This is Sydney's new bed! Sydney would get her arms and legs caught between the bars of her crib (despite the bumpers) and would scream when she couldn't roll over. Since this happened about 3 times a night, we decided to take the bars out of the equation and see what would happen. Well, the experiment was a success! Not only does she sleep in it (both naps and bedtime), but she puts herself to sleep in it without getting up a hundred times before crashing on the floor in front of the door (like we expected). Another plus is that I was planning on redecorating her room to be a garden theme anyways, and found this cute twin sized bed set the day after we made the switch! Coincidence? I think not! And of course what little girl's Garden themed room wouldn't be complete without a John Deere Blankey (it's her favorite)? Besides all that I think about the change, Sydney thinks it's just peachy! I'll find her reading a book there or playing with her dolls there. I don't know what she'll do once we get the frame set up, but we'll just have to wait and see.....

I always worry about the switch whem it time. We are going to try and wait a little bit longer with Chloe, because of her brace it is just nicer to not have to worry about her falling out of the bed and not being able to climb back into the bed. She is getting smarter thought and has figured out how to get on to the couch, it take a long time but she will get on. Darn brace, just gets in the way sometimes!

Aww poor Chloe! Sydney is really good at getting up on things. Sometimes we find her up on one of the chairs, just sitting. My worry won't be "how she will get back into bed?" it's: "WILL she get back in bed?"
