Yesterday was a pretty exciting day for our little big girl, because Taelyn got her first big girl bed! She has been eagerly awaiting this day for weeks now. It all started on our vacation over Christmas when we gave Taelyn choices about where she could sleep at each place we stayed. We brought our pack-n-play and we often had an extra bed in the room. So we told Taelyn she could sleep in the crib or the big girl bed and Kaelia would take whatever Taelyn didn't choose. Every time, Taelyn wanted the big girl bed. It was really cute because she didn't want to go to sleep, so she had tears in her eyes and her voice was half crying, half whining as she said "big girl bed" over and over again. Then once we got back from vacation, she didn't want to sleep in her crib at all. We finally let her sleep in our "big girl bed" for naps and put a big girl pillow in her crib for bedtime at night. But now Taelyn has her own bed, and she absolutely loves it!
After the bed arrived at our house yesterday, Taelyn and I set off to the store in search of the perfect sheets for her new big girl bed. The kids department had beds already set up with lots of toys and accessories, so Taelyn had a fun time at the store. She then picked out her own sheet set, and we went home to put it on her bed. She loves to play on her bed now as well as sleep.
