Emma gets a big girl bed
It had to happen - Emma had been climbing out of her crib for weeks. Mommy and Daddy finally took the plunge and switched Emma's room around, taking out the crib and putting in her brand new big girl bed. (Well, the mattress and box spring for it anyhow, she won't be getting the frame part until she is a bit older yet!) Here is how her room looked when the crib was still in place. A few hours later, and Mommy and Daddy had gotten everything all moved around and set up. Here is the big girl bed and the other side of her room after the transformation. Emma was impressed with her new digs, and settled right in to her new bed. (You'll note she has her trusty teddy's arm jammed into her mouth, as always!) It is exta-fun to have her bedtime stories read while snuggling in the bed! We put in guard rails, of course, but Emma was very quickly determining that she could climb right over them if she wanted to - good thing they're really just there to keep her from rolling out of bed while she sleeps! Within no time at all, Emma had settled in to her new room arrangement, and she now enjoys being able to get up and play with her doll house or other toys when she wakes up, and Mommy and Daddy enjoy not having to rush in and get her because she wants out of her crib!
