Last Wednesday we took down the crib from our house...forever! I know it sounds really dramatic, but it was a very strange feeling. Warren and I are not having more babies, which in and of itself is not the strange thing, its just that the babies we have are not babies anymore! So Gracie is in Ellie's old toddler bed, and Ellie is in a twin bed. We had to entice Ellie into sharing her old bed with Grace, so we lured her by telling her she could get Hannah Montana bedding. We kept the bed set hidden until the day of the swap, and when Warren came out with it, Ellie was so excited, a million thank yous, she was squealing with excitement, and then of course informed Warren, "Daddy, you're a genius!"
After that, Ellie was thrilled to give her old bed to Gracie and shared her Disney Princess bedding with her (all on her own), and even helped tuck Gracie in that night. Since then, Grace has done amazingly with the toddler bed both at nap time and bed time, I think she really likes being a big girl. Ellie still loves her Hannah Montana bedding and her big girl bed, although she has fallen out twice at night, but she still loves it. And FYI, she is giving "Bull Horns" in the pictures, its her "thumbs up" she IS going to be a rock star!
