moving on up.....

Well round 2 was successful thank goodness! About the time Dave was right in the middle of finals last semester I decided it was time to move Bennett from her crib in her own room to a toddler bed in Celia's room all in one fell swoop- I was so wrong! She managed to make it a whole hour and half with LOTS of discipline and left the room finally to return to her crib---Celia crying as well..."I don't want Bennett in my room, she won't stay in her bed and won't be quiet and I'm tired...." We figured our little Ben might be crib-bound til she was 5. But for the following weeks she would say "toddler bed?" and would pretend she was in them often. We knew she was serious when she looked at Cooper (my parents' dog) and then to Cooper's dog bed and said "Cooper's toddler bed?" So we tried again and this time in her own room....one step at a time, right?







She loves her toddler bed....she asks for it regularly and often times wants to cut her nighttime reading short so she can go lay down. She's sleeps on her belly and uses a little pillow....so sweet- The first night she fell out and slept right through it. Last night she fell out and didn't sleep through it....It was a rough one but she loves her toddler bed still! Way to go Ben! We're so proud!
