Georgia IS a big girl!

Since Georgia learned how to climb in and out of her crib, I thought I might as well try to transform her crib into a "big girl bed". I took off the front wall and put up the kiddie guard rail. She did great! She took a nice two hour nap yesterday in it and then slept 13 hours straight last night without getting up or making a peep. I'm so happy she transitioned so easily. I swear it helps that since she was 8 days old, she's always slept alone in crib in her own room with the lights off and her door shut, so this really isn't a big deal for her except that she can get out if she wants. She also really enjoys playing on her bed during the day.

And she's out!!!

Okay, a little update from this afternoon's post. Georgia is now climbing in and out of her own crib. Ugggg!!!! Her nap was a challenge this afternoon since she kept opening her bedroom door and yelling, "mama"! Eventually she did fall asleep in her crib. Bedtime tonight wasn't a challenge at all. She stayed in her crib and went right to sleep. Good thing the girl really likes bedtime and her crib! So we'll see how it goes. We may need to buy a crib tent or turn her crib into a "big girl bed", depending on well she does.

Georgia the Explorer

I caught Georgia in Gracie's crib today. She can climb in and out of it now. Normally she is never allowed in Gracie's room without me since she's been known to get into the drawers and put vasoline all over herself when unsupervised. This afternoon she crawled into Gracie's crib while I was changing Gracie's diaper. She can't get in and out of her own crib though since the mattress is much lower.
