Karina is now 2 1/2 years old and she is not a baby anymore...and we marked this milestone by saying bye-bye to her crib. The bed we are wanting to get for her is on backorder so we just put her mattress on the floor. The first day we tried it was on Wednesday during her naptime and so when it was time, I sat her on the bed and said "ok you're gonna sleep in your big girl bed and if you need me just call out for me". I gave her a book and left the room. Ten minutes later I went and checked on her and she was out. When I heard that she was awake at the end of her nap, I went in and asked her if she had a good nap and she so very sweetly said, "yes...may I get up now?" She did so good sleeping on her big girl bed that day and has done great ever since! How time flies when kids are little...

what a little angel! I fear the time I have to take away the cage uh, I mean crib. We need to do it soon though before this baby comes. I think we will just put him in with Jacob on bunk beds for now b/c I love my toy room too much to make it a bedroom :) What made you guys decide to put Karina in a big bed? She obviously was ready. Maybe you guys should start thinking about filling that crib again with a sibling for Karina. After all storing it might be a big pain. :)
Well, there was no specific reason, but everytime we went to a store that had little kid beds she always wanted to lay in them and we'd ask her...do you want a bed like this? and she'd say, YES! So I had found some new room decorations and a comforter and so we just decided to try it, and it worked! The crib we had for her we bought used so it was getting kinda rickety so we just decided to give it away...so we won't be filling it any time soon or storing it...someone else will! HAHA! :)
Carla!!!!!!! I cannot believe you found me...I never expected to check my blog and find a comment from you! So amazing...what a small world. I read your blog from start to finish and I love it! I had no idea you had a sweet little girl...oh, she is SUCH a cutie pie. Do you not just love being a mama? I cannot put it into words, it is one of the best things that has ever happened to me. :) When was Karina born? Savannah will be 3 at the end of December, so I am thinking they might be somewhat close in age.
So I see you all are back in IL now...it was so weird, because probably about 5 days ago, I asked my sister if she knew where you all ended up, and she wasn't sure...I thought you might still be in Dallas. I see you also own your own business...that's so cool...I'd love to hear more about that too. Hey, sorry, I don't mean to take over you whole comment section...if you want to, please email me at OurMomentsOurMemories@gmail.com. So great to be in touch again...can't wait to catch up a little more!
Love,
Jackie
