Big Girl Bed

Maya finally made the transition to her "big" girl bed. We've had it for a month now, but she just wasn't ready for it, and there was no need to push it. We tried again this last week, and she has done so well! The first couple of nights were hard because she got up a thousand times. You think I'm exaggerating, but I assure you, I'm not. Night #3 I got mean and held the door shut, so she couldn't get out. She cried for about 15 minutes and then went and got in her bed, and she has done great ever since. I'm really amazed she adjusted so quickly. This kid doesn't like change. She's a lot like me in that way unfortunately. Don't mind the purple walls and pink bedding. We'll paint them eventually when we decide not to be lazy and can actually afford to do it. And, yes, that is my "big" girl sucking away on her pacifier. Our goal to have it gone by the time she turned one, 18 months, and then two have flown out the window. We don't want to traumatize her too much, and I think baby #2 is going to do enough damage.

Bridger still uses a pacifier, too. I had similar goals to get rid of it in the back of my mind, but have just been too scared to do it...
