We moved Gracie from a crib to a little bed.
The first day we put it together, she was begging to take her nap--at 11:15 a.m. When it was finally close enough to nap time, we couldn't find Soft Baby.
It didn't matter.
She went to bed, happily, without the baby, which is the first time this has happened ever.
(I later found Soft Baby in the pantry, near the sugar jar.)
Now when Grace throws a fit, instead of throwing herself down on the floor, she runs to her room, and climbs into her bed. During one of these times, I went in to talk to her. We cleared up the misunderstanding, but she still asked for "a little break, Mama" on her bed, when we were done.
When she wakes up from the night's sleep, or from her nap, she asks me, "clean my bed, Mama". She likes to have the comforter and pillows as they should be.
Today when we pulled into the carport, she asked if "little girl could listen to music--'turn out the light'-all by myself". Um, no. You're just not old enough to sit in the car and listen to music. Especially Nelly Furtado.
She has arranged some of the stickers, putting like with like.
She still waits for me to come and get her, just like in the crib. So far, an easy transition for this sweet girl!
Love the decorations! What a fun room.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely place to sleep! And how wonderful that Gracie loves it and takes delight in having it tidy and made-up! Is it the same room where her crib was?
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute, cozy corner for Gracie! Looks like she really loves it. Good job, and thanks for posting pictures of sweet Grace and Sheldon.
ReplyDeleteJ: it's in D's office. Since she just takes one nap, and it's fairly predictable, we thought it would be less disruptive for D to have her as a roommate. Sheldon has the nursery to himself and I've put a sound machine in there--it's working out well. I was glad for the extra bird mobile to put in her new nook!
