My Big Girl

My little girl is growing up. Knowing that we'd be going out to Saskatchewan for the last ten days, we've been talking up sleeping in a big girl bed that we'd been storing at Mom and Dad's. This afternoon, before nap time we set it up and took down Chloe's crib. Once it was set up and her bed all made, we called her into her room to check it out. So far, she loves it. We rocked her to sleep after she played for a bit and then put her down for her nap it. She slept good and woke up very happy. AND, she didn't fall out of the bed! Here are some pictures of the momentous occasion.
Showing off for the camera!
Chloe's SO big!
"I'm so cute!"
First nap in her big girl bed!
Waking up from said nap!
Such a happy girl!
Before we left, I was sorting laundry and looked up from what I was doing to see this. She put it on all by herself!

To me she is still such a baby. to little for big girl beds and bras. So glad the bra one is a joke. Very funny! Being the grandma, I would probably keep her in her crib until she's 5.
I'm glad you all had such a special time with Great Grandma & Grandpa.

My house is soooo quiet again. The toys are all put away, the high chair is out of the kitchen, the table is back to it's smallest size, no sippy cups to wash, no diapers in the bathroom and the spot on my pillow that our little Tootsie-Lou occupied from about 6-9 each morning is very empty. We miss you all so much. Easter seems very far away.

Sue, your comment made me so sad for you. I pray my grandkids always stay close.
I know how fast kids grow up but Chloe's really pushing it with the bra thingy. That is so hilarious. Maybe she figured that if she was already in a big girl bed, she must be a big girl :)

Trav said...

i kinda agree with mom... you guys need to come back out here... seriously...

The picture with the bra is seriously awesome. :P Sorry, Chloe, but it'll take a bit before you'll grow into THAT. She is so cute. That one of her being cute, I just want to squish her. I love how kids' hair looks after they wake up. She has fabulous bed hair.

A bra and a soother all at the same time Talk about hilarious!
Sue, like Mitz, I got so sad for you. Grandparents should always have their grandkids grow up close by.

Those are wonderful pictures Chloe. Wow, you are already sleeping in a "little girl bed." I too like the one with you wearing the bra. Way too cute.

Sue said...
