Given that I didn't want to throw too many things at Lilly at once (I thought we would have moved by now), we've held off moving her out of her crib. But it just got silly. She looked like a giant antelope sleeping in the crib and it was killing me to lift her in and out. So we finally got her a toddler bed. I had no idea how excited she would be about it! She couldn't contain her glee as Tory and I put it together. The first few nights were rough, but she's been great since then. We have implemented a hard and fast "do-not-get-out-of-your-bed-unless-mom-or-dad-is-here" rule and it seems to be working pretty well. So well that she woke up from her nap yesterday and, rather than getting out of bed, she tried to stretch to reach a book on the floor and fell out of bed. She's so dramatic that she happily re-created it for me :)
The last night in her crib. I'm so overly nostalgic that I was sad. But doesn't she look huge? (And, yes, I also realize that we still had her baby mobile in there, but she liked it!)
Like a caged animal...
Even the box is exciting!
Testing it out
The finished product (though we ended up moving it perpendicular to the wall)
