Kensley spent a year and 10 days in her toddler bed. I had hoped she would be able to stay in it until she was at least 4. However, her long legs had other plans. So as part of a really late Christmas present, we got her a real, big girl bed. We've been talking about it for a long time & looking for quilt sets online. We ordered her bed and the quilt set she picked it out all by herself... and it's really cute. Her bed arrived last week and her first night in a real, big girl bed was March 24. She was really excited about it until it came bed time. Then, for some reason, she decided that she needed someone to sleep with her. I laid with her a while. Her Daddy laid with her a while. Even her brothers laid with her a while. She wanted someone to lay in bed with her permanently. (Not going to start that habit) It was 10:30 before we convinced her to go to sleep and she eventually fell asleep under her pink covers and drifted off to la-la land.
Each night this week has been somewhat of a struggle. But I guess we've talked about her big girl bed for so long and how we would have room to lay down with her that I think she thought we would sleep with her every night. Oh well.
