a day well spent


with our little Abigail being so tall, she doesn’t fit into her pack-n-play anymore. so for our monday holiday, we spent it in creation/project mode. here's what we came up with...



to top it off, she slept in it with only one peep during the night! it was heaven since she has been getting up multiple times during the night lately. i am thankful the transition at night has been good so far... but i am worried about nap time which we haven't had to do at home yet. it has been the hardest because she is contained in the pack-n-play... but not anymore. plus, she knows how to open doors. maybe some more toddler proofing is in the mix.
funny story about her first night in the bed. i got up at 1 am to help her since she was crying, but didn't hear her after that. when i went and checked on her around 6 am, i couldn't open the door. she had rolled off her bed, onto the floor (we had some pillows there) and rolled in her sleep another 10 feet! i could tell becuase she left a trail of binky and blankets. silly, sweet girl! here's to our second night!

Super cute! Jon had such a hard time sleeping in the pack n play over Christmas break too. I think were going to put him in a big boy bed sometime in March.
