deal about it. She was SO excited to have a bed like sissy's. We kept talking it up all night so when it was time to go to bed we laid her down and usual. Everything was going great for the first 5 minutes or so. Then she started crying. We went up to check on her and her diaper had leaked and she was saying, "I pee pee in my big girl bed". We tried to tell her that it was OK and changed the sheet, but she wanted nothing to do with it after that, poor thing. So we put her mattress back in her crib and decided to try after a few more days. We were a bit unprepared for this outcome because when Gracie transition she went from sleeping in her crib one night and her toddler bed the next and never went back. So we just decided...different child, different situation.

Well, on Monday night Lance asked Gwynie where she wanted to sleep and she said, "My big girl bed". So we laid her down again and this time...SUCCESS! She slept there all night and didn't make a peep. She has since slept there every night and all of her naps! She we are so proud of her and I know that she is proud of herself too! WAY TO GO GWYNIE!!!
